    This place jumped on to my radar early on when they were first being written about in the media. They had/have a lot going for them. Firstly as my reviews show I like breweries based off all the high ratings I have given many breweries. Secondly how can you go wrong when the name and logo is dog related as well as many of their beer names. Along with that they donate a portion of their proceeds every month to different animal causes/rescue groups and donate their spent grain for livestock feed. Lastly it is women owned and operated, which is awesome to see as the brewing industry is in need of more diversity. Along with that they already and continue to plan on offering a larger variety of beer styles than just the popular hop-forward brews. This will lead to a larger variation of offerings to bring in more people. I went on their soft opening night and got to try out their first three brews. I enjoyed all three and look forward to returning to try even more. It is located in a downtown area of Lisbon Falls in a spacious building with plenty of seating. The owners/staff were friendly and very welcoming. I expect big things from this place. Another high quality brewery that is further out from the highly popular beer hub of Portland that I highly recommend checking out.

    Cool brewery in a part of the state that needed a local gathering place such as this. Very dog friendly, nice space and good beer.

I was honestly shocked to see a real veggie option on the menu that wasn't a veggie burger (although they have that too), so I had to try the chimichurri tofu. It was cooked well - 4 slices cut thin enough to give it a good crispy exterior. The chimichurri sauce was tasty. However, it feels like whoever created this dish has never cooked with tofu before or at least not very much. My suggestion would be marinating the tofu before cooking. The chimichurri made it somewhat enjoyable (I did finish it all!) but the flavor dissolves quickly as you chew through the tofu. I think marinating it will really seal the deal on that dish. Otherwise, the service was great, very friendly and very prompt. The building is quaint and bigger than it looks from the outside. I think my entree was a little overpriced for what I got at $23, but I digress. I see the vision and wish them success.

    I love this place. It's got an interesting spin on the classics, as well as some things you've…read morenever heard of. I tried the fish n chips, which were tempura battered and so good! The building is super cool as it's stainless steel everywhere. The service was excellent, I never had an empty glass. The menu is unlike anything I've seen in Maine and ever changing specials are must try. A little pricey, but worth it for the higher end experience. Bonus, they had nonesuch brewings maple cream ale that is quite possibly my favorite beer of all time now.

    This restaurant is "Wai Momi" (waters of pearl) a please near my home when I lived in Hawaii…read more Endlessly finding treasure, "pearls" every time I come. The flavors are beautiful, surprising and rare (at least in these parts) and very much welcomed. My first visit was to try the food, now it's the service that brings me back. It's a family and they welcome you with open arms. The ever changing specials menu keeps you on your toes and wanting more. It's adventures, exotic and sexy....yes, you heard me, the food is SEXY. This week, I was seconds away from proposing to a miso glazed black cod, before I realized that my or may not be frowned upon. It was silky, sweet and cooked beyond perfection. I paired it with Viberti Piemonte Filebasse, EXQUISITE. I can't say I've ever had a bad meal here, but I have had some better than others and this one stands alone.

    Black Pug has moved to Moderation's former space. It looks so good. Indoor seating, outdoor seating…read more(front on Maine Street) plus the seating in the back. If the Maine Street is full there is a large free parking lot in the back. Their beer offerings change but they still keep some of their staples in rotation. They offer a large selection of non-alcoholic options as well. Lots of thought is put into their flavors, beer types, the season. You never know what yummy flavor you may see. If you aren't sure what to get try their refreshing Kölsch or famous ThaI.P.A. with lemongrass flavor. Indoor and outdoor is dog friendly. Upstairs has event space for rent. Check their instagram or Facebook for special events, food trucks, new beer and hard selzter releases.

    It is easy with the overabundance of craft breweries to run with the safe and typical options…read more Black Pug certainly does not operate this way and instead experiments with unique flavors along with some more traditional brews. Today marked the first time I have revisited since way back in February of 2019. At that point they had only been open since October 2018. Hard to remember just how much the space had changed but it is still small but not meant in a negative way at all. It's a small but inviting and well decorated space. Plenty of as you would expect Pug pictures and decor, so very cute! I appreciate that they take risks with more unique beer offerings. Including their flagship THAI.P.A that uses ginger and lemongrass and they rotate different flavors into it. Jasmine and hibiscus beers and more. More traditionally they offer a kolsch as well. They also have bottles to go and offer growler (aptly named pug jugs) to go as well. If you can't decide their smaller pours are perfect to sample multiple brews. This visit my wife enjoyed their fruited sour Druidcraft and I got their smoked lager Camp Wood 4 Sale. Both tasty and well made. Friendly and knowledgeable bartenders will help find the perfect beer for you and make you feel welcome in their space. Also although we did not partake this particular weekend they were offering Christmas ornament painting, a great little craft activity! A smaller sized brewery that deserves support and is worth checking out!
