Elote

High Hopes pear and apple cider exceeded my hopes. It is really a nice brew, sweet but not too sweet and just the right amount of hoppiness. I loved it. But my new favorite beer from ANYWHERE is Galactic Tractor. You gotta love a nice strong IPA to like this one, and I do! Start putting this in cans like yesterday! And… the elite pizza is to die for. What a great combo of flavors!

Delicious wood fired pizza with insanely fresh toppings! The ricotta was so creamy, every bite was so good! The Stud Wall IPA was also a perfect afternoon beer. Great experience!

These two regulars have been scaring the bejesus out of our employees, but they have some important ghoulish updates for you. We’ve got a very spooky weekend planned: Thurs- scary themed trivia night 6:30 Friday - live music from the frighteningly talented @takodadionne SATURDAY HALLOWEEN EXTRAVAGANZA w/ @river_bottom_funkMy dearest Beeregard, I write to reg-ale you with a recount of a visit which proved most stirring, that I might share with you the interest and wonder of this historical occasion. Alas, the dark winter draws nigh and I can only hope for our reunion once more in the Beer Garden… Company A, 3rd Maine Regiment Volunteer Infantry is Maine’s largest American Civil War reenacting organization. The 3rd Maine is a nonprofit educational and living history organization dedicated to preserving the memory of Maine’s role in the American Civil War. Through living history events, battle reenactments, and educational presentations we work to teach others about what life was like for Maine soldiers and civilians during the years 1861 - 1865. We also strive to serve as a living memorial to all of the people who gave their lives during the War, and in doing so gave us these United States of America.We’re humbled & honored to take home the Acadia Oktoberfest Peoples’ Choice First Place🥇this year! Thanks to the community for coming out in support of craft beer & good cheer. Check out the great video by @liquid_courage_productionsTrivia Night in the taproom.
