Featured Brewery: Sea Dog Brewery

The original Sea Dog Brewing Company was founded by Pete Camplin, Sr. on May 17, 1993 in the historic shipbuilding town of Camden, Maine. His 240 seat brewpub and kegging brewery overlooked the dramatic waterfall of the old Knox Woolen Mill. In March of 1995, a second facility opened, a 540 seat restaurant and brewery on the banks of the Penobscot River in downtown Bangor.

In 2002, master brewer Alan Pugsley and entrepreneur Fred Forsley purchased Sea Dog. Their crew continues the tradition of serving great food, and brewing a full line of handcrafted ales that capture the spirit of Maine’s sea-faring history. Today, Sea Dog Brewing Company operates brewpubs in three locations – in Topsham, Bangor and South Portland, all serving a full menu of handcrafted ales and creative pub fare with a flair.

The folks at Sea Dog take pride in being authentic. Their beers are brewed in a traditional style using only the highest quality ingredients. Their English brewing style results in brews with a distinctive, refreshing taste and crisp finish unique to top-fermented beers.

Fashioned after the famous ales from Burton-On-Trent which took on such bold character after surviving the long, rolling voyage from London to Calcutta, India in the days of the Empire, Sea Dog’s India Pale Ale is a full-bodied amber-colored masterpiece.

Hazelnut Porter is one of a kind! Four different malted barleys combine for a distinct, full-bodied beer with roasted nuttiness, uniquely enhanced by a hint of hazelnuts. Smooth and creamy with Willamette hops, this porter is a beer style in itself.

Featured Beer from Sea Dog Brewery:
Hazelnut Porter and India Pale Ale

PORTER - Sea Dog’s Hazelnut Porter – England’s first national beer, Porter was named for the street-market porters who drank it for its nourishment. Dark and robust, top-fermented porters are excellent with fresh raw oysters, shellfish, and Porterhouse steak. This one, boasting a hint of hazelnut, is a ringer for chocolaty, creamy fruit desserts!

INDIA PALE ALE – Sea Dog’s IPA – This top fermented ale is a rowdy member of the family of the “beers of antiquity” with a bitter hop finish. Bold and highly hopped, serve with hearty dishes, red or white meats, and your favorite sharp salad dressing.
