Flight Deck Brewing

Flight Deck Brewing occupies a former Marine shooting gallery at the old Brunswick Air Base, keeping the military history alive in a sprawling, dog-friendly space. They pour a solid rotating tap list, from pale ales to sours, and partner with an on-site wood oven pizza joint. You'll find locals, families, and aviation buffs mixing easily on the grounds, which feel more like a casual compound than a typical brewery.

• Rotating tap list covers pale ales to sours with real depth
• Wood-fired pizza and salads with filling portions
• Heated outdoor seating and huts year-round
• Dog-friendly grounds; family-oriented without feeling forced

Start with Wings, their house pale, or ask what sour is on draft. P-3 is another standout. The Flying Dirty pizza is worth the hype. Salads are also solid if you want something lighter. Six-ounce samples run six bucks if you want to taste wide.

Casual, sprawling compound feel with room to spread out. Indoor space is relaxed; outdoor areas are quieter when heated huts are full. Not loud, but lively on weekends.

The beer lineup changes regularly and covers real range, from a house pale called Wings to experimental sours. Portion sizes are generous, and the pizza holds its own. Staff knows what they're doing and treats regulars and first-timers the same. There's also a "buy a Vet a beer" program, which fits the place's character. Dogs are welcome on leash everywhere as long as they're well-behaved.

Guests consistently praise the beer variety, generous pizza portions, and thoughtful layout. One recent visitor noted the spot handles "the whole thing right across the board." The military history and dog-friendly policy draw a lot of repeat traffic, especially from families and couples looking for a low-key afternoon.
