I'm glad Barreled Souls is just a few miles away from me -- it's one of the best Maine craft breweries and tasting rooms around and always has several beers on tap, and my visiting craft beer-aficionado family and friends love it. This time we had the Summer Jam and Space Goose sours, and both were excellent. It was too chilly to take advantage of the outdoor sitting area with its Adirondack chairs, but the interior is very cozy and has a great ambiance.

Cinemagic is a stone's long throw from my place, and I finally went to see a film there (I blame Netflix and Amazon Prime). There's nothing like seeing a film, especially one with great cinematography, in a real theater, though, and the IMAX theater at Cinemagic is fantastic. It's a big theater with a huge screen, very comfortable recliner seats that feel more like lounge chairs, and lots of space between aisles so you don't have to worry about the person in front of you reclining into your lap. Reasonable prices for tickets, especially if you buy them in person instead of online. The popcorn prices are ridiculous, however -- a small popcorn is almost the price of the theater ticket. It's only POPCORN. Other than that, the IMAX theater can't be beat. AND, there's an adjoining Otto Pizza restaurant and bar.
