Harpoon Brewery
Commercial Brewery
in Boston,
Massachusetts,
United States 🇺🇸
Associated with 2 Venues
Established in 1986
In July 2014, Harpoon became an employee owned company, with 48% of the company given to employees through the establishment of an ESOP. An E-what? ESOP stands for Employee Stock Ownership Plan. It is a mechanism by which a company contributes to its employees’ retirement by allocating shares to them which it repurchases…..yadda, yadda, yadda… Here’s what it means: we are employee owned, we are an independent craft brewer, and you bet we’re damn proud of it.

Pours golden with a lacing white head. Aroma of honey, yeast, bread. Taste has full-bodied malt, some caramel, more yeast and bread. Palate is floral, somewhat dry, some lingering hops. Not bad.

Old rating from 27-10-16 - A 355ml bottle from in Whole Foods on my recent trip to NYC. Pours a hazy yellow colour with a tiny white head. Aromas of light coriander. Tastes of coriander, orange peel, wheat & malt. Aftertaste is on the sweet side. Somewhat of a disappointment.
