It wasn’t us! Parking on Thompson’s Point is managed and enforced 24/7 365 by a third party unaffiliated with Bissell Brothers. We do our best to remind our customers to pay for parking verbally and via signage at both of our entrances – but if you don’t pay, they will ticket your vehicle. We recommend paying upon arrival to avoid being ticketed.

You can pay and display a printed receipt on your dashboard via the kiosks that are set up throughout the lot, OR you can use the same app the city of Portland uses for public street parking to pay by plate. It’s called Passport – you can download it here. Anywhere you park on Thompson’s Point is considered ZONE 1213. Please see the kiosks in the parking lot for further information, or head to Thompson’s Point’s Parking FAQs.

The Portland Transportation Center is a 7 minute walk from our brewery and taproom, which has both an Amtrak Downeaster (train) and Concord Trailways (bus) station. If you’re local, there is a brand new Greater Portland Metro bus service stop right next to the brewery. And the Portland Trail System connects right to Thompson’s Point via the Fore River Trail, which is an easy way to get here on foot or by bike. Last but not least, taxis or ride share services are always a solid option.

We do not offer flights because we believe our beers should be enjoyed individually for the best drinking experience. We offer recommend pour sizes depending on the style beer you order (ex. 12oz/16oz/20oz). That said, samples and half-pours of all of our beers are always available upon request.
