THE 2ND ANNUAL ALLAGASH SEAFOOD SOCIAL
SATURDAY, OCTOBER 5TH @12 PM
Join us on Saturday, October 5th, as we host a New England-style seafood bash with Allagash Brewing Company. Spend the afternoon feasting on oysters, clams casino and lobster rolls while enjoying 13 different beers from the Maine brewery and rocking out to some live music!
From 12-4 PM, Rustico Ballston Executive Chef Stephen McRae will be serving up an incredible bounty of the sea. The stars of the show are 6 types of fresh oysters, including 3 from the local Mid-Atlantic, 2 from New England and 1 from the West Coast.
Bringing in their familiarity for beers served alongside coastal cuisine, Allagash is sending 13 drafts for the occasion. You won’t want to miss your chance to catch the highly sought-after Face to Face, plus I Believe in Love and Trupenny Pilsner.
There is no admission fee for this event. All food will be priced a la carte. All Allagash beers will be priced individually by the glass and in 4 oz. tasting pours. The food menu and beer list are subject to change without notice.
