Our Story

Prior to the Prohibition Era, between 1920 to 1933, the United States was home to over 2,000 craft breweries. By the 1980s 100 breweries barely remained. Thimble Island Brewing Company seeks to recreate the American tradition of having a local brewery that the community can enjoy.

The founders of Thimble Island Brewery are beer enthusiasts. They produce well balanced and traditional craft beers like their American Ale, that’s full-flavored, refreshing and can be enjoyed year round.

Thimble Island. Serious beer for serious beer lovers.
