This is a great tour. Dont pay for it, get a coupon for a free tour out of one of the local tourist rags.

It has a great tour of the brewery but if you just want to taste some really good beer they have a great grille and bar. Take an afternoon tour ( by reservation) and finish up with late lunch or super.

Stopped for the tour and since we had an hour to kill decided to have lunch. The dining room is nice and service pleasant. The beers were very good, but the chili was very bland and the salad was fresh, but just greens and a few carrot slivers. The brewery tour was not as good as others we have been... More

Great tour of the brewery, go on a cool day as it's hot upstairs. Nice to eat there and sample a selection of ales.

Always a stop for us when in or near the Portsmouth area. We took friends on the tour this time who have never been. I must say, I was a bit disappointed with the new tour.

Beer at Redhook is very special and the organic food is fantastic. Staff are always pleasant, nice atmosphere that's never too quiet and never rowdy.
