Kyle Bognatz
Great service and amazing beer
Jack Alberico
Great atmosphere, awesome place to see some live music or just to grab a beer. A someone who loves lighter beers, the northern lager was incredible.
Chris H
Great brewery. Very comfortable and laid back.
Sherry Ritchie
Saw a great concert, The Wolf Sisters!

Very limited indoor seating especially on a Saturday night. I wasn't a fan of the beer options here, I had the farmhouse ale and it wasn't good. I also prefer a 16oz to the 12oz pours they offer here. It does attract a lot of people and the ambient is nice so that contributed to the rating.

We had our welcome party here the day before our wedding and it was wonderful! Rebecca was so easy to work with and made the whole process a breeze. Everyone had such a great time and the staff did an awesome job serving over 100 guests.

Ben is one of the top 5 beer tenders I’ve had in my drinking career. Farmhouse realness through and through.

My husband Erik and I were married at Oxbow Beer Garden in Oxford and are nothing but impressed with the food/beverage, event execution and warm hospitality that was provided. We highly recommend hosting an event with Oxbow and/or visiting the beer garden for delicious pizza/beverages provided by their awesome staff!

My husband and I had our rehearsal dinner at the Oxbow Beer Garden in Oxford and we couldn't recommend this venue more for either a rehearsal dinner or a wedding! Rebecca and her entire team were SO helpful every step of the way and made every single moment of the night so special. Our event was an absolute dream! Between the florals the venue supplied and the incredible food that was served every single guest, including ourselves, were totally blown away. Our event was back in June and we still have family who tell us how spectacular our rehearsal dinner was!Also, and very importantly, the beer + drinks were so incredible! Overall, this is a 10/10 location to have a wedding or rehearsal dinner - the team at Oxbow will go above and beyond to make your dreams come true!!
Rebecca and her team at Oxbow Portland made our Indian-fusion welcome party feel effortless, memorable, and unique. Oxbow Blending and Bottling was a great venue to host our 200+ guests with its flexible indoor-outdoor space providing a little bit of everything: enough space to mingle, eat, DANCE, and have a henna artist station. Oxbow provided our out-of-state guests that memorable Maine experience through the huge selection of Maine beverages. Rebecca and her team did an amazing job making that large event feel effortless. She coordinated with a new caterer that made cooking fresh Indian food on site possible. The space was set up wonderfully and made the evening flow seamlessly. It allowed us to just enjoy the moment of bringing our families together. Thank you all! A+M

Great place to meet a group of friends and enjoy some local brews.

After spending a morning hauling my camera gear around for photo tourism, I switched over to beer tourism and stopped by this place by recommendation. It did not disappoint. These are master crafters of farmhouse/saison brews and I would recommend anyone try the Farmhouse Pale and the Sasuga. Staff was very courteous and attentive as well as knowledgeable about the local brewery scene.

Definitely put this place on your list if your visiting town and hopping around breweries. The overall vibe here is one of the better ones. Super chill and the staff was extremely hospitable. Their beers were a bit hit or miss, but the selection is big and the beers that were good were really good and you wont find beer this affordable in Chicago. I love sours and half the beers are fermented beers, many of which I think are quite approachable for even people who are not into sours. We sat at the bar in the main taproom and had a great time. Outdoor space is great as well. I saw someone gave a bad review because the place was closed for an event. *eye roll* We checked their social before going and they post ahead when they're closed. Also, I can see why they'd be popular for events. Their space is perfect for private events. We also had some snacks from the little Duck Fat satellite they had on site. Good selection of specials. We had fries and chowder and they were very good. I highly recommend this place.

Large taproom that was packed on a warm Saturday evening. Long tables all around for groups and the like, as well as several bartenders working the place.Decided to try the "Maine Grown" ($6 for 12oz). Ok sweet ale mixed in with some hops. Not as balanced as I would've hoped - okay to sip on for a bit. Some of their other notable beers lean toward saisons or lagers. For food, there are a couple places nearby selling some finger food that can be pricey. Popular spot and plenty of activity on the weekend. Good for those who don't only want beer at a brewery.
