Every Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday from 6:30 – 9:30 PM, the Amazon Beer Company at the Estação das Docas has an all you can eat and drink buffet for the bargain price of R$22. The food is decent – nothing spectacular – but the beer is excellent (at least one variety is). ABC makes three types of microbrews on the premises: black, forest, and river. Black is gross. It tastes like a sweet stout. Forest is a light beer and is pretty good. The best is river, which is an amber ale but not as bitter as those in the US. The beer is served in 300 mL glasses that are usually replaced before you finish the contents. I usually get my money's worth with three trips to the buffet and four or five glasses of beer.
Estação das Docas is a redeveloped area of Belém’s once busy port on the Baía do Guajará. A few years ago, the state government redeveloped a portion into a restaurant and leisure complex. The area attracts tourists as well as locals. Most of the restaurants are pricey, but the complex sponsors free events all the time, like movies, industry shows, and performances.
