UMaine mentioned in AP story on sake market
Metro, a daily newspaper in Canada, carried an Associated Press story about sake joining the ranks of artisan brewing. Dan Ford’s Maine-made sake is hitting what he thinks is an untapped market. Ford, who launched Blue Current Brewery, received assistance from the University of Maine and used a Kickstarter campaign to raise funds for his rice to be shipped from Minnesota. A distributor will sell the sake for $25 for 750-millilitre bottles and $15 for 350-millilitre bottles.
