5 Best Craft Breweries near Ashland

“We came here after walking Franconia Falls and wanted to get a drink and a bite to eat after fighting through traffic. This brewery is off the beaten path, literally. The service and the patrons were friendly and welcoming. It's small joint but has an easygoing vibe about it. There's tv to watch and plenty of people to talk to. The food was also very good. We had nachos and burgers that were tasty and cooked to perfection. I had the Redneck Ale to go along with my meal. I am not a fan of beer especially hoppy beers but the Redneck hit the spot and I ordered another round. That was how good it was! Keep traveling down the road less taken because it will lead you to a good cheers and good beer! Highly recommend this place!“

“Delicious beer and friendly bartender/owner/brewer, what more could you ask for? Oh you want more? Well how about a relaxed vibe with a nice view of the river while you are sipping on that delicious beer. Seriously, not sure what else you would want/need.“

“Had to check out this local home-based pub. It was great. A total locals' hangout. The bar was full, so I sat in the patio room, essentially by myself. (Rainy day, so didn't get to enjoy the outdoor seating options). Tried the red ale, which was great. That day a guest was serving beer cheese made with Woodman's beer. Delicious! I only had the hard pretzels but he said the house soft pretzels are to die for.“

“Twin Barns Brewing Company is a great place to hang out with friends and enjoy good food and drinks. Their drink selection is diverse. You can sit and have a conversation with your friends, or significant other, or play one of the assortment of games that they have on hand.“

“Holy crap what took me so long to come here??!! First, I love beer.. HATE IPA. The lookout Red was awesome. Little bitter in that good beer way, amazing color and aroma, if I was not driving I would have put down 6 easy. The beer cheese for the pretzels, I would buy it by the quart and make it part of naughty time with my girl. The meal was the double smash burger. Best burger in the area. Our waitress was AWESOME. I'll be back!“
