Federal Jack's is the birthplace of Shipyard Brewing. It is located on the second floor of the original brewery (which is still operational) overlooking Kennebunkport. They have a large rectangular bar and it is usually very lively after work and on the weekends. There are pool tables in the back. Most of the Shipyard beers are on tap as well as special ones that are usually hard to find on tap or in bottles at other places. They always have cask conditioned ales on tap. I have never been disappointed with the food or the service. It is always a must visit on our yearly pilgrimage to Maine from North Carolina. Stop by the gift shop on the first floor for a growler to go, great T shirts, and quality Maine gifts and clothing. We usually are there the week after Thanksgiving when the Christmas festival is kicking off and the place is packed. Where else can you catch Santa come in on a lobster boat!

Had a blast at this place. Missed seeing George H. Bush by about 30 minutes. He was there having a little food and beer with Barbara. The place sitting on the water was awesome this was a picturesque place that is in most books. The harbor with the president house behind it was just so awesome. The beer was very good and the food was to die for. Lobster anywhere in Maine is awesome. The president house is about a 5 minute walk from the brewery. Coincidence I think not.
