GORHAM, ME. – Sebago Brewing Company is pleased to announce the release of their winter seasonal beer, Slick Nick Winter Ale on Friday October 19, 2012.

Slick Nick Winter Ale is brewed in the strong ale style. The caramel and black malts used to brew Slick Nick give it a deep amber color. Slick Nick has a creamy head, medium carbonation, and a slight fruity hop aroma.  This “insidious” brew is best enjoyed during New England’s freezing winter months. Slick Nick himself is pictured on the label, casing out the Victoria Mansion in Portland, Maine, on a blustery night. Warm up with one of Maine’s best winter offerings!
