Allagash Grand Cru is deep golden in color, and has a firm yet refined malty palate. Taste and aroma have suggestions of smoke and licorice, with subtle hints of fruit and spice. An excellent beer to enjoy during the cooler seasons.

A solid effort! This brew trys to be alot of things. What they are, i do not know. What it does succeed in, is being very good. Not a suprise. Portland is one of the most under rated party towns on the map.

Feb. 2, 2006; 12 oz. bottle.

A pleasurable assault on the senses. The fairly extraordinary & powerful aroma accurately foretells the fruit, spices & eye-popping heartiness awaiting the taster. Maybe a bit of alcohol burn in there as well? The intense, "chewy" flavor of this brew inhabits your system, props its feet up, and stays awhile. Guaranteed to warm up any Winter evening. A winner.

Bottle. Poured a hazy deep amber with a large creamy off-white head that was lasting. Heavy spicy citrus aroma. Medium body with a smooth texture and soft carbonation. Good complex balanced flavor with an average duration finish. Another good Allagash brew.

Light, spicy aroma, with gentle malts and yeastiness. Pour is mid gold with a mild head. Spicy, relaxed flavor, very well balanced with a refreshing palate. A very nice drink overall.

Pours a somewhat clear deep orange with a white head. Aroma is yeasty and spicy with some citrus in there. Flavor has notes of pear, caramel, yeast, spiciness, clove, a hint of banana, orange peel and lemon. Pleasantly sweet with plently of well-balanced hop bitterness. Pretty bold tasting, very well-made. Medium bodied with a smooth texture and lively carbonation. Very nice stuff.
