    What a great little spot! I was so happy to find a place that still was serving stouts as many places stop during the summer months. We had an appetizer, a burger, & chicken & all were tasty. Their outdoor patio seating was nice & indoors was cozy. The servers/bar staff were great. Tusen takk for et fint besøk!

    Been driving by here for years , always busy in the summer. I got take out without any alcohol. It was 6:45 pm Friday . My guest and I ordered the same things , beer onion Soup and brewers burger. I'm not a beer drinker. So I'll start with the soup , I got it to go so they put the cheese in the soup. It was not cheddar and it didn't melt. What ever cheese they used , a hard cheese over powered the soup and took over the flavor. It came with crostini on the side but didn't eat it as there was no cheese to top it . The burger was supposed to be local beef and cooked medium . It was not medium . It was the most dry flavorless burger I've ever had . It was supposed to have malt aioli . I didn't taste it . The lettuce was bad. Fries were soft not double fried. No to go menus . I have to say the prices were pretty high especially for the quality we got . This food left a bad taste in my mouth and I won't be back. Might be a good place just to grab a beer .

    Ambiance: 9/10 Hometown support: 10/10 Beer selection: Idk bc I don't drink anymore but I'm guessing 9.5/10 Service: 10/10 Creativity: 9.5/10 So I give a 4 out of 5 for a couple reasons: 1) it was like 65° in the dining room. In July that's great, in January, it's less than desirable. 2) although the foods presentation and creativity were top notch, I think it just barely missed the mark as far as taste goes. The sauce selections/varieties were awesome but the flavor itself fell short. The fries were good, but half of the basket was the little crispy bottom of the bag stuff that is hard to pick up (came out super hot though!) Our chicken sandwiches were okay, but again, lacked the flavor that I felt the menu described. Not bad, just not something I want to rush back and get. We had a blast playing Cards Against Humanity and our service was awesome. If it was a bit warmer, we would have stayed longer and played another round. I bet in the summer the patio is where it's at, I would definitely come back again. *Oh yeah, Mac + Cheese was pretty good and HUGE servings.*

    Quick and easy place for good brew food and the prices are great especially for the amount of food you get! I left stuffed and super happy. My server Thomas was awesome and attentive. I'll be back! Very fun ambiance.

    Great beer and awesome food! Fresh, cold, crisp beer with delicious, fresh spot on summer salad including mixed greens,cumcumber, and strawberries topped with feta cheese and an unbelievable blueberry dressing. She loved, loved, loved her perfectly cooked burger topped with aoli sauce. We both washed everything down with fresh tasting Farm Saisson. Perfect and highly recommended.

    Went here for lunch and didn't realize they only had the brunch menu available. I can't remember the name of the sandwich I got but I recall it coming with an egg and ordered a side of home fries. The home fries were mehhh. I think they were trying to do something to make it special and put seasoning but it just made the fries taste sweet (almost like they were sweet potatoes), which I did not enjoy. The sand which itself was mediocre and seemed over priced considering how it tasted. I went with my mom who got veggie hash. It was good but nothing extraordinary. This place is pretty small (the indoor seating anyway) and doesn't have much space for large parties (larger than 5 unless you're okay with splitting up). It was super cold inside when I went. It was already cool outside (in the 50s) and it felt like the ac was being blasted with the fans all running. I couldn't even enjoy the food because I was so cold and it made the food go cold much faster. The service was also ok, nothing extra ordinary but nothing bad to say. Overall it just seemed overpriced for what it is. I'd be interested to see what their dinner menu looks like tho. The options seemed too limited.

    Such a gem of a spot! Norway Brewing is off the beaten path. If you're from the area, odds are you've heard about it. If you're from away, it's worth the trip! We wandered into Norway Brewing after spending the day exploring. We had heard only good things about the beer and the food, and needed to see for ourselves if it lived up to the hype. The establishment itself it's super cute and hip. It's decorated with light teal accents and tasteful decor that make you feel happy. As for food, their menu rocks, and we had a tough time choosing what to eat. We finally decided on a flight of beer and the pulled pork poutine. 10/5!!!! The fries were crispy, the gravy was homemade, the cheese curds were fresh, and the pulled pork was tangy. It was the perfect balance of all things holy. SUPER impressed with this dish. For me, the beer left something to be desired. I did like one of the beers I tried, but wasn't wow'd by them. However, do not let this deter you from visiting!! No two beer palates are the same. Also, they have ample decks of Uno on hand, which make any afternoon more fun. If you're in the area or on your way back south from a frosty ski excursion at Sunday River, stop in and warm up at Norway Brewing-- you'll leave happy! 4/5!

It was my birthday so I redeemed a grey goose martini and it was watery and had stuff floating in it like pine needle pieces? The olives were tiny and as shriveled as my exes heart. There was no bread without a charge or other pre meal taste which was disappointing for the price point. My risotto meal was actually inedible. I took one bite and had my husband try it and put down my fork. The risotto had the consistency of a dollar store bag of instant rice and the flavor of a watered down packet of chicken ramen seasoning. The steak was not like any other flank steak I have ever had. It was overcooked and still cold and the texture was off. It had a weird balsamic sauce that did nothing for it. Husband got a chicken parm and ate it all because he was starving but the sauce tasted old and had an aftertaste. I have never done this before in my life but I ordered a pizza while I was sitting waiting for the check. I had waited all day for a special birthday dinner and was left hangry in the end. There were a lot of people there and they seemed to be enjoying their food and the ratings were good. This may be a case of being a small town 8/10 but a 1/10 in Portland. Big nope on the books for this one.

    Wow! I can't believe that I am just now discovering this place only 35-ish minutes up route 26 from…read morethe Gray turnpike exit. Fantastic and creative brews (and "guest stars" like a Absalom cider), a very relaxing and chill vibe, a nice open space inside, and incredible seating options outside, even in the winter. Lots of outdoor activities, including x-country skiing free of charge, and plenty of parking. Not having been here before, my friend and I appreciated the clear signage of where to go for food vs. gear. We were fortunate to get to the barn before all the morning skiers arrived for lunch and were able to order and seat ourselves pretty quickly upstairs. We looked at the menu and went back downstairs to order food and drinks. The drinks we carried upstairs, but the pizza we ordered was brought to us. To pay and to order more drinks, downstairs you go. And with the free x-country ski trails, on a nice day, this place jams up pretty fast. Soon tables are packed, there are lines to get food and drinks, and to use the 3 individual non-gender restrooms. Just a few things I found a bit odd or inconvenient - 1) They have a wonderful beer selection, but don't do flights :( 2) The hybrid service model is a bit confusing and certainly inconvenient. Technology could certainly help smooth this out. 3) To pay, you either have to pay in full (and tip) when you order, or have to wait in line at the same line where people are ordering in order to pay, 4) 3 single bathrooms are not enough for the peak capacity Aside from the wonderful beer selection, the highlights were free x-country skiing with a warming hut, plenty of parking and friendly staff. This is my new go-to winter refuge :)

They have fireplace, picnic tables, high tops etc. I ordered a Pepperoni pizza with extra cheese and it didn't disappoint! My wife ordered a cheese pizza.

I would love to know where they get the decor for this place. I'd imagine a lot of flea markets (fabulous ones)? It's hard to pick my favorite decor item because there are so many, but it's somewhere between the chairs shaped like hands and the giant silver octopus tentacle under the T.V. Ooo and the corner with all the clowns! Drinks are strong and cheap. The bartenders are friendly. There's a patio, but it's a bit small. There are plenty of comfy chairs/couches. They have live music pretty often, so if that's your thing, you'll be happy there on weekend nights. The only thing is the space is kind of small for live music, so it can get really loud. This is an excellent chill option if you're in Hallowell and want to skip bars that tend to get a bit fratty like The Quarry Taproom. Highly recommend!
