Hey Folks,

As many of you know, this Saturday will be our final day at the brewery. Before we close our doors, I want to take a moment to say thank you—from the bottom of my heart—for all the love, support, and memories you've shared with us over the years. It's been an incredible journey, and I will truly miss each and every one of you.

I'll be at the brewery around 5 PM on Saturday, and I’d love the chance to catch up, share a toast, and say goodbye in person. It would mean a lot to see some familiar faces.
With gratitude,

Justin

P.S. If you have any gift cards, please swing by and use them over the next two days!

This is one of the harder messages I’ve ever had to write. After a lot of thought (and a lot of emotion), I’ve decided to close Thimble Island Brewing Company. Our last day of service will be Saturday, May 24.

Like many small businesses, we've faced some tough challenges over the past several years. Industry declines coupled with a strategic partnership that didn’t go as planned had a significant impact on our business. At the same time, I’ve been navigating some personal health challenges that made it clear I needed to pause, reset, and re-evaluate.

This business has been such a huge part of my life — not just professionally, but personally. It’s been full of long days, proud moments, and most importantly, incredible people like you who supported it, believed in it, and helped it grow. It has been a joy and a privilege to serve this community. Thank you for your support, trust, and encouragement.

Though this chapter is coming to a close, I’m looking ahead with gratitude and hope for what’s next.

With gratitude,

Justin

Meet Cloud Ritual; Naughty as Hell

Brewed with Vic Secret and Riwaka hops, this New England IPA delivers a heady haze of tropical citrus, subtle pine, and mystic florals. Cloudy and bold, it’s a voyage through misty realms—where secrets bloom in silence and every sip is a summoning.
