Microbrew or Die

Milly’s Tavern has the best microbrew in Manchester NH, mostly because we have a brewery right on site to create the freshest draft imaginable. But this blog isn’t just about why you should drink at Milly’s; it’s about why you should commit to microbrew beer in Manchester NH.

Drinking micro brewed beers at bars in Manchester NH not only improves your mood, it will improve an entire meal. If you sit down at a restaurant in Manchester odds are you won’t find a microbrew like ours—let alone a wonderful selection from a brewery like ours. What makes microbrews so great is their unique taste and twang. You can really tell the difference between a microbrew and something from a massive franchise. You’ll want to have yourself a nice cold microbrew.

Change of pace

Whenever you go out for a drink, you want something new. Nobody wants to go out and do the same old thing every single night. Why should you have the same old beer every day in Manchester NH? Try something new! Try a microbrew in NH.

Taste the difference in a NH microbrew

If a beer is made by a large franchise, you’ll notice the “bottom of the barrel” attention given to each can. Beer wasn’t meant to be an industrial product shipped out and processed without love. As a master brewer in NH, Milly’s can say that microbrews are the way to go.

Local businesses

When you buy a microbrew in NH, you’re casting a vote for the world you want to live in. Supporting new brews in the Granite State will allow local businesses, and brews, to prosper. You’re not only purchasing an amazing beer in Manchester NH, you’re investing in what could be a hot new product for people to enjoy.

If you’re interested in trying some of the best beer in Manchester NH, feel free to come on down to MIlly’s and ask about our microbrews.

Milly’s is one of the best bars in Manchester NH. It also has one of the best restaurants in Manchester NH right under the same roof. When you’re out to eat at some of the bars in the city, you’ll want to know some good combos to have with your food.

Three best foods to have with your beer…

Pizza

Pizza is a go to move when you’re out drinking with your friends. If you’re grabbing lunch in Manchester NH it is a great idea. The only problem is that not all of the best pizza places will serve beer. But it’s okay because most of the places that serve beer will have (satisfactory) pizza. The best part of having beer with pizza is that fact that you’re palette will be numb to the quality of the pie, so it really doesn’t matter anyways.

Wings

If you’re going to bars in Manchester NH, there will almost always be wings on the menu. If there isn’t, you are probably not at one of the bars in Manchester NH. Wings are a great choice when having drinks with friends. The only downside to wings is the mess they create when you’re eating them. This makes them a great option for sit down food at bars in Manchester NH. However, if you’re at a nightclub in Manchester NH, you won’t want to be bringing those sticky fingers onto the dance floor.

Hamburger

It is difficult to tell if the hamburger was the greatest thing to happen to beer or if beer was the greatest thing to happen to the hamburger. Their yin and yang relationship predates most active bars in Manchester NH to begin with. Hamburgers are not just fodder for your stomach when you go out drinking. They are the perfect balance of greasy food to have with a beer. They’re also a very versatile option as well and suitable for any occasion. Any.

A Simple Complex – Headlining the event will be the Manchester native band, A Simple Complex. There is far more to this band than a simple play on words, their sound is self-described as “heavy enough for a mosh pit – rock enough for the radio.”

This band was nominated by the New England Mucis Awards Committee, which is made up of Program directs, DJs, Music Writers, and more. The committee voted them the Best NH Band in 2012. They are bringing their live music to Manchester NH on Saturday April 6^th here at Milly’s Tavern.

The Pretty Corpses – The Pretty Corpses will also be featured later on in the night. They are part of UGLY BASTARD RECORDS and a product of Claremont, New Hampshire. The band features Ian Tolliver on vocals, Jay Tyler on Bass, Ethan Mozeika on drums, and Tommy Snide on drums as well.
