Ol Paulie Pabst is back with a vengeance on this weeks BeerJunkie review. If you havent had the pleasure of visiting Portland, Maine, and its bevy of brickroad breweries, youre missing out! This New England destination somehow manages to be simultaneously trendy and quaint, and it punches well above its weight class with its craft beer offerings.
And what better place to start than with a brew Pabst says has a Breaking Bad feel. Tune in for a full rundown of Bissell Brothers Brewings flagship beer, The Substance Ale IPA — a heavyweight, 6.6% beer that somehow drinks mellower than its stats suggest.
