What's pouring
Twelve lines, rotated as the kegs blow. We tap something new most Fridays, so the board below is a snapshot — the live truth is always at the bar. Growlers and crowlers to go.
The Ledger — On Now
6 of 12 linesRiver Fog
Hazy IPA · FlagshipCitra and Mosaic over oats and wheat. Soft, juicy, smells like a cut grapefruit. Our flagship and the reason most people walk in.
Cold Snap
Czech Pilsner · Lagered 6 wksFloor-malted Bohemian pils and Saaz, lagered six weeks. Crisp, bready, the one we drink after a shift.
Tidewater
Maine Coast Gose · Sea saltBrewed with sea salt off Pemaquid and a squeeze of lime. Tart, briny, weirdly refreshing.
Black Ice
Baltic Porter · Dark & smoothLagered dark beer, smooth as a frozen pond. Dark chocolate, toffee, a whisper of licorice.
Barrel 9
Bourbon-Aged Stout · LimitedSixteen months in Kentucky bourbon barrels. Vanilla, dark cherry, a long warm finish. Limited pours.
Field Day
Farmhouse Saison · Local grainDry, peppery, brewed with grain from a Knox County farm down the road. Crackly and rustic.
The Ledger — Also On
Lines 7–12Newcastle Common
Helles LagerSoft, golden, and honest. Pilsner malt and a clean noble-hop snap — our everyday session pour.
Roadside
Pale AleA classic West Coast leaning pale, dry-hopped with Centennial. Pine, orange peel, a firm bitter finish.
Damariscotta Dark
Irish Dry Stout · NitroRoasty and bone-dry on nitro. Coffee, dark cocoa, and a creamy head. Pints, not sippers.
June Lupine
Blueberry Wheat · SeasonalMaine wild blueberries folded into a soft wheat ale. Lightly tart, summer in a glass.
Hop Fog II
Double IPABigger, danker sibling to River Fog. Galaxy and Citra piled on. Drinks far too easy for the number.
Cider Off the Road
Dry Maine Cider · Guest ciderPressed from Knox County apples by our neighbors, poured for the non-beer crowd. Crisp and barely sweet.
Lines blow and rotate through the week — the board at the bar is always the real one.

From the farm
Maine hops, Maine grain, Damariscotta water
We source hops and grain from Aroostook and Knox County farms a short drive from the brewhouse.
Field Day's saison grain comes from a farm down the road. Tidewater's salt comes off Pemaquid. June Lupine's blueberries are wild and Maine-picked. The closer the ingredient, the better the beer tastes where it's made — which is the whole idea.
