First brewed in 1993 as a summer seasonal, Harpoon IPA was so well loved that the Boston-based brewery began making it year-round. And it’s no wonder. This cop- per-colored beer is a harmonious combination of hops, malt and yeast. No single ingredient dominates. The sturdy malt backbone provides depth of body and color, which is balanced by a pleasantly hoppy finish. Prince, a fan of IPAs, is drawn to Harpoon IPA because it’s so easy-drinking. “This beer works well for almost any beer-drinking occasion. Whether I enjoy one with dinner, at a summer BBQ or out at a bar with friends, Harpoon IPA fits the bill. It’s especially good with Mexican food. The bitterness and floral/citrus characteristics really bal- ance the spiciness.” IPAs are so popular and abundant that many stellar pi- oneers get overlooked. Prince thinks that’s a shame. “Nowadays people get caught up with the ‘newest thing’ and forget about the originals that started the whole craft movement,” she says. “I respect Harpoon because they have produced great beers for 30 years. And I am real- ly enjoying their newest summer seasonal, Camp Wan- namango.” Harpoon IPA is such an iconic New England brew that it was reporter Michael Rezendes’ beer of choice in the Academy award-winning film, Spotlight, which is set in Boston. Rezendes, played by actor Mark Ruffalo, relaxes with a bottle of Harpoon’s flagship IPA. Why? The direc- tor wanted to portray authentic Boston. Just as “Lager” in Philadelphia means Yuengling, "IPA" in Boston is Har- poon. BEER BARS ON SOUTH STREET The bohemian vibe of philly's most eclectic street was nearly lost to highway construction. beer-loving entrepreneurs saved the day and the vibe lives on. By Danya Henninger 8 www.origlio.com he eastern end of South Street is one of the most vibrant and diverse neighborhoods in Philadelphia, and it’s been that way for more than half a century. But the area’s Bohemian Tcharm was almost lost to history. In the 1950s, long-established businesses were pushed out in ad- vance of a never-built “Crosstown Expressway” that would have replaced the small, independent stores and row homes with car- filled lanes of highway. But the threat of destruction ended up mak- ing the street stronger. Artists and musicians swooped in, turning the area into a haven for alternative culture. “South Street has always had a unique style,” says Robert Perry, co-owner of Tattooed Mom, which opened there in 1997. “It’s al- ways brought a really interesting mix of people through our doors – people from all over the world, all over the region and all over the city.” On any given weekend nowadays, the crowds that roam the strip range from stroller-pushing parents, texting teens and chees- tattooed mom esteak-seeking college kids to hip-hop show-goers.

  • Allagash Brewing Company V. Cathie A. Pelletier _____
    This Opinion is Not a Precedent of the TTAB Mailed: September 22, 2015 UNITED STATES PATENT AND TRADEMARK OFFICE _____ Trademark Trial and Appeal Board _____ Allagash Brewing Company v. Cathie A. Pelletier _____ Opposition No. 91214028 to Application Serial No. 85779517 _____ James G. Goggin of Verrill Dana, LLP for Allagash Brewing Company Anthony D. Pellegrini of Rudman Winchell for Cathie A. Pelletier _____ Before Kuhlke, Mermelstein and Goodman, Administrative Trademark Judges. Opinion by Kuhlke, Administrative Trademark Judge: Applicant, Cathie A. Pelletier, seeks registration of the mark ALLAGASH WILD (in standard characters, ALLAGASH disclaimed) for goods identified as “Jellies and jams; Marmalades; Preserved fruits and vegetables,” in International Class 29.1 1 Application Serial No. 85779517, filed on November 14, 2012, based on an allegation of a bona fide intention to use the mark in commerce under Section 1051(b) of the Trademark Act, 15 U.S.C. § 1051(b). Opposition No. 91214028 Opposer, Allagash Brewing Company, has opposed registration of Applicant’s mark on the ground that as used in connection with Applicant’s goods, the mark so resembles Opposer’s previously used and registered mark ALLAGASH for beer, and previously used common law marks ALLAGASH WHITE, ALLAGASH BLACK, ALLAGASH TRIPEL and ALLAGASH CURIEUX for beer, as to be likely to cause confusion under Section 2(d) of the Trademark Act, 15 U.S.C. § 1052(d). By its answer, Applicant denied the salient allegations.2 In addition, Opposer presented argument on the issue of Applicant’s lack of a bona fide intent to use the mark. Implied consent to the trial of an unpleaded issue can be found only where the nonoffering party (1) raised no objection to the introduction of the evidence on the issue, and (2) was fairly apprised that the evidence was being offered in support of the issue.

  • Successful Craft Brewing
    GERMAN ENGINEERING BY HANDTMANN SUCCESSFUL CRAFT BREWING Allagash Challenges Allagash Brewing Company Taking the Allagash Brewery from Allagash Brewing Company started in 1995 as a one-man operation in a small space on the outskirts of Portland, Maine. Founder Rob Tod hose connections to a hard piped semi had worked in a brewery setting before and recognized a void within automated piping system. the craft brewing movement. While both German and British styles had become prevalent throughout the U.S., the ever-creative Belgian styles Automated and repeatable CIP were very difficult to find. Through his travels, Tod had sampled many of these unique beers and felt that the flavors and traditions of Belgium process for cellar equipment. needed to be shared with the American drinking public. He designed a small 15-barrel brewhouse, gathered the finest array of authentic raw materials and began his quest towards the production of traditional Belgian style ales. Rob sold his first batch of beer – Allagash White, modeled after a traditional Belgian witbier – in the summer of 1995. Today, Allagash has grown from a one-man operation into one of the Top 50 Craft Breweries in U.S. (by sales volume) and has earned a spot on Maine's Best Places to Work list for four years in a row running. Allagash has six year round beers in its portfolio, eight yearly releases and numerous specialty and draft-only releases. Among U.S. breweries, they have served as a pioneer of barrel-aging beer in oak barrels (beginning with the launch of Curieux in 2004) and were one of the first to spontaneously ferment beers with the use of a traditional Coolship (beginning in 2007).
