I have to disagree with the other posters' negative comments about the Augusta Brewing Co. We arrived a few minutes before they opened at 11:00, and the bartender brought out glasses of water and said we would have to wait a few minutes to order beer and food. The manager then came out and while getting set up for the day, she sat and chatted for awhile. She told us about a few points of interest in town and explained the beers on the menu. We ordered the large meat and cheese platter, along with a sampler of their beer, and everything was very good. If you are planning to pay small-town bar prices for their microbrews, you should move on down the trail, but it was defenitely a good stop and a comfortable way to pass a few hours on their deck overlooking the trail.
