The August Press Room (In Exile) Shanty, Forebitter and Foc's'le Ballad Session is this Saturday -- Saturday, August 19, 2017 -- at Liar's Bench Beer Company on Islington Street in Portsmouth, NH.

Since The Press Room has been closed June, July, and August (and who knows for how much longer) for renovations and then opening under new ownership, we're meeting at Liar's Bench Beer Company, which is a former plumbing supply warehouse behind Washburn's at 459 Islington Street, Portmouth. There's a sign at the entrance to the parking lot (!) and there is additional parking on the street on the other side of Islington.

The NEW HOURS for the sing at this venue will be 2:30 to 5:30 -- three hours instead of four hours.

There's a photo of the space on the home page of the brewery -- http://www.liarsbenchbeer.com/ Very industrial. We're at a long table with benches, but it's still a good idea for people to bring a folding chair just in case.

Besides beer, they have hot dogs, bratwurst, and other sausage sandwiches plus snacks like popcorn, Mexican street corn, and chips, but I don't think they serve soft drinks and water is available in a small watercooler on a side wall (which ran out during the June gathering). You might want to bring a bottle of water... I've sampled several of their beers -- the beer is good!

See you Saturday!
