Craft Beer Minute- Sebago Brewing Company Photo: 98.9 WCLZ, WCLZ
Hello, and welcome to the
CLZ Craft Beer Minute! My name is Sean – I work in the sales department at ‘CLZ and consider myself a local brew aficionado! I’ll be here helping you explore Maine’s local breweries two beers at a time.
Our next brewery in this series is
Sebago Brewing Company. Their Brewery & Tasting Room is located in Gorham, but they also have four other conveniently located brewpubs.
Frye’s Leap IPA: coming in at 6% ABV. You get big flavors of malt and grapefruit. It’s named after a 50-foot ledge on Sebago Lake. Legend has it that Captain Joseph Frye leapt off it to escape pursuers. I’m told co-founder Kai also took the plunge himself!

With so many Maine beers to choose from, it can be hard to decide what to try next, so who better to look to for a recommendation than the people running Maine’s breweries?
We asked the brewers and presidents at some of the state’s biggest breweries what they’re drinking now, and while they gave shoutouts to go-tos from their own lineups, they didn’t hesitate to name their favorites from their fellow Maine beer makers.
