Brewpub Review: 7 Barrel Brewery in Lebanon, NH

So this last weekend I flew to VT to spend a few days with my husband (yay for my husband!) and get some of our stuff unpacked.   Yeah, we won't go there, LOL. 

Anyhow, on Sunday we drove to NH to do some shopping & hit Macy's and complete some of our wedding registry items.   There is no sales tax in NH, so we figured we'd save some money and get our wine glasses.  I'll be posting later on why Macy's can suck it.  

And now, for the beer. 

We stopped at the 7 Barrel Brewery on our way home.  David had been there previously and said that I had to try their Maple Ale.  I was not disappointed!  

We each ordered a sampler - of which the lineup was: 

Queechee Cream Ale
Ice Rock Canadian
New Dublin Brown
The Red 7
Champion Reserve IPA
RIP Stout

Plus the Maple Ale, and another seasonal IPA.  David enjoyed the IPA's - he said they weren't too hoppy.  We decided to bring a growler home. 

For dinner I had the Pub Cheese Plate - smoked gruyere & cheddar, apple chutney, and quite possibly some of the best bread I've ever had - tasted like it just came out of the oven, and it was 9 pm! 

No pictures, as we left the camera at home.
