Dan Traina Salty’s Pub in Tilton, is a perfect extension of what makes Big Thorn Brewery special. From the start, the owners have made their own lane—creating thoughtful, creative beers without chasing trends, and building spaces that feel intentional and grounded.
Big Thorn’s off-grid brewery, set on acres of forest with greenhouse seating, wood stoves, and a tree bar, is one of the most unique brewery experiences around. Salty’s brings that same spirit into an accessible brick-and-mortar location without losing the soul. The beer remains creative, the food is well done, and the atmosphere reflects the care behind everything they do.
Above all, it’s owned by genuinely good people, and that shows. Salty’s isn’t just a pub—it’s a continuation of a vision built on creativity, community, and doing things right.
