Description
OCB has been hitting, hopping and dosing brews with creativity since acid-washed jeans were hip β€” throwing a bit of kind into the kettle whenever possible. Look for our hop-soaked ales and delicious lagers around New England and the mid-Atlantic.

Acquired by Long Trail in 2010 with the brewing facility eventually sold to Whistle Pig. Currently operating as a brand owned and marketed by Harpoon.
