Mmmmmm….Beer

Annual beer tasting for Allagash Victor Ale at the St. Lawrence Arts Center

Wednesday, August, 11

Join Rob Tod and the crew of Allagash Brewing Company on August 11 for a fun night of beer tasting, food, music, and a short film, all to benefit the St. Lawrence Arts Center! Enjoy performances by Sean Mencher and his Rhythm Kings and The Weatherheads as well as an exclusive preview of a short on Allagash, produced by LCM, filmed by Reggie Burrows Hodges.

Victor Ale is part of Allagash Brewing Company’s Tribute Series Ales and the “buck a bottle” campaign to benefit local non-profits.  Allagash contributes $1 from every bottle of Allagash Victor sold to help realize the mission of the St. Lawrence Arts Center.

The Victor Ale was inspired by its feminine-named predecessor, the Victoria Ale. With chardonnay grapes to make the Victoria Ale unique, our brewers decided to use red chancellor grapes for the Victor. Over one hundred pounds of chancellor grapes were crushed on site and added directly to the mash.  With a focus on the subtle wine-like character of the grapes, the 9.0% ABV brew maintains a copper color, wine yeast influence and a medium body with a tart and spicy finish.
