Yeah, Maine tourism is gone for the summer, but hopefully they can get back to business and welcome some out of state-rs for foliage season.

You ever end up making the trip Stevie I'll point you in the direction for the best Losbta roll in the Old Port. Join you for a beer as well!

I would like that Pat

Just saw video of Sunday brewing company . They yanked his liquor license and health. He said he’s staying open and will pay daily fine. Guy has lost 675k in revenue. For anyone that has skin in the game they get it must be nice to have your governor pick the winners and the losers. The plea for insanity is real

I support him, but he will get fined to death and likely shut down.

had a couple Sip o' Sunshine IPAs on Tuesday from Lawsons...just came into PA last month. about an hour south of Hill Farmstead

I had to look it up. Took my wife to Ben & Jerry's in or near Waterbury when we were in VT last June. Ice cream was pretty good, it was on her wish list. Since I was involved, we also stopped at breweries and distilleries and cheese retailers

Anyhow, on our drive back to the resort I decided to take the scenic route and drove down RT 100 South. Great ride BTW. Anyhow we stopped at some brewery we bumped into, happened to be Lawson's, I loved everything about the place. Would definitely go back

Armed rebellion isn't looking like such a bad idea. The curve was flattened but the restrictions haven't, especially in places where they should be lifted. Government is putting hard working people out of business, many people who put their whole life's savings into a business. Liquor Stores and Marijuana dispensaries are deemed essential. Revolution.

Well it appears the state came in and took his license off the wall and forced him to close last night after all. The good news is that they immediately started a Go Fund Me site to get Maine residents back to work, he's filing a class action suit for all Maine small business owners and workers. They started out with a goal of raising 10K and as of a few minutes ago they had 1,920 donations pouring in from all over the Country and they've raised just over 79K for their cause. I'm sure a lot of other States with draconian Governors will keep a close eye on this one.

Wisconsin and Michigan will refuse to enforce their Governors idiotic edicts.

to physically shut him down. Then all hell will break loose.

It is about as nice as it gets in the summer

Maine is my favorite state.

Doesn't hurt that they have the sweetest cold water lobster i south of Canada. Boiled, dipped in drawn butter. Cold beer. Steamers before. Heaven.
