Ok, so this is not a brewery, but they do showcase many of the fine local beers that Bangor has to offer, so you should absolutely stop here if you want a nice sampling.

I’ve only been here once and I remember the beer was good.

Sea Dog

Sea Dog is the old faithful. They have awesome outdoor seating and Blueberry beer that you just HAVE to try. A great place to sit outside on the water, and try a Blueberry beer, or my personal fave the Sunfish (grapefruit!) and a Maine Lobster! A definite stop if it’s your first time in Maine.

    Left out Blank Canvas in Brewer. And perhaps some Ellsworth breweries.

      didn’t leave them out, just haven’t been there yet!! We were trying to get to Airline the other day but ran out of time. Where’s Blank Canvas these days? I’ll check that one out asap. I used to go to the old taproom in Brewer before it closed, but I don’t know where the new one is!

      1. Seth Davis

        They didn’t necessary close. Just found a better landlord/space, one street over. 46 Betton street. And Ellsworth has Fogtown brewery as well. Just down the street from Airline. 🙂 It is a summer adventure to hike and explore and find a brewery to reward yourself.
