The Sierra Nevada/Allagash Brewing collaboration is a Belgian style pale ale hopped with whole cone Citra and Mosaic hops and fermented with Allagash’s own house yeast. The beer is named Myron’s walk in honor of Myron Avery, the founder of the Appalachian Trail which begins near Sierra Nevada’s new brewery in North Carolina and ends here in Maine.BCAA2014_Allagash-Pale

Look for Myron’s Walk in the limited release Sierra Nevada Beer Camp variety pack and at stops along the Sierra Nevada Beer Camp across America brewfest tour, Tickets for the Portland stop of the tour are still available.
