<p class="">Happy Monday, Thieves! We’re off to Portland, Maine, this week for a string of shows. First up is our local guide, Also known as "The Beer Babe," Carla started her craft beer website and blog in 2007, sharing her thoughts on new beers, brewery visits, and "beer adventures." After moving to Portland, Maine several years later, she became deeply immersed in the vibrant Maine beer community, exploring its people, places, and unique stories. Through her writing, Carla has profiled the once-overlooked craft beer scene of New England, offering insights and advice on the region's best and most interesting fermented drinks. She has been a columnist for The Bollard, Portland Press Herald, MaineToday.com, and Beer & Weed Magazine, as well as regularly writing on her own blog. After welcoming a daughter at the end of 2023, Carla has stepped back from beer writing to focus on family life but continues to nurture her love for local craft beer.
