Latest reviews from Hanover

“Up the street from my hotel & I was blown away by the selection considering it’s a full fledged grocery store as well. It has many of the greats dogfish head, founders, ommegang, & ale smith as well as many local beers that I’ve never seen before. It even has 4 taps. No one assisted me but I had no problem taking it all in. Beers seemed reasonably priced & I left rather happy knowing that i’ d have this option for 4 nights!“

“This Co-Op has a pretty standard range of NH/ VT beers. Not much here that you can’t find anywhere else, but I’m guessing this is the best place to get bottles if you’re in Hanover. Prices are pretty average, or perhaps slightly expensive. A nice grocery store otherwise with lots of high-end foodstuffs. Worth a stop-in if you’re driving by.“

“No review of Canoe Club should leave out a mention of Eric the night time bartender. He is a fantastic bartender and understands cocktails, beer and wine. The owner as well is very knowledgeable and takes time to expand the wine and beer lists over time. I like that they are always innovating. When I stop in, a chat with the owner or Eric is always in order to find out what’s coming up and what’s new among their liquor offerings. I’d like to see more bottle conditioned belgian ales and even more beers on tap. There are a dozen now with 5 or so bottled beers that are considered "rare" but there needs to be more. The food is pricey for most people and the Friday and Saturday night crowds are all college kids just looking to get drunk. Avoid the place on the weekends. They also have a very respectable selection of single malt scotch and I sometimes order a Balvenie 21 over a Rogue Dead Guy Ale.“

“This store has a nice selection of local stuff and some decent imports. Beers are very well priced. This is also the only place I’ve seen Farnum Hill Ciders (granted, I didn’t look in many places). Very well-priced Unibroues. The real treat here though is the cheese section which is stocked with loads of NH and Vermont cheeses and a nice selection of imported cheeses as well. Cheese guy knows more about the cheese than anyone does about the beer, but that doesn’t really bother me. It helps that this place is only about 1000 ft from my friend’s place.“

“There are TWO Co-Op Food Stores, one in Lebannon and one in Hanover, but theyr’e only a couple of miles apart and have nearly identical selections as far as we beer geeks are concerned. Wine and cheese selections are really excellent, and they usually carry all of the artisanal Farnum Hill ciders from NH; but I found the beer selections lacking, really not even as good as most Vermont stores, with strong focus on local stuff but little of interest that’s not New England. Worth a stop in the area, but not a special trip, beerwise. Food rating primarily for the cheese selection.“

“A great stop if you’re in the Upper Valley in New Hampshire. This is a grocery store, primarily, and has a great selection of cheeses, fruits and veggies, organic stuff, and pre-made things. Also, a fairly extensive selection of wines. The beer selection is very nice, with a lot of New Hampshire/VT brews in addition to Ommegang, Unibroue, Sam Smiths, and others. Lots of 6-packs chilled, about 8-10 chilled varieties of bomber bottles, and they tend to always have the current Big Beer offering from Smuttynose, which I really enjoy. Staff is helpful, but not terribly knowledgeable. Reasonable prices, especially on random 12-packs of Smutty, Long Trail, Magic Hat, etc. Cases are stored in the back, but you can always find someone to go get one for you. Great place to pick up a picnic lunch or some beer for a hike. Worth a stop if you’re traveling on I-91 through NH/VT.“
