    We got a late start and didn't make it in time to hit the brewery but I did track down a six-pack of the rauchbier and liked it a lot. I don't have much experience with the style for comparison but I thought the smoke character was nicely balanced. Also grabbed a sixer of Henniker IPA which was decent but not really notable.

    Will look forward to getting to the actual brewery (as well as some of the other suggestions) next time I'm up that way. Thanks for the tips.

    I grabbed a sixer of the IPA, RVP, and the Rauchbier, count me impressed. Excellent and interesting beer at a great price point, what more could you want?

    I had their IPA and RVP recently and they were both solid.

    Had the IPA and the rauch tonight. Rauch was great. Rebuy for sure The IPA was good. I think the route 101 comparison in the OP was pretty spot on. This one is a bit heavier on the malt than 101, thinner mouthfeel, and has a bit more pine on the finish. I will stick with 101. Nice start though.
