ALLAGASH 30th ANNIV
August 6, 2025
Wednesday evening Aug 6 at Hopleaf, we honor and celebrate the 30th anniversary of Portland, Maine’s Allagash Brewery. Founder, Rob Tod will be on hand and we will have 15 Allagash specialty beers on tap! We don’t do tap takeovers often any more but Allagash is a world class brewery that Hopleaf has supported for decades.
Rob Tod is one of the most passionate people in our industry, a great ambassador for craft beer and an all around good guy. We’ll be featuring an expanded selection of Allagash beers all month or until they’re gone, but Rob will be on hand one night only! Stop by from 6 to 8 tonight and sample from the selection of great Allagash beers and say hello to Rob.
