Oxbow Question

If your folks are in tow, take them out to Newcastle Public House just north on Rte. 1 for a good lunch, and enjoy several of their offerings on tap there.

 

Plan for Rt1 approaching Wiscasset (the turn off to Alna/Newcastle) to be a horrible traffic nightmare on Fridays or Saturdays in summer. There are alternate routes - consult here or the brewery's Facebook as the time gets closer.

 

I've had good luck making sure I'm going thru this area early in the day to hit the brewery for the 12 noon opening time on Saturdays, even in the summer.

Driving in the winter is also very picturesque, I cannot recommend it enough.

 

I stumbled upon Oxbow at their 2nd anniversary party and after having an absolute blast all day, I left loving the place far more than a visit to Hill Farmstead, and thought all of the beer was outstanding, similar to HF. Thenceforth know to me as HF of ME. draft distro has been seen in NY recently, and I can only hope someone in CT will be smart enough to gobble it up so I can have it more regularly.

 

Are they good about updating their taplist online somewhere? I'm thinking about heading there either this week orne t and would love to know what's available.

 

Unfortunately for those that don't have facebook, their website points in that direction:

Give them a call - usually Celeste or Jake is there by noon to pick up the phone and answer your questions. But Facebook is always updated.

Visit brewery often, great place to enjoy a beer with great locals. There on friday they still had synthesis left, I took four bottles and a growler home.

 

Thanks, I had checked Facebook, just going to give them a call this afternoon.
