About Shipyard Brewing Company

Shipyard Brewing Company is a notable brewery in Portland, Maine, where brewers studied under renowned brewer Alan Pugsley. The brewery brews on-site, offering a variety of beers with distinct characters, including the praised Pumpkin Head beer, described as a light, sweet brew with flavors of pumpkin, cinnamon, and other spices. Reviewers also highlight the excellent hazelnut porter and original golden ale, though some stouts occasionally run out on tap. The spacious and inviting brewery is a great spot to stop in for a flight or try the blueberry ale with a blueberry rim.

The taproom is accessible to people with mobility disabilities, featuring a lowered bar section and ramp access through the gift shop. While some bathroom areas are not accessible, clear signage directs visitors to the accessible restrooms. The owner is great, and the location, food, beer, and people all receive high praise. A must-visit for beer enthusiasts, Shipyard Brewing Company is an overall top-notch spot, with the Fish Finder being a standout favorite for those in the know.

loved the blueberry beer

My hazelnut porter was an excellent beer. It was a shame to miss some stouts that ran out on tap. However I was pleasantly surprised by the original golden ale. Overall a great place to stop in for a flight.

ACCESSIBILITY AUDIT:
Shipyard is accessible to people with mobility (dis)abilities, though it isn't marked well until you get outside.

If you try to enter the taproom from the main entrance, there are a flight of stairs down, so you may think it's inaccessible. However, if you go through the gift shop, take a left upon entering, you can go down a ramp to the taproom.

I hope management responds to this review by putting up signs with arrows at the taproom entrance...read full review
