Enjoying a local brew at the Fly Fishing Film Tour |
The film tour was being shown in many spots in the United States. We went to a viewing in Brunswick, Maine at the Frontier Cafe, Cinema & Gallery . The cinema included rows of tables where you could order food and drinks from the attached cafe and enjoy them during the show. It was a great experience.
Lion's Pride Pub |
Prior to our film-tour-adventure, we went to a hidden gem of a pub called "The Lion's Pride Pub and Restaurant". It is located on Rt. 1 in Brunswick, Maine. The Lion's Pride is the sister pub to "Ebenezer's", in Lovell, Maine, which has been awarded "Best Beer Bar in the World" for 5 years in a row by Beer Advocate.
The Lion's Pride specializes in Belgium style beers (although it carries others as well). Don't expect to see Budweiser, or even Sam Adams on the menu. In fact, if you are an average Joe like me, don't expect to recognize ANY of the beers on the menu. That said, their beer menu comes with descriptions, and it's an adventure in itself to sample unique and rare brew from around the globe. It should be noted that beers are pricier then your average bar - with one drink averaging around $7-$10. Even if you are not knowledgeable about beer, you'll still enjoy this unique experience.
