Blue Lobster Brewing Co - Hampton, NH

On our day up the coast from Boston to Portland, ME we made a few brewery stops. First stop was at the Blue Lobster Brewing Co in Hampton, NH. Located in a plaza and kind of hidden in the corner, this was a hidden gem.  Not a huge place, but very clean inside. A nice nautical theme to the decor and the merchandise had a few different things to choose from.
We sat the bar along with a group of others. In no time, we had started discussing our trip and the beer with everyone there including the married couple behind the bar who also happen to own the place.  They were extremely polite. We got a sampler of all the beers, which also...excuse my ignorance here because I am not quite sure about this..but included a beer in which we choose from 3 syrups to add into the beer for an added flavor. We tried one flavor, then dropped all 3 flavors in and it tasted like Trix cereal..not a horrible thing. Among the beers was a stout, a rye, an IPA, a Belgian triple, and a couple others I cannot recall.  I do not remember any of them blowing me away...BUT they were all tasty and at a lot of breweries there is always a few samples I could go without.  These were all good!

Please go support them if you're anywhere in the area! I see they are starting to bottle which is nice.  Check out their Facebook for hours and location..https://www.facebook.com/BlueLobsterBrew
