It is still a little ways out, but Allagash Brewing Company (Portland, ME) is about ready to ship this year edition of Fluxus. The beer is so named because the style changes each year, 2013’s edition is first and foremost a porter. Wait a minute though, it is not JUST a porter. Fluxus 2013 is brewed with coffee and chocolate malts, along with blood orange pulp and orange zest. Chocolate orange anyone? This edition was created by brewer Patrick Saville.
Look for it by August, 2013 in Allagash’s distribution markets.
