Snow Republic Brewery - Dover

Really friendly staff, good vibe and good beer food. We went early for dinner since we had 2 kids under 4 with us. Service was fast at that time and the kids had a blast since there's lots of nice outdoor space where they could run around without bothering anybody. Would definitely go back!

I LOVE Snow Republic. To start, you can bring your dog INSIDE the brewery. This was a huge game changer (especially because it was an hour drive from Manchester but well worth it), plus I mean, who doesn't want to drink amazing beer with so many dogs around?! It's also conveniently located by Mt. Snow, so can see it being such a good post ski option. The vibe itself is really welcoming and laid back there are a ton of long tables with benches, board games everywhere, and shuffle board and a pool table. There was a ton of space to settle in, though we did come during the day so didn't see it during peak busyness, but I always love a place with communal seating (and again, dogs). We really enjoyed playing games and just sitting and hanging. All of the beers/food options were up on boards at the front of the brewery and ****, there are so many (incredibly solid) options. There are a ton of IPAs (my personal favorite) as well as ciders, seltzers, wine, and a full bar, so there is honestly something for everyone even if they're not beer drinkers. We opted for beers/seltzers (in cans, not on draft), getting the Valley Boi grapefruit and raspberry seltzers, Joy Ride IPA, Yard Sale IPA, and Hop Avalanche IPA (their flagship IPA). Everything was great I actually picked up seltzers, the Yard Sale, and Hop Avalanche to go beers to bring home because I enjoyed them so much. Beers ran about $7 $9/glass so definitely priced nicely for the quality! The food was also AWESOME, so much so especially when paired with great drinks that we came back a second time. I got the black bean burger both times with fries (Old Bay) that came with this amazing sauce that paired perfectly with the light spice from the Old Bay. The burger was AMAZING no frozen patty bullshit that gets reheated, it was clearly homemade and fucking MASSIVE. The OG Chicken Sandwich was also a big hit (and also enormous), and my dog very much enjoyed his hot dog (no bun). Really, really solid food options. My only complaint is with myself for not ordering a pizza because they looked AMAZING and are only available on specific days (Friday Sunday). All of the people who worked there were so friendly and I heard a lot of people who weren't settled on a particular beer ask for help and the team went above and beyond in helping them find something that worked for their preferred type of beer. We were also told about the live music/upcoming events and invited to come back and attend, so it felt SUPER welcoming. All in all, this is a place I'll definitely continue to come back to whenever I'm in Vermont and will recommend it HIGHLY to anyone heading to Mt. Snow or wanting to make a well worth it drive from Stratton or Manchester. Quality place with really good energy and vibes. A total win!

I'm not a big beer drinker so I can't really rate on that but I did get the blood orange sour and thought it was pretty good. Pretty cool atmosphere though. The place was nice and big. They have a pool table, shuffle board, connect four, and other games for entertainment. I ordered the maple Buffalo wings. I enjoyed the flavor of the sauce. They were double fried which I do like the outside crispy but the inside was a bit dry/overdone. I tried some of the pizza which was pretty good definitely nice to snack on with the drinks.

Solid food and atmosphere. Couple regular staff members could be a little friendly, but I guess it makes catching them on a good day a little special. Pizza is thin-crust 'New Haven style, ' and while it 's excellent for what it is, they miss the mark on actually competing with legitimate apizza from the Mecca. For beers, their IPA game is strong. Stout game is hit or miss.

Snow Republic keeps getting better and better as the season rolls on. The pizzas are killer and the beers are on point. My wife loves their cider. Constantly good vibes and excellent music. Kudos for the owner for always being on hand and being such a chill presence in town. I wish these guys nothing but the best.
