Description

Maine was once once a national leader Within the temperance movement to outlaw alcohol. Within the last 30 years, on the other hand, the Pine Tree State has been equally influential Within the craft beer movement. Since 1986, when David and Karen Geary opened New England’s first microbrewery, more than 50 breweries have opened in Maine. The state not only ranks a few of the top 10 for breweries per capita, it also boasts two of the 50 largest craft breweries Within the country. The personalities and visions of the brewers are as diverse as the beers they devise. Some have opened their breweries Within the hulking mill complexes of Lewiston and Biddeford or the previous factories of Portland. Others have brewed at the scenic mountain resorts of Sugarloaf and Sunday River or at the quaint, historic wharves of Belfast and Kennebunk, or even on distant Monhegan Island. Farmstead breweries have sprung up from Skowhegan to Lyman, at the same time as the state’s industrial parks are no less fertile.
