Beer Description

With a focus on the subtle, wine-like character of the grapes, the 9.0% ABV brew boasts a pale copper color, Belgian yeast influence.

Victoria Ale was inspired by a visit to Victoria Mansion, in Portland, Maine and the visual references to Bacchus, the god of wine. The brewer’s decided to fuse the worlds of beer and wine. Over two hundred pounds of Chardonnay (Vidal Blanc in 2010) grapes were brought in, crushed on site and added directly to the mash. Victoria Ale’s aroma is fruity spice, and the taste presents subtle notes of green banana, black pepper, and fresh-crushed mint. and a medium body with a long candied fruit finish with hints of honeydew melon, and, of course, white wine grapes.

*Money generated by the brewing of Victoria will go to the National Historic Landmark, Victoria Mansion here in Portland, Maine.
