    After a long drive, it was nice to stop, stretch the legs and drink a few brews. Marsh Island is small microbrew sitting right along the main road. The outdoor seating are has been extended beyond the deck, which adds about 3 additional tables. They weren't serving any food during this time (end of June), which was fine for us. We were really pleased with the style of beers we had. Would definitely return if ever in the area again.

    The best beer in the greater Bangor area, possibly the state! The tasting room is very clean with a great front patio ideal for big groups. The beer is incredible-- my all time favorite is the Wooly Bugger Pils, with the Fission coming in at a close second. All in all, they haven't put out a beer I haven't loved. Worth a visit-- if you like what you try, they have cans and growlers as well. Yum yum cheers Marsh Island! Edit: they also have delicious sandwich melts on Thursdays & Fridays! $7.99 and oh so filling :P

    Love my flights

    Marsha island is one of my favorite breweries in Maine. They have a phenomenal IPA selection but also create a good pilsner, hefe, and stout. Their New England IPAs are top notch especially the Schwazy. The decor is great as the tables, bar and benches are made from live edge wood. Makes this place feel like a good Maine destination. I ordered. Flight, my typical order at at brewery and tried two NEIPAS, nitro stout, Belgian strong ale, regular IPA and October fest. All were fantastic. If you enjoy ipas or are in the Orono area do yourself a favor and stop by Marsh Island.

    A fantastic selection of local craft beers. They change it up regularly, but there's always something for everyone!

    Join the mug club, pays off in ~24 beers!

    This is the best f**cking brewery ever. Just go there. I don't usually enjoy sweet stouts, but the PB You Who is exquisite. Thx.

    They are rare in Maine, but Marsh Island produces some of the best in the State in my opinion.

    Bangor Beer Co. in Bangor, ME for a few pints & some easy eats for the last of four breweries on…read moreour trip in & around the city. Another new brewery for me, I was barely familiar with the brand other than enjoying the DISCO SASQUATCH DIPA in can back in mid 2025. These guys were established in late 2017 & will be celebrating ten years next year in 2027. This area is beyond flooded with taverns, restaurants & a good amount of breweries, but with a name like Bangor Beer Co. it felt appropriate to check it out while staying in the city. The brewery is attached to the Oriental Jade restaurant which also doubles as a kitchen for the brewery with a mix of American & Asian/Chinese food. A good amount of different styles represented on the menu with a emphasis on various IPA's, some lighter beers like a Kolsch, Lager, Gose, Cream Ale, Seltzer & more. Let's check out the three pints I scooped & get into the beer a little more here. I started off with a pint of the BRITE Lager, a excellent light bodied Helles that brought just the right balance of malts & hops. This was a great crisp & smooth starter with a subtle sweet honey finish. I then grabbed a 10oz pour of the HABITAP Kolsch, it was another solid light offering with a malty, bready & sweet flavor. Even at a light 4.5%ABV it still had a good amount of layers & was something you could crush a few of for sure. I finished with a pint of the delicious JURI IPA, this was a super hazy New England IPA that brought the juice at a perfect 7.3%ABV. Theres some guava & passionfruit gimmicks here with a ton of tropical flavor that easily made this my favorite beer of the visit. We ordered the Totchos, which if you have followed my pages you know I'm a tot slut. These were as good as expected with cheese, sour cream, pico de gallo, avocado & savory sauce. Then came the Bao Buns with Pork Belly which changed the game. There was a lot of food stuffed in the buns with the pork belly, pickled vegetables, hoisin & cherry chili sauce to finish it off. I left devastatingly stuffed along with the beers & couldn't have put anything else in my body if I tried. All your usual seating options here including tables, hightops & bar with a patio area outside. Plenty of beer to go for home or tastings with friends later. Great spot & definitely BEERGASM worthy with those light beers & dank IPA standing out. Cheers!

    I really dig Bangor Beer. They're not located in "downtown" Bangor but just a few minutes out near…read morethe big box shopping area. Let me tell you, there is nothing "big box" about this place. It's quirky and fun. Outside is a garden area for nicer weather and I believe they have live music at times as well. Graffiti-style murals including Rick & Morty (can't find my exterior pics anywhere) and other fun stuff. They even had a bouncy house when we were there. And yep, we bounced around like kids. The interior of the brewery is also pretty quirky, chill, and fun. The employees and clientele are super cool & welcoming. They have a decent food menu that includes stuff from Oriental Jade (Asian restaurant that served Chinese and Japanese food). Oriental Jade had been around for decades. If you're a Stephen King fan, you know all about it. Their food is yum. Anyway, Bangor Beer has a lot of other offerings like fish & chips, burgers, typical fare that tastes anything but typical. The drinks: Yes they're a craft brewery and they also offer cocktails and mocktails. I've only had beer (did try the NA beer that had & it was good). Their pours are of the highest caliber. The taproom has 12-13 different beers on draft at any given time. And of course, beers to go (cans). Draft beers in growlers too. Oddball is probably my favorite. It's an oat stout that sits just right on the tastebuds. The 10-12 is a great IPA with just the right amount of hops. Total A+ spot.
