Sat at the bar. Two taps, both seasonal New England beers, plus about 40 or so bottles, only about 8 of them being a standard light lager. They have a nice mix of expected British ales like Bass, Harp, and Guinness along a couple Samuel Smith offerings. The American selection is a respectable selection of VT and NH beers from Long Trail, Magic Hat, and Smuttynose. Also some Red Hook since they have a facility in Portsmouth, NH and Shipyard from Maine, and offerings from Unibroue, which is a somewhat local brewer. Bartender was nice and talkative. Housed in the EF Lane Hotel on Main Street in Keene, NH. The ambiance is nice with exposed brick and lots of turn of the century touches as part of the hotel which this restaurant is part of. You can’t help but consider some of the ambiance from the hotel and town of Keene while sitting here. Keene is a classic and picturesque town with a wide main street flanked by century old brick buildings, a center park and a large white church with towering steeple at the center of it all.
