Discover new bars and find your new favorite craft cocktail during Portland Mercury’s Highball Week.

A highball is traditionally a mixed drink with a whiskey, bourbon, or scotch base topped off with ginger ale and served over ice in a highball glass. During Highball Week, some of Portland’s best bartenders are mixing up the classic with a variety of hard liquors, sodas, juices, syrups and bitters.

Highball Week is taking place March 14-20, 2022. There are more than 20 Portland bars serving up special cocktails for the week. At each participating location, you’ll find $6 craft cocktails available all day.
