Spyglass in Nashua rivals Treehouse for me

From the Barrel - great beer and people. Stoneface makes a great "get it everywhere" beer also made by nice folks.

It seems like the answer here is just “every brewery that I have ever personally been to.”

Love the beer that Copper Pig in Lancaster makes.

They do a really good porter and the imperial stout they made over the summer was to die for.

Just a little family run joint that serves food Thursday through Sunday. The specials are always worth checking out.

Brewers by and large are cool folks, down-to-earth and generally likeable.

If you make crap beer, you won't survive.

If you're not nice people then you'll also probably not survive. Blue Lobster in Hampton is an example of a place that made very good beer but the owner was a douchebag. Word got out and people stopped going there.

I like Earth Eagle as well, but I actually prefer their Somersworth location, the vibe always seems cooler imho.

And I’d put Stoneface on my suggestion list but for the burgers more than the beers.

Can’t go wrong with the OG, Woodstock brewery

Litherman's, Stoneface, Garrison City, Smutty and Empty Pint see my go-tos.

Northwood and Topwater are also solid in the area, but I don't go very often.

Outhaus, Long Blue Cat, Kelsen, Abe Ebeneezer.

Spyglass, Modestman and Deciduous are my top three, Kettlehead, Garrison City and Branch and Blade are also worth a visit

Surprised I haven’t seen Liars Bench mentioned yet

Abel Ebeneezer in Merrimack is fantastic. Woodstock is always good when we’re in the area also.

It’s a bit confusing because I believe they have a new location coming at some point and might already be brewing from the new place? But the place that’s currently open is the Townsend west location

Liars bench is fantastic. They are that quite kid in school that just got B+s or A-s the whole time. There will always be lots of good beer there. It may not be the best beer I have ever had, but having 5 solid good beers will always win me over.

At Lithermans weekly! Other than that Schilling and I highly recommend Coos Brewing

Do any of these places serve booze that’s not beer?

I’m not a beer drinker, but I loooooove Schilling’s pizza. Sucks that I can’t drink anything I like while I’m there.

Wow, that stinks. Sorry you had bad beer there. If you do go again and it happens, pull one of the owners aside quietly and ask them about it. Maybe they don't realize it. I would hate to see a young brewery/restaurant go down.

I normally drink either their Ice Jam lager or Kilkenny Red while I'm eating as it is low ABV, but take the dark stuff home in growlers. Probably hard to screw up the simple stuff I drink.

I loved the vibe of reklis in the white mountains. Maybe it will be different packed with skiers, but when I went it was absolutely amazing.

Schilling in Littleton is the best brewery in the state and should have a higher profile regionally and nationally. Very few breweries are capable of producing excellent beers in a broad range of styles. Schilling turns out great modern (Resilience brand) and central European styles.

I'm very biased toward Vulgar in Franklin, but also love Liar's Bench and Stoneface.

Stoneface makes the best beer I've tasted

I used to be very "meh" on Stoneface.

I'm about 5 minutes down the road, so get beers there all the time out of convenience, even though I'd preferred Deciduous.

Not sure if there were new hires or what, but I've found over the past year or so the quality and variety has become phenomenal.

My only issue is the frequency of rotation because it's now easy to find a beer that's great only for it to then be gone. I've got a single can left of "Danger Juice" I'm already mourning.

Pipe Dream in Londonderry always has a very unique selection if you are looking for sours and stuff you are never going to find anywhere else.

Haven't visited the brewery yet but Modestman is the best NH beer I've ever had.
