Allagash Fluxus Ale 2013

2013 version is porter brewed with blood oranges.Rated 95 on RateBeer.com Allagash Fluxus is a beer of continuous change. Brewed differently every year to commemorate our anniversary this year’s Fluxus is a porter brewed with a blend of 2-row coffee and chocolate malts with blood orange pulp and zest. It was hopped using Perle Tettnang and Glacier varieties. It was then fermented with a Belgian Abbey yeast. The resulting beer is dark brown in color with chocolate and roasted notes throughout the flavor and aroma. The blood orange has a subtle presence in the aroma and the zest expresses itself in the mouth-drying finish by leaving a lingering bitterness. This full bodied ale was the creation of Allagash brewer Patrick Saville lover of heavy metal beer and all things dark.
