The location has been given a refresh to encompass the new identity, but has not undergone any major renovations. The space has a casual backyard lifestyle feel, has a nod to camping, and encompass the Maine outdoor lifestyle. Fraser is also working with his business partners Marcus Alcantara and Nace Cohen from Paper Tiger to bring Camp Pennant to life. Camp Pennant has been given a new unique feel, and feature a wood- fired oven to make you feel like you’re sitting around the campfire. They have seafood and Neapolitan pizza offerings, all which will be cooked in the new oven, which has been installed. They have also refreshed the beverage offerings under the Pennant label. You will be able to find drinks under the name Pennant Brewing and Distilling. They will shift from wheat based vodka to a gluten free corn based vodka. In addition to vodka, their beverage line will consist of bourbon, gin, scotch, rum as well as light and dark lagers. Down the road, they hope to expand into creating seltzers, and ready to drink cocktails.
