“Very nice location in the heart of Littleton NH. From what I can tell it is a fully renovated Mill Space right on the water with plenty of areas for dining and enjoying beer. Food and beer both tasty!“

“Old New England mill design, this brewpub has many old school features. The food is German-based, with some outstanding bratwurst and other choices. The beer is excellent and fresh. If you are north of the Notch, this is a must-stop.“

“Beautifull situated along a gorgeous river, this is a good place to hit when heading west to VT, as it's right on the NH-VT border. They have both a full restaurant and a separate tasting room to the left. 7 house beers on tap, with 4 oz. tasters of everything available for $2. Almost all the beers were impressive. Friendly service. This place definitely exceeded our expectations.“

“Pretty big place, former mill on a wide shallow river. Downstairs was full and so were the picnic tables outside so I found a seat at the smaller bar upstairs. Six beers on offer plus six unused taps. No flights, but six ounce pours (called short pours, I hope no British people order these) are possible. Beers were OK, nothing to e-mail home about. Food was OK, more or less German-ish plus pizza. No parking allowed in their parking lot, nearby streets are metered, but I turned right after the bridge and found a non-metered spot straight away. There is also a small lot just past the place that I noticed afterward.“

“After stopping in Littleton for Chutters (world's longest...at some point...candy bar for the kids / wife) we walked around for a bit and stumbled on this place. Their tasting room is about to open, but the brewpub is fantastic. Not sure what the inside is really like but there is a decent outdoor space with some covered tables near the river and then a bunch of tables with umbrellas. Had about a selection of German inspired and then "new world" beers - lots of solid selections and great wood fired pizza. Highly recommend walking the covered bridge nearby, if you want a great picnic take the pizza to go and cross the bridge and eat on the rocks in the middle of the river.“

“Located just behind Main Street on a beautiful view of a onrushjng river. If you drive by Chutters and take the 2nd left you'll find a lot to park. Look like it was built in an old sawmill. I wish I could give a higher score for ambiance. it definitely has a neighborhood vibe and it was surprisingly busy for mid afternoon. Beers ranged from solid to excellent. Didn't have the food though the pizza looked tasty. Highly recommended.“

“Nice little spot right on a beautiful river. Doing a pretty good business on a Thursday evening. There is an outdoor seating area out front as well as plenty of indoor seating. They had about 8 of their own beers on plus four or so guest taps. Prices were pretty cheap - $4.5 for the gose I had. Service was attentive. Did not try the food.

Do walk across the river on the wooden covered pedestrian bridge. Beautiful views and a walking path on the other side. Enjoyable.“

“Great place next to the covered pedestrian bridge right in the middle of town. A bit loud inside but the food was great and the beer was good.“

Beal House Inn (Restaurant)
2 WEST MAIN STREET
“Normally, I would not add a place like this. But given the fact that Littleton has a real dearth of any good beer, I made the executive decision to do so.

Small restaurant that is part of the Beal House Inn itself. We took a couple seats at the bar which is a really beautiful copper topped bar. A number of dining tables near the entry way and then another dining area up a few steps, by the bar. Very much has the feel of a New England tavern.

The beer list here is small. They have only four or five draft offerings, but they’re all from New England and mostly from New Hampshire. Settled on a kolsch from Great North which was nice. They have a small, but well done bottle list as well. Highlights include some of the typical offerings from Allagash a Maine Beer Co offering or two.

Really good service here and the food is excellent. It’s not a cheap place, certainly. And there are definitely more economic options available in town. But it seems to be one of the places that offers a higher quality meal.“

“We stayed in Littleton, NH during our time in the White Mountain region so after dinner at the Beal House Inn (just a bit up the main road in town), we wandered around downtown Littleton and finished off with some beers here before heading back to the hotel.

It’s a really great spot right on the river and just a few steps away from a covered bridge that can take you to the other side. Being from California, covered bridges are really neat to me since we have so few of them. Sat out front in the little "beer garden" area, but plenty of seating inside as well.

They do pizzas, but having just eaten, we did not bother and just tried some beers. A substantial list of beers, but opted for a handful that sounded interesting to us. In general, they were okay beers but all seemed to have at least one thing about them that I didn’t really care for and that kind of ruined the beer for me.

Being one of the only places in town that you can get a "craft" beer and considering the neat location, I’d say you wouldn’t be too bad off stopping here. Just don’t expect anything mindblowing.“

“What a great location and space! In an old wooden mill building on the river next to a covered bridge just off the main st in downtown Littleton. I stopped by early in the afternoon and midweek and the place was hopping, I can only imagine what the weekend looks like here. So two outside seating area’s on on a deck overlooking the river, one out front and a cozy pub like space inside. They 8 beers on tap when I got there and 7 when I left, I was very thirsty ;) They range in quality from good to amazing. 4oz samples, full pours, crowlers, and a few sizes of growlers to go. The food is brick oven, my pizza was really good. I sat at the bar and my server was more than attentive. A little on the pricey side but I’ll gladly pay for the quality. I can’t believe it took me this long to get up there, now I just need to get back.“

“The perfect setting for a rustic brewery. It is is an old mill in a small town along the river. They specialize in Abbey-style ales along with a few traditional European style brews. Wood-fired ovens are used for your pizza and calzone delights to go with the 9-12 beers they have on tap on any given day. Parking is a little tricky and you might be better off parking on Main Street and walking down one of the side roads to the lower level of Mill Street. You;ll see what I mean when you get there and you should get there. Friendly staff. Don’t get there between 3:00 - 4:00 pm unless you only want beer. They re-fire the ovens at that time and are not cooking anything. But I’d recommend a visit.“

“The building this brewery is located in is downright picturesque. Awesome view of the river and covered bridge. They also had a band playing music on the front outside patio area. The inside is mostly all finished with wood and is very clean and presentable. The staff was friendly and accommodating. The food menu is limited, so when you stop in you better want pizza. As far as the beer is was all average with some above average depending on your palate. I already am thinking about going on a hike and returning here after walking some trials. Nice little hidden gem here and I can’t wait to return and try a few more from their beer lineup. “

“You have to love this place. They brew their own European style beers on site, the pizza is delicious and the ambiance is perfect. If you like European-style beers than you will love what they have to offer. I really like that they strayed from the mainstream and brew some off-beat stuff.“

“Nice place next to the river, food and service was good, but what sets them apart for me is the fact that they brew some really good, not hoppy, beer! They brew a lot of Belgian styles and since the norm, and current trend, is to shove hops in until the beer is near to exploding, this was a refreshing (no pun intended) change. Highly recommend this place and love that it is only a 20 minute drive for me!“

“It seems I’m getting a big jaded. So many new breweries, many brewing mediocre beers. Schilling is brewing very good beers, offering a unique food and dining experience and has a Williamsburg Brooklyn feel to it. The staff were friendly, they have wifi and pricing is great. The view of the river is beautiful even in winter and honestly, I’ll be coming back to Littleton in a few months just to pay another visit to this brewery. It’s an awesome spot. 13 beers on tap. which is great for tickers.“

“The bucolic riverside patio is lovely here; inside, the floor tilts dramatically and it’s a bit stuffy. The wait staff is very young and undereducated. Beers are of varying quality - some very poor, others quite good. What they are attempting in spanning the breadth of European styles is probably too tall a task for any brewer. Their German styled varieties were decent, while the Belgian ones weren’t. They thoughtfully offer several guest taps; American hoppy beer outside of their catalog of styles. Homemade wood fired pizzas and extra stuff; excellent post-hike but maybe not otherwise. This is a solid place with some character.“

“Beautiful place right on the river. Floor is wicked slanted. Extremely nice people. Disappointed that there was no straight IPA for the wife but I understand they have a "Continental Europe" concept. Smoked kristallweizen was phenomenal. Wife Belgian pale ale was excellent. Wanted to try the tripel and the pater but I had to drive another 3 hours. Definitely worth the visit. Serious beer geekage.“

“Great German and Belgian-inspired beers enjoyed in a rustic old mill along a river in a mountain town. Doesn’t get any better. Wood-fired pizzas too. Try the Rustic Belgian Brown and Kamarade Baltic Porter. Killer.“
