Allagash Brewing Co. has announced that they plan to open a new offsite tasting room in 2024 at The Downs in Scarborough, Maine.
Located within The Downs, Southern Maine’s new mixed-use, live-work-play community currently under development, Allagash Brewing Company has purchased 7-plus acres of land to develop and build a new custom-designed tasting room slated to open in 2024.
The new Scarborough location will be a 15-minute drive from the original Portland brewery and Allagash will not be moving any of their brewing or packaging operations away from the brewery in Portland. The expanded tasting room will comfortably accommodate more people and enable Allagash to dedicate more of their current space on Industrial Way to brewing beer.
“We are very proud to welcome Allagash to Scarborough,” said Managing Partner Peter Michaud. “Allagash’s presence will solidify The Downs as one of the best in Maine to live, work, and play,” Michaud added.
In a statement from Allagash Brewing Co.’s Founder, Rob Tod:
“Portland has been and will always be our home. It’s where we brew all of the beer that made us what we are today, where we employ a team of over 140 people, and that’s not changing. Our core goal at Allagash has been to give people new experiences and create community through beer, and this future space in Scarborough will achieve that and so much more…
Our expanded presence at The Downs is a continuation of our measured and sustainable growth, and directly in line with our B Corp values dedicated to serving our community and our employees. This is a great opportunity to continue to evolve with new ideas and initiatives in a way that is uniquely us.”
Allagash Brewing Co.’s Industrial Way location in Portland will remain open. They are currently open Monday and Thursday 11 AM – 6 PM; Friday and Saturday 11 AM – 7 PM; Sunday 11 AM – 5 PM.
