Every year for the past 10 years we stop at Jess's and pick up 4 freshly cooked 1 lb. lobsters. We then stop at either the Rockland Harbor Park (near Primos) or Owl's Head State Park to eat a lobster picnic lunch. This is what coastal Maine is all about. If we lived in the area we would be eating a whole lot of fresh fish from Jess's.

On a cold November day we went to Rockland while staying in Maine. We decided to drop by Liberator Brewing and give it a try. We've been to quite a few breweries and this is one of the good ones. It was quiet and a bit out of the center of town, but well worth the stop. Their beers were excellent and the service was great...it was the owner. He was very friendly and sat and talked with us during our visit. It was a great stop. We would definitely visit again if/when we are back in the area. Give it a try, we think you will like it also.
