Took the brewery tour. Delicious beer. Nice tour. Low key and fun. Restaurant downstairs to continue the fun. Great value and there's a coupon on the map at your hotel, 2for1.
Saw an ad for this place on a local town map and decided to give it a try. We arrived a little early for the beer tour, so we decided to have some food and wait for the next tour. We had a great little lunch outside on a huge patio. Friendly staff and great atmosphere. The tour was fantastic. We had a 2 for 1 coupon so we did the tour for a total of $5 for two people. The tour guide was funny and had a wealth of knowledge. The beer tastings were fantastic. It was a nice relaxing tour, we were not rushed and no pressure to purchase additional items. Highly recommended.
The tour was informative, and we got to sample 4 different types of beer, some of which were only available at the brewery. I would definitely recommend.
We came here on Friday night to do the tour and get some food afterward. The tour is now $5 per person, be aware of that. $1 tour is no longer. Our tour was pretty quick, some interesting facts were given during it and our guide was personable and funny. He also understood that most of us were here to taste some beer so after there were no more questions, it was "beer time." I appreciated that. We had a tasting of four beers, all of which were good. There was a truly exceptional Dark Rye, from the experimental small brew section next to the tasting area. It's only available on tap on location here in Portsmouth and when it's gone, there is no more.After the tour, we went and had dinner. All of the food was good. The appetizers seemed a bit overpriced for what we received. The entrees were properly sized and very tasty. The service was overall good. It was super busy and our server did her best to keep up with everyone.Overall, a good tour and good food. The beer is what makes it better than average.
Paid 2 visits here - first during the day for the brewery tour which takes 35 - 45 minutes which was very informative and the beer tasting at the end wasn't bad either!!! Second visit was in the evening for food, although there isn't a big selection on the menu, I defy anyone not to find something they could eat. The food came up hot, the beer cold and the service very attentive. Definitely worth a third visit!!!!
We were staying with good friends ( we are from the uk) and they know I love food and especially street food. I was so excited to go ..what a load of rubbish! It cost $ 5 to get in each, not an issue but we had no idea where this money went to. if it was charity fine but it wasn't. it was money for nothing. There were basically a few trucks with queues of so many people about an hour long minimum I guess . The food looked poor and we looked around at everything ( as it took no time as so small) , the french fries looked totally Inedible , the portions looked tiny everywhere , none of us could decide what we would want to eat as nothing looked desirable. We started to queue and after ten minutes moved not a step. We left ..got fresh lobsters from the bridge in York harbour that were delicious and cost about the same for 5 of us to eat from a truck.I think this was a very poor effort, the live band was ok and worked very hard but there was nothing else except a small face painting tent . Appalling .... I LOVE truck food but this was dire . I enjoyed the ambiance as was with good friends so it was an experience but when we left even more people, were being let in for what????? you would be starving . Sort it out as it could be fantastic but this was a rip off .
Had a good friend visiting and was looking for something different to do. Found the Redhook Brewery and Cataqua Public House online and decided to take a ride to check it out. Had a great lunch and then took the tour. Lots of fun and many wonderful brews to try. Would definitely recommend you add this to your list of things to do!
Decided to try this place out on a ride home from visiting friends. The food was good and the beer was better. I was a little disappointed that the beers my husband and I liked the most were not available in a growler, but such is life. I would recommended this place and will be returning.
Probably the best and most informative brewery tour ever! We had an amazing time here. Would recommend it to anyone in the area that loves brew!
Recently I was at Redhook for a wedding reception. No sooner we got off the shuttle we were seized of our beverages whether they were beer, water, soda, etc. they did a lot to help the bride and groom out with the wedding day however they did not seem to be wedding ready. The bartenders were wearing cargo shorts and button up tshirts. Guys you're holding a wedding. The food for the reception was great. I would go back for the salmon in a heart beat.
