The reason I ask, is that Allagash is releasing a small, special batch beer that I am really, really hankering to get my hands on. I love Allagash, so much that if you told me I could only drink one beer brand for the rest of my life, this would be it.

The new brew they are releasing is:

Gargamel

Gargamel, a Belgian Style sour ale, is the first offering in our limited release 375 ml series. Our brewers used a blend of American 2-row barley Malt, Raw and Malted wheat and selected caramel malt to brew this beer. After primary fermentation the beer was inoculated with our house Brettanomyces aged in French Oak wine barrels with a generous amount of local raspberries for over 18 months. Gargamel's aroma is full of un-ripened raspberry, vanilla and citrus notes. This medium bodied beer has hints of biscuit and graham cracker with a clean, fruity and refreshingly tart finish.

Gargamel will be available only in our retail store starting on Thursday, May 7, limit two per person for $10.00 a bottle. Gargamel is the first in the hand-filled, 375 ml series that Allagash will release throughout the year. More exciting barrel-aged beer to come!


If anyone thinks they may have an opportunity to snag a few bottles of this for me when the release happens, I would obviously reimburse them for not only the price of the beer and shipping, but I'll make sure I make it worth your while with a package of great sticks. :love:
