About
Since 1994, the Casco Bay Brewing Company has distinguished itself by brewing exceptional ales and lagers. This excellence has been recognized at both the World Beer Cup and the Great American Beer Festival, where our beers have won many Gold and Silver medals over the years.

Admin Note: Casco Bay was acquired by Shipyard in 2008 and they continued to brew Casco Bay beers at Shipyard but maintained the Casco Bay branding. Looks like as of at least 2015 the brand has ceased to be brewed at Shipyard.

Bottled at Bishop’s Arms Vasagatan, Stockholm. Clear amber, rocky head. Floral nose with ripe mango and dough. Sweet with candied sugar and cinnamon. Light-medium with clean rounded mouthfeel. A bit yeastty with doughy malt and some house character. Inaggressive and drinkable, despite a vague touch of metal in a mildly bitter finish.

Pours a nice amber red into a shaker. Off-white head with excellent retention leaves spot lacing as it recedes to layer surface. Caramel malt aromas. Smooth caramel upfront which transforms to a slightly sour chalk finish.
