Description
Old Harbor Brewery was born in the Old San Juan guided by some of the most prestigious German beer makers, pursuing the dream of creating a beer, which it’s quality would be beyond compare. Established in 1996, Old Harbor Brewery is the first Craft Micro Brewery in Puerto Rico. Since the beginning, we knew that ingredients matter that is why we use Weyerman malts, from Germany. Our Passion to create unequaled quality beer has been recognized by the world-renowned World Beer Cup in Germany, the Playboy Magazine, and the US Beer Tasting Competition among other prestigious entities, endorsing our commitment to keep doing superior beers.
In 2017 the brewery was consolidated from Old San Juan to the main brewery in Carolina, PR. We kept all the same beers recipes, processes, equipments, brands, ingredients and Brew Master, reaffirming our commitment to provide the ultimate premium Craft Beer in Puerto Rico and the Caribbean.

From a pharmacy: pours gold with really frothy white head. Aroma is bready, light fruity hints. Sweet. Pretty one dimensional, but drinkable enough.

On tap at El Tap in San Juan Hazy light gold in color with a thin tan head that dissipates quickly. Earthy grassy citrus and pine with hints of fruit and a bready maltiness to back it up Not bad.

Bottle from the 24 market Isla Verde enjoyed in the hotel room. Mostly clear light gold in color with a decent sized off white head that slowly dissipates. Bready crackery malt light earth and floral hops to counter. Not bad.

I have a compulsion, I freely admit it. I'm drinking a pumpkin ale that was undoubtedly bottle in the fall of 2019 on March 18th of the following year. This is my compulsion. Clear as day. 12oz bottle pours a clear, dark orange with some frothy white head. Nose has spices, some root veg, some malt, a little celery. Flavor has some toffee, muted spice, celery is back. Finishes watery. What did I expect?
