    Making a trip in a couple of weeks. Staying in Lyman ME from Thur-Sun, and here's the current itinerary....

    Thu-
    HF-Warren Store-(maybe Lost Nation, just heard about it two minutes ago)-alchemist-Pro Pig for dinner

    Fri-
    Marshall Wharf-Oxbow-MBC-Portland (allagash, bier cellar, novare res, great lost bear for dinner)

    Sat and Sun are open for now, is there anything else I should hit? Stores (would love to find some Cantillon, but fat chance of that), bars, eateries, other breweries, cool shit to see?

    Is Funky Bow worth a visit?

    Thanks in advance!

    Well if you're already going to be in Lyman, the other Bow is probably worth a visit but at the moment I wouldn't drive out of my way based on the few beers I've had from them.

    Your Maine intinery looks spot on. Might add Infiniti (owned by same guy as Novare) to the list since you'll already be in town. Real nice spot, food's a bit pricey but their own beers range from $4-7 and so far, so good in my book

    MBC is up in Freeport now. Its probably about 20-30 minutes north of Portland. They moved from the industrial drive that Allagash is on.
