Craft beer in Maine
Maine's craft beer scene quietly became one of the most respected in the country in the 2010s. Allagash Brewing in Portland (1995) brought Belgian-style brewing to the state, while a wave of newer breweries — Bissell Brothers, Maine Beer Company, Foundation, Lone Pine — established Maine as a destination for hazy IPAs and clean, modern styles.

Maine's craft beer story
Allagash White, brewed since 1995, helped popularize Belgian Witbier in America. Maine Beer Company's 'Lunch' helped establish the modern American IPA grammar. The cluster of breweries around Portland and southern Maine has earned comparisons to Vermont and central Massachusetts.
