@Nate, I thought you’d like the story! Check out their site, maybe you’ll get some ideas!

@Jeff, Yeah, that is pretty funny. Pretty much polar-opposites between New England and the Caribbean!

I am pretty picky over summer ales and agree with your thoughts on shipyard (blaghh).
I haven’t had this one, but the story is intriguing. I love brewery start up stories.
I think just about anything is a no brainer when it comes to Corona & Landshark.

Haha, I had the similar moment with the “Made by Shipyard in Portland, ME” thing. I was down on St. John’s last summer and picked up their Mango IPA, being unable to resist a local craft beer… We all had a good laugh when my brother-in-law to be announced, “Hey, this is made in Maine by Shipyard! What the hell?” I guess you can say it’s locally crafted on island all you want… doesn’t mean it has to be.

That said, the IPA was pretty good and had a nice mango aroma that was nice in the hot, humid weather down there.
