“My husband and I visited Allagash Brewing Company on Friday, September 4, and had an outstanding experience. We signed up for the Barrel Room Tour, and it was absolutely worth it. The tour was informative, engaging, and gave a great behind-the-scenes look at Allagash's brewing and barrel-aging process. Our guide, Hunter, was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. She was clearly passionate about both the brewery and its craft. The barrel room itself was fascinating to see, and the tasting experience throughout the tour was excellent. Beyond the tour, the entire facility was welcoming, well organized, and staffed by friendly people who were happy to answer questions and share their expertise. Every beer we sampled was high quality, and it was easy to see why Allagash has earned such a strong reputation. If you're visiting Portland and enjoy craft beer, the Barrel Room Tour is a must-do!! Everything from the tour, to the beer, to the hospitality exceeded our expectations. This was our second time and certainly won’t be our last! 🥰 Highly recommended. 🍻”

“Very enjoyable tour, great beer and a really great place to visit. We'd definitely come back. Wish more of your beers were available in Wisconsin, we love Allagash White, would be great to see more”

“Absolutely wonderful. Great staff, great drinks, fabulous vibe. I also love that bite into Maine has a location here. It's truly lovely to sit outside, get some fresh fall air, chat and just enjoy the atmosphere. Thanks!”

“I’m sipping on a delicious draft of Maine Blueberry 🫐 Ale while enjoying a lobster roll from the food truck Bite Out of Maine. The beer here is legendary! The atmosphere is that of a German Biergarten and the shop has some really cool stuff. I wish I could spend the entire day here. Definitely going to stop on the way back to Boston!”
