    My husbands beer
    Tracey B.

    The place was packed, but the service was fast and friendly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We enjoyed the beers we had.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We didn't eat this time, but everything on the menu sounded good, and the food we saw on a nearby table looked great. Hopefully next time we can stay longer and eat.

    Dark Adaptation by Branch and Blade Brewing!

    I feel like I am having a series of excellent brewery experiences lately as I noticed I have been dropping a lot of five star reviews as of late. Branch and Blade Brewing is no exception to this string as Steve and I had a very enjoyable beer from this brewery. Dark Adaptation was the name of the beer we had from this brewery. A pastry stout style which I usually really love this beer was very good! We split the portion between the two of us as this is a pretty rich and boozy beer. It is barrel aged which accounts for much of that. This beer had a very appealing booziniess along with coconut, chocolate and vanilla which generates a nice complexity and is practically a dessert in of itself. Great experience with this brewery and this particular beer and I would love to explore more of their craft beer choices in the future!

    Two house cocktails along with wings with fries and Mac and cheese. Took home a 4 pack of assorted beer.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Good 2 house cocktails.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Chicken wings with fries plus Mac & cheese. Weather cooperated and was able to eat outside. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Brought home an assortment or 4 beers.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Place was busy and the staff was friendly and helpful. Look forward to returning.

    Slow. Diverse. Flexible. Set behind a nondescript industry park B&B is a great space to enjoy a road of great beer in warmer months. Unfortunately due that the offering of 5 pour flights bar service can be remarkable slow so patrons in a hurry should think twice about contributing to flightpocolypse by having groups of people all ordering different pours due to the sheer volume of options at B&B. Parking lot food truck food (VoodoBox) was better than expected and a great way to keep the beer flowing with delicious comfort food and sandwiches.

    If you like fruity and sour beers, you MUST visit this place! Always so many on tap and more to take home! The people here are super friendly, and we always enjoy ourselves when we visit! There is plenty of parking at this brewery, and they have plenty of tables for everyone. They have seating indoors, outdoors on their deck, and outdoors under their tent. They serve both indoors and from their outdoor tent, and they serve food, too, so you can grab a seat, enjoy, and stay a while! They allow dogs on site (and every time we've come, there are plenty of people with pets!), and they have live music outside (and their speaker system really works, so you can enjoy it no matter where you sit on their property!). Definitely a place to plan for when you're in the area!

    I was in Keene last month doing some work at Keene State. My second evening there, I walked over to Branch & Blade. On foot from downtown, it's a bit of a walk. But I was there is 30 minutes. Not bad really. The service was great! Very friendly. The atmosphere is a mix of wood and industrial, but I like it. It's low-key and inviting. I had the BLT and Fries for dinner. Got to admit, the food was good. Nice sourdough bread. Clean, fresh ingredients. Tasty! No set price for flights. Pours are based on the beer and range from $2 to $3 per pour. Ok, the beers: I had Anthesis (sour), Woke (DIPA), Lust (NEIPA), Mermaids Lemonade (gose), Electric Love: Mandarin Orange (sour), Lone Survivor: Psychosis (stout), and Lucid Nightmares (DIPA). All were very well-made and innovative. The stout was a solid no-frills beer. Lucid Nightmares was the standout - hazy, piney, floral, and clean. I also bought a glass, which I only do from breweries I enjoy, from my collection at home. Branch & Blade was definitely one of the best breweries I been to!

    What a wonderful surprise! Very good sour beer and food also great. Had fish tacos and also fries are the best. Will definitely come back to this place.

    Although Branch and Blade only opened a month or so ago, it is now our go to place for a delicious beer. These dude know how to make great beer! They are passionate about what they do and it shows. The vibes are super welcoming and the staff is freakin' awesome as well. There are some picnic tables outside for when you want to take in the awesome sunny days. Often times there will be very adorable, well behaved pups outside as well, which to me, is a super plus :)

    Wanted to try something new while staying in Keene between ski days. Given the current cold snap,…read moreit was right around the corner from where I was staying. I was solo so sat at the bar. Bartender didn't impress. Not sure he was experienced. Give away was putting olives on martini containing grapefruit juice, not mention an even number of olives (bad luck). The menus were fancy and I ordered a shaved roast beef sandwich with au jus. Shaved roast beef was on par with Steak-umms. French fries were your typical bagged fries. All in all it was ok at best. Was hoping for a little more given the quality of the other restaurants in the area.

My partner had the short rib ravioli which was also excellent. We are whiskey/bourbon drinkers and the one thing that whiskey/burboun drinkers like in their old fashioned type drinks are single, large ice rocks and not the little broken ice chips that easily dilutes your drink. These are so easy to make yourself. Just buy an ice tray that makes them. The other thing whiskey/bourbon drinkers like in their drinks are the bourbon cherries and not just the plain maraschino cherries. Just two easy recommendations to elavate the experience. The staff was also very friendly.

    A lot of times in local places like this you'll get many local patrons that flood yelp with five…read morestar reviews, but they won't be warranted. There have been many times where I've tried restaurants that had a lot of stars, but the local people are just inflating the reviews. - this is not one of those places. The food here is absolutely phenomenal. The speakeasy vibe even adds to the ambience. The drinks are strong yet not too strong. This restaurant is so good that I am now planning a trip with my wife and my friends to come back up to this area to ski just so I can bring them here and have their mind blown with how great the food is here. if there was an option to give six stars, I would!

    So we heard about this place on one our trips to Keene. First time we ventured over, we picked a…read moreday when they were closed. Second time, we just stopped in for drinks. Third time I stopped in I had dinner. The bartenders and wait staff dress in 20's attire and the place has that prohibition feel to it. They make high-end cocktails but I usually stick with a gin and tonic. The menu is limited but the meal portion was generous. I had the chicken fried chicken. It was a huge piece of breaded chicken over mashed potatoes and asparagus topped with a traditional white gravy. Very tasty. We've added this establishment to our rotation when we visit Keene.
