Pour(t)land , ME



If beer is more than just a beverage, the Allagash 2006 Grand Cru was more than just a beer to me. Brewed the year my wife and I met, and shared by us on the back porch on our one year wedding anniversary. We visited the brewery (among several others) on our honeymoon but really felt a special connection to the people at the brewery. The love that they put into the beer they make is evident in every bottle. I could prattle on about big plum, dark cherry, and raisin flavors or mention the color was a deep amber but those things were pretty far from my mind as the two of us sat in the cool summer night, remembering the moments good and bad. The good (beer)life.
