It's tough to distinguish Exeter Brewing from its predecessor, Sawbelly Brewing. Some of the servers remained after Sawbelly's closing. This is a great place in Exeter to meet after work. The bar is really nice. I ate on the restaurant side. The beer is fine but boring. I tried 3 of their hazy IPAs and they were practically indistinguishable. The oatmeal stout was OK but a bit sweet. I tried the wings, I don't not recommend them as they were dry on the inside, oily on the outside, and had no distinguishable flavor and no dipping sauce. They looked ugly on the plate. The Nashville Chicken was juicy but the honey sauce tasted peculiar and the honey seemed cheap. I would not get this again. The Monkfish looked beautiful on the plate when served but missed the mark, although not a disaster. The fries were served with low salt which I prefer. The owners are the same as Lexie's (which is consistently awesome) but the food seems unrelated. The acoustics are awful when it's busy. You need to yell to be heard. The service was great and parking was easy. I recommend the bar area for socializing. read more
