Founded in 2010 by two guys with nothing but passion and a dream, the Thimble Islands Brewing Company has quickly grown to become one of the largest self-distributing microbreweries in the entire state. Their brewery and tasting room is a popular place for locals and visitors to hang out, have a refreshing chilled beer, and to just have a good time with friends and family. There are 16 rotating tap lines on which you can usually find their American Ale, the India Pale Ale, Coffee Stout, the Ghost Island Double IPA, and their Thimble Lager which is smooth and never goes out of style.
