Among the brewery’s feature beers is Moose Drool. Stark, a writer and forest land owner, will tell a compelling story about how the business community and environmental community can work together to the mutual benefi t of both.

  • Read the Press Release Here (PDF)
    For Immediate Release March 15, 2019 USBTC Announces 25th Annual Winter Competition Winners Acton, MA - The United States Beer Tasting ChampionshipTM (USBTC) recently completed its 25th annual Winter Competition. A total of 376 beers from 123 breweries were examined across 17 different beer categories. Within each category, the USBTC determined both a Grand Champion and the best entry from each of 7 U.S. regions: 1) Northeast, 2) Mid-Atlantic 3) Southeast, 4) Midwest, 5) Rockies/Southwest, 6) California, and 7) Northwest/Pacific. The USBTC takes a unique approach in that its competition is held in multiple stages. Sequential field trials are conducted wherein judges evaluate beers and select the best to advance to subsequent rounds. This allows beers to be judged in relatively small flights while ensuring that the best beers are still determined through head-to-head competition. All beers were tasted in blinded fashion and judged on a hedonic scale. The USBTC recognizes that American brewers are continually establishing new beer styles and reviving interest in classic styles. As one way to acknowledge this, the USBTC devotes “pull-out” categories in each competition to styles that are currently emerging or being faithfully carried on. In our most recent event, Pumpkin Beer and Whiskey Aged Porter/Stout were selected as USBTC pull-out categories. For additional information please visit our web page at www.usbtc.com or search for us on Facebook. The USBTC Winter Grand Champions are: Category Grand Champion Company Location Total Beer Judged

Patterned after the alcohol beverage distribution system in Alberta, Canada, the Board was charged with the responsibility of purchasing, pricing and vending liquor in the state. By the first quarter of 1935, 115 state-owned retail stores were in operation. In 1937, liquor-by-the-drink became legal. In the mid-1960s, emphasis on customer services brought self-service stores to the state. In 1973, the state legislature abolished the Liquor Control Board and transferred its responsibilities to the Department of Revenue, Liquor Control Division. In 1995, the state legislature directed the department to convert all remaining state liquor stores to agent owned liquor stores. All agency liquor stores now own their own liquor inventories that they continue to purchase through the state warehouse, but are permitted to set their own retail prices as long as it is at or above the minimum state established prices. All alcoholic beverage license holders purchase liquor through the agency liquor stores at a cost no greater than the state’s established price.
