Wow the menu sounds fantastic and my girlfriend and I love Ninkasi! We have been needing to take some time and get out and this would be a perfect opportunity.
August 15, 2011 at 14:40
I absolutely love Ninkasi (especially their summer release Maiden the Shade and Oatis Stout). The idea of a beerunch – pairing mid-morning food with beer – is genius.
August 15, 2011 at 14:49
I would LOVE to take my BFF to this!! Sounds like a wonderful time, with fabulous food and awesome beers to boot!! Thanks for the giveaway!
August 15, 2011 at 14:52

August 15, 2011 at 16:23
Brunch: good. Ninkasi beer: even better.
August 15, 2011 at 16:30
Ninkasi and East Burn, a perfect combination!
August 15, 2011 at 16:52
Ninkasi, ElK meatloaf and good friends…life doesn’t get any better!!!

Because I love brunch and I love ninkasi
August 15, 2011 at 23:19
I live right by East Burn! I could get out of bed stumble over to East Burn have my fill of food and drink and stumble back. If only I win, it may be the best Sunday ever.
August 15, 2011 at 23:23
My bestie is dying to go here. I would love to win so her and her honey could go for a date Away from the little one
August 16, 2011 at 01:23
Beer is good. Ninkasi is great!
August 16, 2011 at 01:23
OMGEEZY. this is a match made in valhalla. me and beer and brunch and my boyfriend’s birthday. and him, I guess, unless its allowed that i eat/drink both portions by myself…
August 16, 2011 at 08:38
Sounds like a really tasty menu. I love East Burn, have not explored enough of their menu, though.
August 16, 2011 at 13:17
You’ll need an outta town visitor’s perspective on this. I will be drinking lots of Oregon beer next week with my lovely wife, Mel. And I’m expecting it all to be good (at least drinkable). We’ll be in the Schlafly Beer tees.
August 16, 2011 at 15:42
Sounds amazing!
I would love to go with my guy and have some amazing brunch and brews!
August 16, 2011 at 16:33
Beer, brunch, rockfest…. that would be the day to remember forever!
August 16, 2011 at 17:15
Yes please! I can’t think of a better brunch
August 16, 2011 at 21:18
Tried Ninkasi recently at the Monterey Beer Fest and fell in love. Paired with brunch it would blow my mind.
August 17, 2011 at 09:13
Sounds like a perfect start to a day! Count me in.
August 17, 2011 at 10:34
I want to win, pick me!
August 17, 2011 at 14:57
Oh for the love of beer, this sounds lovely! Yes please!
August 17, 2011 at 18:02
I keep hearing about their food but have never tried. I’m curious.
August 18, 2011 at 10:33
My boyfriend and i love Ninkasi. We even volunteered to work their tap at the oregon brewers fest.
Looking over the brunch menu was a tease! Everything looks so amazing. We also recently moved about 4 blocks away from East Burn and this would give us an amazing chance to explore a part of this side of Portland.
Due to a recent layoff from the public schools i havnt had the cash money flow to do anything to fun like this, it would be an awesome treat for my man and i :) please help me out!
August 18, 2011 at 14:04
I’d love to try the three-course gourmet brunch prepared by executive chef Joseph Dougherty.
Thanks
Zee
August 18, 2011 at 14:19
I’ve never had Ninkasi and brunch at the same time. If my head exploded during brunch I’d clean it up.
August 18, 2011 at 15:38
Damn this looks good! East Burn!
August 18, 2011 at 16:39
I love Ninkasi ales, and beer for breakfast sounds like a great idea!
August 18, 2011 at 17:47
I have never been to East Burn but have heard good things. I have, however, had a Ninkasi or two in my day…
August 18, 2011 at 18:01
I love beer so much. and my boyfriend is really depressed. so this would make us both happy.
August 18, 2011 at 18:06
Beer and Breakfast – a winning combination in my book.
August 18, 2011 at 18:07
EastBurn is one of my favorite haunts and would love to be able to take part!
I also like the idea of a Beerunch and Ninkasi rulez.
yeah.
August 18, 2011 at 18:10
Oh please please let me win this! It sounds AWESOME!
August 18, 2011 at 18:10
stout ice cream, yum. ninkasi, yummier
August 18, 2011 at 18:11
Beer for brunch is akin to cake for brunch. Both a win.
August 18, 2011 at 18:15
I like beer i like food i like east burn
August 18, 2011 at 18:29
Yes, pick me, please. Okay?
August 18, 2011 at 18:37
This beer brunch would be a grrrrrrreat 23rd birthday present.
August 18, 2011 at 18:47
I would love to win something like because I’ve never done something like this. Not to mention, I’ve never been to East Burn. I would love to start out on a good foot with them buy winning tickets to this event.
August 18, 2011 at 18:47
Mmmmmmm, beer…..Me and Homer are on the same page . That goes for the food, too.
August 18, 2011 at 18:50
You mean its not normal to have Tricerahops at brunch EVERY weekend????
August 18, 2011 at 18:50
Trippy food to go with the trippy beer.
August 18, 2011 at 19:02
I would love to have tickets to this! I love Ninkasi and this sounds like a great time. Great beer for sure and sounds like fantastic food!
August 18, 2011 at 19:20
I’ll have an out-of-towner in to visit – what better way to show off portland than brunch with beer?!?
August 18, 2011 at 19:37
Great event. Would love to go
August 18, 2011 at 19:54
Ninkasi, great food and East Burn. What is not to like? My wife and I are huge fans of all three and can’t wait to attend this event (as long as we get free tix!)
August 18, 2011 at 19:54
Transcend me please…wow I’m salavating after reading this menu. Makes me want to get up and at ‘em on a Sunday. Ninkasi rocks!
August 18, 2011 at 20:04
I’m new to Portland, really love food, really really love beer for breakfast (uhhhh… I mean brunch), and would love the opportunity to meet some new Portland friends who love the same things.
That being said, I’d also love to see how a 3-courser that goes honey scone->biscuit-> honey pazelle won’t be monotonous by the end of the meal. I’d love to win these tickets and I’d love to be proven wrong. I think I’ve exceeded the “I love” quota for one post
August 18, 2011 at 20:16
Ninkasi beer brunch….YES PLEASE!
August 18, 2011 at 20:22
My husband would love me even more if I took him to this. <3
August 18, 2011 at 20:52
I’m the biggest brunch and beer fan!!! I really need to go to Ninkasi beer brunch!
August 18, 2011 at 21:49
Looks crazy good
August 18, 2011 at 21:50
I’ve never had elk but I’m sure it’s delicious!!
August 18, 2011 at 21:53
Hey! We love Ninkasi, too! (But we love the EBurn more). Coincidentally, I volunteered, and was chosen, to work my boyfriend’s tap at the Oregon Brewers Fest. It was a blast–you should have seen the heads I was giving! We adore the East Burn, and we goddamn LOVE brunch.
August 18, 2011 at 22:53
Awesome website
August 18, 2011 at 23:24
I’m not smart enough to know which beers to pair with my breakfast. Please pick me!
August 19, 2011 at 00:25
I miss Portland so much, as I have left for studies in NYC. It’s not only the city I miss, but most definitely the great NW food and beer! I would love to share my love for the NW with my favorite person and my favorite brewery!
August 19, 2011 at 04:05
I’ve never thought about eating oatmeal with an Oatmeal Stout….and now i will try this someday. This brunch sounds awesome!
August 19, 2011 at 07:54
Wait……….you can have beer at 10am!!!!Count me in :)
August 19, 2011 at 08:31
Beer brunches are great — and what could be better than Ninkasi beer and East Burn food — both excellent!
August 19, 2011 at 08:39
Attending this brunch would just absolutely tickle my fancy! I love the idea of attending an event where it is considered socially acceptable to sling into the pint shortly upon waking up! I get too many dirty looks when I try to attempt such a feat elsewhere ;-)
Cheers! RCTID
August 19, 2011 at 08:47
My husband and I just had our first experience at East Burn last weekend. We opted for the “Hop of the Morning” which features any of the Brunch choices PLUS endless pints or Mimosas. I had the Lobster and Crawfish Benedict and my hubby had the Biscuits and Elk sausage gravy…AMAZING!!!! Please pick me; I cannot WAIT to get back there!
August 19, 2011 at 08:54
hmmmmm. NINKASI? I don’t know who that is, I’m becoming a beer-snob, and do enjoy Eastburn meals but probably wouldn’t go byself so if I win. I can take my friend and probably spread the exciting news to all my food and beer snobby friends :)
August 19, 2011 at 08:55
Oh Ninkasi, how I love thee. So much, that I gave away a gift pack to the winner of our baby pool this year. A brunch break from baby would be great! New parents + EastBurn + Ninkasi = heaven.
August 19, 2011 at 09:02
Bow down!
August 19, 2011 at 09:04
I heart the idea of this brunch:)
August 19, 2011 at 09:08
I never knew beer was actually supposed to go with things like delicious food. Sign me up!
August 19, 2011 at 09:08
Recent transplant to PDX and dying to get out and do fun things ! Portland is such a great food and beer town and I want to explore it, but, I am currently unemployed and dining out rarely happens. Please make a guy happy and let me enjoy a great brunch with great beer !
August 19, 2011 at 09:24
I have never had beer with brunch, and the pairings sound good. This would be a nice way to start the day before our drunken-softball-in-the-park event that afternoon.
August 19, 2011 at 10:04
Brunch is my favorite meal. Pair it with beer and it sounds like the perfect way to start the day.
August 19, 2011 at 10:15
I’d love to win this because I really enjoy eating new and interesting things but hate the word “foodie” and I Ninkasi hasn’t missed yet-all of their offerings are delicious.
August 19, 2011 at 10:27
I have wanted to try the beer dinners at East Burn because the food there is impressive and I love beer. I would love to go to the brunch to try tge delicious pairings with Ninkasi.
August 19, 2011 at 10:42
This would make a perfect 15th anniversary date!!
August 19, 2011 at 10:52
my boyfriend and i are huge ninkasi fans … love a cold total dom anytime of the day. we live right near east burn and have never been inside. what a great way to introduce us to a nearby hot spot!
August 19, 2011 at 11:29
Sounds fun, I would love to go!
August 19, 2011 at 11:55
Good food and beer? Sounds delightful!
August 19, 2011 at 12:16
Ever since my first Ninkasi I have not been able to put it down. I love it!!! And there is something really yumtastic about having some good food with some good beer. I just hope that they provide nap and story time afterwards :)
August 19, 2011 at 13:08
Ninkasi is the best new beer in the Northwest, and a brunch pairing sounds like the best way to show it off! I’d love to taste what the experts think are super complimentary combinations!
August 19, 2011 at 13:22
Ninkasi and East Burn are two of my favorite Portland things! pick me to win!
August 19, 2011 at 15:37
I love East Burn, Joe is an amazing chef and he works well with Ninkasi. Pick me!!!!!!!!!!
August 19, 2011 at 16:32
Beside Ninkasi being excellent beer, the food sounds exceptional too. Would love to attend!
August 19, 2011 at 17:16
My best friend and I are moving to Portland this weekend. This would be a wonderful start to a new chapter in our lives in such an awesome new city!
August 19, 2011 at 17:25
WOuld love to be Totally Dominated by beer and food
August 19, 2011 at 21:56
A buddy of mine had an internship in San Fran over the summer. He took the last month to drive North for travel fun. I am flying out to Seattle to meet up with him and then we are driving down to Portland and will be in town from Aug. 27-Aug. 30. We are playing it by ear (thoughts on where that saying came from????), riding the wind, going with the flow, wandering without being lost. This event sounds pretty amazing, we would love to attend via a golden ticket.
August 19, 2011 at 22:12
Elk Meatloaf!! could erase the horrific childhood memories of of meatloaf – especially when paired with a great beer!!
August 19, 2011 at 22:34
Yum
August 20, 2011 at 12:17
Elk for breakfast!? Now I can have it for every meal!
August 20, 2011 at 13:15
Would be great to attend!
August 20, 2011 at 14:01
The all important 4 B’s…Beer, Brunch, Burnside and Broke. Pick me!!!
August 20, 2011 at 16:45
Sounds exactly like my scene! Would love to taste all that great food and beer!
August 20, 2011 at 17:08
Looks fantastic! We would love to try this out. I know the food there is spectacular!
August 20, 2011 at 18:18
Ninkasi is my favorite brewery ever. The brunch sounds amazing. It’d be really interesting to see how beer pairs with food, and for breakfast!! Hooray!
August 20, 2011 at 18:29
Beer pancakes.
August 21, 2011 at 11:56
I want all the beer!
August 21, 2011 at 14:34
I’ve been looking for a great 1st date occasion.
August 21, 2011 at 22:05
I love brunch and beer.
August 21, 2011 at 22:13
Would love to pair this with attending the Bargain Hunting event @ the Crystal Ballroom!
August 24, 2011 at 10:25
I need to know some good pairings :D
August 24, 2011 at 15:38
East Burn throws some awesome parties….I’ve heard. Never been to one. It’s probably time.
August 24, 2011 at 18:54
Because beer is the cause of-and solution to-all of life’s problems!
August 25, 2011 at 01:32
My husband loves beer… and bunch! I’m a big fan of brunch myself, and would love to surprise him with tickets to this awesome-sounding event!
August 25, 2011 at 17:15
this looks so good and so many people are responding!! I would love to go to this and have some Tricerahops Double IPA, which is my favorite beer!
August 25, 2011 at 18:45
Ninkasi is one of my wife and my favorite breweries. She’s off to Idaho in a couple weeks but we’re together now, so a beer brunch would be ideal!
August 26, 2011 at 07:36
Who can resist a free brunch? Answer is no one! But this is not just a free brunch, this is the ultimate NW style brunch as only Portlanders can conjure. I definitely want to win!
August 26, 2011 at 10:44
Ninkasi is the ancient Sumerian matron goddess of the intoxicating beverage[1], beer.
Her father was Enki, the lord Nudimmud, and her mother was Ninti, the queen of the Abzu. She is also one of the eight children created in order to heal one of the eight wounds that Enki receives. Furthermore, she is the goddess of alcohol. She was also borne of “sparkling fresh water.” She is the goddess made to “satisfy the desire” and “sate the heart.” She would prepare the beverage daily.[1]
