About
Harpoon Brewery

The Harpoon Brewery was founded by beers lovers, Rich
Doyle and Dan Kenary.  In 1986 Harpoon was issued Brewing Permit #001 by
the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, since it was the first brewery to brew
commercially in the state after a dormant period of about 25 years. 
Harpoon‰Ûªs line of craft beer features its award-winning IPA and UFO Hefeweizen
beers, along with four special seasonal selections. In 2000 Harpoon purchased a
second brewery in Windsor, VT, making Harpoon the 11^th largest craft
brewer in the US.  Harpoon has since introduced two lines of limited
edition beers, the 100 Barrel Series and the Leviathan Series, as well as the
all-natural Harpoon Cider made from freshly pressed, local apples.  For
