Just sort of bought a 6 pack of this for the good price and cause i hadn’t tried it before with no big expectation. Wow what a surprise. This is a well balanced beer with a roasted caramel and sweetness but than teased by some hops int he finish for a great light bitterness. Going to have to explore this brewery more.

On tap at some fancy lobster place outside of Bar Harbor on my summer 2007 trip to Maine. Maybe it was all the wonderful food I ate while on this trip, but none of the beer really stuck out in my mind. This was one of the better ones though.
