Join us for adventures on the Maine Beer Trail, starting with patio brews at Battery Steele Brewing and Rising Tide Brewing Company in sunny Portland. Next we head to One Industrial Way, a hub of brewing innovation, where we meet Joel Mahaffey, founder and owner of Foundation Brewing Company. We share an Epiphany, Foundation’s flagship Maine IPA, as Joel explains how sustainable brewing not only helps the planet, but saves money and time, ensuring a sustainable business for years to come.
Joel introduces us to Sean Sullivan who heads up the Maine Brewers’ Guild, a non-profit boasting a membership of 99.9% of Maine’s breweries. Sean describes how “a rising tide lifts all boats mentality” bolsters the brewing community in Maine, evidenced by their high ranking in number of per capita breweries, found everywhere from small town Main Street, to a barn in blueberry country, to the end of a mountain trail.
Sean takes us north to New Gloucester, where we meet Russell Voss of NU Brewery. Their no-plastic approach is born out of a love for their natural surroundings, a desire to preserve the pristine waters that make Maine beer so spectacular, and good business sense.
Russell pours us NU Brewery’s finest and we close with a toast to brewing local. “Drink beer. Save environment.”
