I wasn't able to find any references to such a bar in Maine, but this
may be of interest:

"My only good memory of customs was when i lived in a place called
Newport, Vermont on Lake Memphremagog and would walk up to a place
called Derby Line, to a bar that was half in Canada, half in Vermont.
They would let me take a bottle of Molson Golden from one side to the
other without a hassle."

"Prohibition was interesting along the Vermont - Canada Border. There
was a bar that was half in Canada and half in the States. Liquor was
legal on the Canadian side. If cops or revenuers showed up, everyone
would move to the Canadian side."

Why just a bar, how about a Golf course,
