Smuttynose doesn't get a ton of love but it's a New England brewery putting out some really good stuff. Finest kind and big a are really good IPAs and shoals is a real good pale ale. Drinking some clusters last stand (collab with stone) and it's interesting and good - supposed to be recreation of original ballentyne ipa. Give them a shot. If your in portsmouth check out portsmouth brewery too, they make great beers themselves and have most smuttynose on tap.

Just found a brewery that oipened up right outside the gate where I work up in Kittery ME. I could walk to it if I got motivated. :hihi: the guy that owns the Place is the man behind Kate the Great from the Portsmouth Brewery. Also the original Harpoon IPA.

Tributary Brewery - Picked up a growler of their IPA this past weekend....very good. Tried there Saison while I was there, also very good. Gotta feeling i May become their "NORM" :hee:
