Head to Oxbow Blending & Bottling on Thursday evening for Battle of the Brewery Bands, where you can cheer for local brewers-turned-musicians as they play and sing their hearts out. Are you a Curieux drinker or more about the Machine Czech Pilz? Allagash and Bunker are among the eight breweries you can cheer on.

It wasn’t a good winter for winter sports, but before the season passes us by for good, try one that doesn’t always require the weather to cooperate. It’s the last week of the season at the Thompson’s Point Rink, where local breweries are battling again on Saturday in a pond hockey invitational. For ice time, you’ll have to get tickets for Thursday, Friday or Sunday, or try another manmade spot in our skating guide.
