The Seacoast's Jumbo circus Peanuts will be there!

This year I missed all the good fairs, Rochester, Deerfield, Freyburg. To make up for this failure to catch one of the best fall pass times there is, I’ve decided I'm going to try the York Harvestfest. What I didn’t realize beforer I told my friend I would go with her is that this is a weekend-long affair, complete with little sub-fests throughout the community. While I will not be attending all (such as senior fest or kids fest) I am thinking about heading over to the Lobster in the Rough on Route 1 this Friday night for the Brew Fest.

Sponsored in part by Redhook Brewery, the beer festival offers plenty of seafood, beer and even a performance from the Jumbo Circus Peanuts. Admission is $25, which includes five 8 oz. samples of Redhook beer, a Harvestfest collectors glass and a $5 food coupon to use at the restaurant.

For those of you who haven’t been to the Lobster in the Rough, it’s not your typical seafood joint. It’s outdoors with the picnic tables and the fried food served in plastic baskets, but the establishment also has an outdoor bar and horseshoe pits, or at least it did the last time I was there...

The Festivities start at 5 p.m. and go to 10 p.m. and those who attend must be over 21. For more information, call 207-363-4422.
