    I'm planning on going to Maine with the family next week. Could use some tips. Leaving this Saturday. I'm really hoping to be able to score some beer from bissel in the afternoon. Wondering what the odds of that might be. Also planning to hit bissel and foundation on Wednesday. How are epiphany releases? Recip? I'm thinking bissel first then foundation?

    Anything else I should do?

    Just check out the Bissell release schedule for what cans are released what day and follow the times. You are into summer time and vacation crowds now so the beer will go much quicker. If you can get to Bissell either early or within an hour of open you should be good. But they do release smaller batches of recip so it will go quickly.

    100% Bissel first, then foundation, Austin st, Alagash.

    You should be fine getting epiphany on release day within a few hours of release. A good amount of us up here have noticed something different about the beer today compared to a few years ago and it is often passed on so I wouldn't stress too much. Make sure to go to Austin Street behind foundation and to Alagash a short walk across the parking lot.

    Check out Barreled souls in Saco, Oxbow, and other beer bars and breweries in Portland.

    Aside from that, enjoy the trip!
