Howdy Friends, We will happily fill some or all of your June beer share tomorrow. Just as a reminder, growler fills/pickups will occur every Wednesday evening from 6-8 and Saturday morning from 10-12. We will also offer a downtown pickup two Saturdays each month after 1:00. For those who have not been to the brewery, we are located at 18 Hunt Road in Belfast (red 2-story building with a garage door). There is limited space in the driveway, so feel free to park on the road.
Pre-Fill Orders: Send us your requests by 4:00 for pickup in the cooler outside anytime after 5:00. Please remember to mark your name off on the chalkboard.
Drop-in: Feel free to stop in from 6:00-8:00 to have your growlers filled and chat with the brew crew.
June 25th Beer Options:
Chompski Belgian Golden Ale 8.0%
OMT IPA 7.2%
Black is Beautiful Stout 7.3%
Postcards from Helles 5.5%
Beer Descriptions:
Chompski: is a recipe inspired by the great Belgian IPA, Houblon Chouffe. A Belgian Golden Strong Ale by style, this pale, complex,
effervescent ale is highly attenuated and offers hoppy and fruity notes of lemon and grapefruit. 100% of the grain used in this beer comes from Maine farmers.
OMT (Old Man Time): This is our flagship beer and one of our first recipes. A stronger version of the American Pale Ale, this style is bitter and hoppy, showcasing American hop varieties that balance nicely with pale and crystal malts. Our creative hop profile offers the bitterness and flavor of a West Coast IPA with the aroma of an East Coast IPA…We call it a Midcoast IPA. 95% of the grains used in this beer come from Maine farmers.
New Beer Alert: In recognition and celebration of Juneteenth, we are happy to offer Black is Beautiful. An American Stout by style, this rich and flavorful stout offers roasted, chocolate notes. Please join us in reflecting on this part of U.S. History and consider ways to advance diversity, equity and inclusion. 70% of the grain used in this beer comes from Maine farmers.
Postcards from Helles: Is a clean, malty, gold-colored German lager with a smooth grainy-sweet flavor and soft, dry finish. Created in Munich in 1894 to compete with the Pilsner-type beers. Named after The Wood Brothers song by similar title. 98% of the grain used in this beer comes from Maine Farmers.
Wednesday bike rides are back!!! In collaboration with the Belfast chapter of the New England Mountain Bike Association (NEMBA), join us for an “old school” mountain bike ride (8 miles) that starts and ends at the brewery and rolls over blueberry hills and snowmobile trails on the upper west side of Belfast. All riders are welcome. If you are feeling like biking isn’t your thing, join a crew on a run to the top of the blueberry hill (2.9 miles round trip). Ride/run departs the brewery at 5:30. Bring something for the grill for the post-ride/run “grill and chill”.
Cheers!
