π Short History:
Monhegan Brewing Company is a family-owned and operated brewery located on Monhegan Island, Maine, USA. The brewery was established in 2013 by Matt and Mary Weber, along with Mary's father, Danny McGovern.
The idea of starting a brewery on the island came to the family after they realized that the island, which is a popular tourist destination, lacked a local brewery. Matt Weber, who is the head brewer, had prior experience in brewing as he worked at the Lakefront Brewery in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, for several years.
Monhegan Brewing Company is known for its small-batch beers, which are brewed using a 7-barrel system. The brewery produces a variety of beer styles, including IPAs, stouts, and Belgian-style ales. The beers are sold in the brewery's tasting room and are also distributed in select locations in Maine.
The brewery is unique in its location, as Monhegan Island is 12 miles off the coast of Maine and is only accessible by boat. This remote location adds to the charm and appeal of the brewery. Despite the logistical challenges of operating a brewery on an island, Monhegan Brewing Company has managed to thrive and has become a beloved part of the local community.
