Description
When we started this company, our goal was to keep it as straightforward as possible: to craft flavors and experiences that the people of Maine hadn’t had before, and serve them as fresh as possible. Over the years, as the business has grown, we are now able to share our beers with people in other areas – regionally, nationally, and internationally – but Maine always comes first. We strive to take care of those things closest to us, and let that radiate outward: our staff, our processes for making beer, our tap rooms and loyal customers, and the surrounding communities that support us. Everything we do is in support of these things, we are nothing without them.

50cl bottle pours a leggy, opaque black with some brick red head. Nose is really nice, amped up everything but it all works in concert. Like Megadeath. Cocoa, malt, brown sugar, whiskey, cake, lightly earthy. Flavors of malted chocolate balls, licorice, brownie batter, smooth whiskey. Lots of wood sugars too. Full bodied, sticky, boozy but well balanced. About a year old too and it's held up.

16oz can from Tavour. Didn't care for it - a style that is just not my fav. Probably much better from a keg/nitro vs. nitro can

16oz can from Tavour. Murky amber pour, fine silky head that lasts a while. Aroma is malty, honey. Taste is sweet, malty, honey. A bit sweet for the style, but the malty base is spot on.
