The final three Beer Camp festivals were slated for this past weekend, and those who attended the first four are raving about every last one of the 12-pack beers. Today Myron’s Walk, a Belgian-style pale ale brewed in collaboration with Allagash Brewing Company gets the spotlight.
“We looked at [the collaboration] fairly simply,” says Jason Perkins, the brewmaster at Allagash, “What are things that define Sierra Nevada and things that define Allagash? Let’s build a beer around commonalities of our beers.
Allagash makes Belgian-style beers, and in Perkins’s opinion Sierra Nevada makes “the best representation of a pale ale in the entire world.” So when it came time to create a beer that represented the two trademarks of these breweries, a pale ale fermented with the house yeast from Allagash seemed only natural.
