Leaving for vacation tomorrow and we're going to Bar Harbour, Maine. Ive been working on my best Bostonian accent. 12+ hours in the car with my wife and 1 year old pug. Ive read a lot of books that the setting was in the New England area. And it sounds amazing. As the years add on I figure if I dont go now, I may never get the chance. We have a few excursions planned but after recently buying a house, we are planning on some rest and relaxation more than anything. We will spend a few days in Acadia National Park hiking and have a boat cruise planned for a day. However, one day we are going to Atlantic Brewing Company and Im thrilled about that. A tour and sampling followed by a BBQ. Anyone ever been?

Been to Portland Maine. Nowhere else in Maine thought, was there for work, and not enough time... But I liked Portland.

I've toured a couple of breweries, but not Atlantic. I'm sure you'll enjoy the experience, though. I've always found it fascinating to see the scope of large-scale brewing.

"Bah Habah? Can't get theyuh from hee-ah...."


Sorry - couldn't resist.

Like mashani, I've only been to Portland and points South. But as Dave says, any time spent at a brewery is time well spent, IMO.

I was in Bar Harbor about twenty years ago, Southwest Harbor too. I remember that it was nice. Bring a sweater, Maine is often cool at night even in Summer. Don't plan on swimming, I don't think the water gets over the mid-fifties. Have fun!

I knew swimming was lucky. We wont get too. But the coast is so amazing. Cliffs of 150ft plus into high tide. Low tide is death. We spent the entire day in Acadia National Park and saw everything. Golfing tommorrow sshould be stellar. Stoked...

Cool!
