Monhegan Brewing Company

Monhegan Brewing Company We're a seasonal family owned craft brewery on Monhegan Island, 10 miles off the coast of Maine. Matt is a lobsterman and Mary is the school teacher.
(433)

Mary and Matt Weber are year round residents of Monhegan Island, which lies just 34 miles east of the suspected center of the universe. About a year ago, Matt took a semi-informal course in business planning and as his example he used a brewery. With Mary's father being a master brewer it seemed reasonable. The end of the course coincided with the end of a slow summer harpooning tuna fish, and it

dawned on Matt that a brewery on Monhegan might be a viable entity. After plenty of mature, serious consideration by pretty much everyone involved but Matt, they went ahead and started their own little brewery! Mary and Matt take care of the day to day operations but more importantly, "We are lucky enough to have Danny McGovern brewing our beer! With nearly 30 years of perfecting his craft we are thrilled to make great beer and keep it in the family." "Mary and I love life on Monhegan and feel it can only be improved upon if there were a constant supply of hand crafted beer on the island. Our promise to you- if you and yours come for a visit (and who doesn't want to come to a Maine island in summer?) we'll keep the beer cold for you!"

Cheers! - Mary & Matt Weber

Happy Father’s Day to all, but especially to Danny McGovern! He taught his daughters most of what we know, but most notably, he teaches us how to make good beer!

This year, as we do every year, sisters from sister breweries worked together to honor Danny with Sibling Rivalry, a collaborative brew served here and at Lake St. George Brewing in Liberty.

This year’s style? A pale ale brewed with spruce tips foraged from both Monhegan and Liberty! The addition of spruce tips provides a subtle herbal sweetness that compliments the malts and the Cascade/Centennial hops profile. Cheers!

Happy Pride Month!
We’ve teamed up with our sister brewery .georgebrewingcompany to create a shirt design that is reflective of all the things that make us unique and those that unite us. As family businesses who celebrate, uplift and support each other, we recognize our collective community for doing the same!
Pride shirts are available at Lake St George in Liberty and here on Monhegan.
$5 from the sale of each shirt sold in June will support the very important work of in Rockland.
Cheers to love, inclusivity and the power of community!
