The Standing Stone Brewery in Ashland is a casual brewpub that serves very good food. Located in the heart of town, the brewery brews several types of beer and I highly recommend getting their sampler, a tasting of seven of their beers. Unlike some brewpubs that offer samplers, the Standing Stone labels their brews so you know which one you're sampling. Food is good and hearty and leans toward the casual side: salads, sandwiches and pizzas, although they serve other, more involved, dishes such as salmon. Bottoms up!

Love Standing Stone! Good beer, diverse menu, food is always great. Lots of local flair to the menu. Last visit I had an uber-creative pizza with artichoke hearts, feta and grapes. Yum! Atmosphere is relaxed but hip. We always stop here when we're in town.
