North Portland's the Hop & Vine is the home base for this week's Aquavit Week 2013, a celebration of the Scandinavian spirit that runs now through December 14. At the Hop & Vine, pair cocktail specials (like the Golden Lion, featuring aquavit, Dolin blanc vermouth, Galliano, and celery bitters) with Scandinavian food specials (like Swedish meatballs and lingonberry jam). Meanwhile, other bars about town — like Expatriate, Rum Club, and Wildwood — are also getting in on the action with aquavit specials. More information here. [EaterWire]
