Located in Portland, Maine, Peak Organic Beer Company was hatched by two friends in 1998 who began experimenting with some brewing equipment they had purchased as a birthday gift for another friend. Soon realizing their interest in making their own beers, the pair often drank their early wares after ‘peak’ experiences such as a day spent with family or in the outdoors. The company hasn’t lost that spirit, posting user-submitted photos from trips around the world all over their web site.
Peak’s Espresso Amber Ale is brewed with organic fair-trade espresso beans harvested locally by a like-minded coffee roastery located down the street. The partnership has yielded a terrific brew, with a toasty character that meshes well with the sweet malty flavor of the amber ale. Your morning coffee will never taste the same!
Peak's beers can be found in supermarkets, gourmet shops, natural food stores, restaurants, and pubs in regional locations across the country, including NYC.
