“Tony and the crew at Banded Brewing Co. is always super accommodating and the perfect spot for a local business to gather for events. We have had our holiday party there for several years, and hope to continue for many years to come.“
“Amazing beer. Friendly Staff. Cozy atmosphere. Good people. Go there!“
“Superb place, most friendly staff ever and our go-to place when we visit Maine! 👌🏻“
“Very cool place to grab some great beers! Definitely stop in if you get the chance. We loved the sours on tap (Frusch!)“
“What a great brewery and community! Owner is always on the premises, willing to talk beer and beer culture. Great open area, with plenty of seating. Pizza is spectacular, need to get Portnoy here. Beer is best in Portland, with wine, sours and soft drinks for kids.“
“I am the owner and operator of Hager Photography and I had the immense pleasure of photographing a few events at Rising Tide this year. A wedding reception and a private rehearsal dinner. This was such a perfect venue! Clean, fun, laid-back, and I can't stress this enough - TONS OF PARKING. Great location, close to the heart of downtown Portland. You would be very wise to consider Rising Tide for your event. I can't wait to go back!“
“Had an absolute blast hosting our Winter Film Challenge kickoff party here. Awesome communication, staff and vibe. Cant wait to come back!“
“Best brewery I have been to in Maine don’t pass up going there. Staff is amazing“
“What can you say?? It's New England's first craft brewery, opened a few months before that MA patriot one. :D They keep it simple with a quaint tasting room, plenty of seating outside in great weather, very comfortable and still fantastic brews!! Definitely recommend!“
“Greap place to chill and delicious craft beer. Please give people HEMP bags next time. 100% recycled ready bag. Better then paper bag that breaks in rain and all your craft beer is on the ground . We can even pay 2-3$ for HEMP bag to go. It's better for environment. Paper bag decomposition time in landfill in limited oxygen condition can take decades. Hemp bag in woods 3 months.“
“Excellent beer and staff! Thank you for creating real beer that is ok for those of us who cannot drink wheat-based beer anymore. Now expand to the rest of the US! 😉“
“We had such a great experience at this brewery during our visit to Portland! The atmosphere was perfect — plenty of seating both indoors and outdoors, so it’s easy to find the right spot whether you want to relax inside or enjoy the fresh air outside.
Their pizza selection was fantastic — lots of creative options and everything we tried was delicious. The brewery also offers beer flights, which was a great way to sample several of their brews. One standout was the Sea Dog Blueberry Beer with a sugar rim — such a unique and delicious touch that really made it memorable!
What really made our visit special was the owner’s hospitality. He was incredibly friendly and went above and beyond to make our family feel welcome and comfortable. You can tell he truly cares about his customers and takes pride in what he does.
Highly recommend this spot to anyone visiting Portland — great food, great beer, and even better people! 🍻“

“ACCESSIBILITY AUDIT:
Shipyard is accessible to people with mobility (dis)abilities, though it isn't marked well until you get outside.
If you try to enter the taproom from the main entrance, there are a flight of stairs down, so you may think it's inaccessible. However, if you go through the gift shop, take a left upon entering, you can go down a ramp to the taproom.
I hope management responds to this review by putting up signs with arrows at the taproom entrance and gift shop entrances and maybe an arrow on the gift shop floor to make it clearer that wheelchair users can access the space.
Thank you for keeping the door propped open so that it was more accessible to enter. Please also move the sidewalk gift shop sign towards the far door rather than in the middle and right in front of the entryway. Where it was positioned centrally, it was too difficult to get inside with a wheelchair or stroller and that's an easy thing to train staff.
The taproom has a lowered bar section too. 👏🏽
There is one section of bathrooms that are not accessible but there is a small sign (shown) that directs you to where the accessible restrooms are.
For more accessibility reviews, consider downloading the RollMobility app.
You gotta try the blueberry ale with a blueberry rim!“

“Awesome place! We went for the first time yesterday, and we were not disappointed with the food and drinks! The 🦞 roll was one of the best that we’ve had. We ordered a cheese plate and oysters as well, and they were both delicious. Hidden gem tucked away in the Old Port! We will definitely be back again.“

“Spent a relaxing late morning and afternoon visiting Mike and Leigh at their home, when we visited a local Micro Brewery & Tasting Room at 616 Main Street, Gorham, Main.
Mike ordered the "3 Little Pigs Pizza made with House Tomato Sauce, Cheese Blend, Nitrate Free Pepperoni, Italian Sausage and Bacon.
Leigh's choice was the Sebago Margherita Pizza made with EVOO, Cheese Blend, Oven Roasted Tomatoes,, Fresh Basil and Fresh Mozzarella..
My choice was the Spicy Muthah Clukah Pizza made with Garlic Cream, Banana Peppers, Fried Chicken, Jalapenos, Cheese Blend and Hot Honey Drizzle...
Kit decided to try the "Soup of the Day" which was a Creamy Potato Cheese Burger Bowl of soup.
All of the pies were baked in a very large stainless steel domed wood burning pizza oven that provided us with well baked hot pizza with good char to the undercarriage of the crust and the perfect crispness and soft fluffy outer crust ring with good texture and taste.
The fresh ingredients, taste and presentation would compete well with any New Jersey or New York Pizza I have eaten...
To balance the whole experience were the cold and great tastes from the Pints that we had with our pizzas.
My 2 pints were Runabout Red and Slick Nick
Mike enjoyed Frye's Leap IPA x 2
and Leigh had 2 Pints of STREETS OF ROME..
Everything was very delicious and filling.
None of us could eat another bite but I did take back to the Hotel a piece of the Cranberry Walnut Bread Pudding to rewarm in the microwave...
The dessert was very delicious after rewarming for 30 seconds, but the portion was small, maybe 3" x 3" x 1.5" for $10.00
Most other Bread Pudding are 4 or 5 inches for the width with a thickness of 3 to 4 inches“

“We stopped here after my husband a job in Scarborough, and wow… what an incredible surprise. The whole place has that true Maine vibe — cozy, welcoming, and super friendly. Our server Eric was awesome from start to finish. My husband ordered the pork schnitzel and absolutely loved it. I had the butternut squash linguine with prosciutto, roasted squash, arugula, and their homemade crostini bread… incredible. I even saved half so I could enjoy it again another day. Hubby tried two of their 5oz beers (Space Ghost and Santa’s Reinbeer) and enjoyed both. But the show-stealer? The apple crisp cheesecake. 🍎 Hubby took one bite and said, “This is so good it should be outlawed.” And honestly, he wasn’t wrong. It was ridiculous in the best way. We left talking about how we’re glad we live two hours away, because we’d be here every day if we didn’t. Highly recommend checking this place out if you’re in the area. Amazing food, great vibe, great service.“
