In my F&C post, commenter Mick points me to this outfit:
Go to "The Fish and Chip Shop" 1218 N. Killingsworth St. www.thefishandchipshop.com and your search will be over.
I had just read about this place in Portland Monthly Magazine and I had it in mind for today, but sick kiddies kept me close to home. So I will get there soon and report.
The Oaks Bottom, to their great credit, has kept a few rotating taps and today they had the Russian River 'Damnation' on tap. This belgian style ale has received a lot of attention but I found it strange and antiseptic, so I went for the Diamond Knot 'Industrial IPA' which was pretty good and yet another hugely hopped beer of the type that I keep running into (and good for post tax prep cleansing).
The Oaks Bottom also played a steady stream of late eighties pop/rick and, perhaps depressingly, I found I knew every word to every song.

I don't know if this was mentioned on your original post, but Laurelwood Brewing Co.(I've only been to the one on NW 23rd) also has really delicious fish and chips. The fish & chips platter is around $12 or $14, but you can also get a sandwich that is a little cheaper. The fish is served in nice, meaty hunks that are fried to perfection. You also can't go wrong with their rotating tap!
I have been to the Laurelwood a number of times (though only the Sandy location), but strangely enough I don't think I have ever tried theirs. I shall do so next time. I am kind of now committed to trying it wherever I can for a while.
