Rising Tide Brewing Company is an independent, family-owned brewery that anchors Portland, Maine’s vibrant East Bayside neighborhood. We are guided by creative flavors, quality, consistency, community, and a love of all things outdoors. Rising Tide supports our farmers, using local ingredients in every beer.

Our beers are available in cans and on draft in our tasting room in Portland’s East Bayside neighborhood and at select locations in Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Rhode Island. Our beers are unfiltered and unpasteurized.  Each can is alive! For the best experience, handle gently, store cool, and drink fresh.

I felt so happy enjoying a couple of beers with my dog by my side.!! The staff was super friendly, and the vibe was wonderfully relaxed. This spot will definitely be a regular pit stop for my family!

You can’t go wrong ordering the Bayside Double smash burger and a flight of beers. Nice, open space with picnic table seating

Not a lot of options for sour beers but the only option they had was very good. As for food, hands down the best smash burger I have ever had. We ordered the Bayside double; the bun was fresh and meat was perfectly grilled and caramelized.We also ordered the my Greek vacation (falafel) and it was good as well.

Great vibes. I loved the Blueberry Sour, and my partner loved the house Hefeweizen. Bartenders were super friendly. Highly recommend!

We visited hoping to go to the comedy, but it was postponed. We stayed for dinner and drinks and it was very good. The beers were excellent. The food was great... a burger and grilled cheese. French fries were excellent.

9/30/23 - Nice Brewery. Lots of seating. My fiancé got a flight and chicken tenders and fries. The chicken tender and fries were pretty good. I loved the atmosphere of the place. Would enjoy to come back if we visit Maine again.

We absolutely love this place whenever we have friends visiting. It's our go-to spot due to its spacious setting that's perfect for groups. The best part is the incredible variety on the menu that caters to every taste bud, regardless of age. Not only are there a range of beers but also a fun food menu. We enjoy the option of sitting at the large picnic tables outside to soak up the sun or indoors, where we can catch a view of the game and avoid the rain.When it comes to food, my personal favorite is the salad with the added falafel, which bursts with flavors. However, tonight, we tried the French onion burger, and it was a delightful experience. Just take a look at that irresistible cheese crisp in the photo! The fries are thin and crispy (think McDonald's), and don't forget to try them with their mouthwatering aioli, just enough spice added in. While the chicken fingers are tasty, they do come in smaller portions for the price. Overall, this place is fantastic, offering a great ambiance, a diverse menu, and some truly delectable options.

I keep my reviews short and sweet!We loved that the prices were very reasonable and they had plenty of options to select from. I prefer seltzers and they had a couple low sugar options which were both very good! My husband got the summer flight and we liked all of them but didn’t love any of them. Fortunately, we didn’t dislike anything we tried! There was also a ton of seating and the servers were very nice and quick! We didn’t wait long at all; however we were there at 2pm on a Tuesday, so I imagine it’s not usually that busy.I do think it’s important to note that this is a progressive establishment. We don’t mind that at all, but I know for others it can be off putting. So if gender neutral bathrooms, Black Lives Matter signs and other flags would make you shop elsewhere this place isn’t for you. Again, we don’t mind at all and enjoyed our time here very much!! We do like to give others a heads up who like to spend money at places that align with their beliefs!
