Craft Beer Storm Brewing on Cape and Islands

Currently, seven brewers claim Cape Cod, Martha’s Vineyard or Nantucket as their home, with Cape Cod Beer, Devil’s Purse Brewing, Cisco Brewers, Offshore Ale and Bad Martha Beer physically brewing on the cape and islands. Although Farmer Willie’s Alcoholic Ginger Beer and Naukabout Beer employ off-cape contract brewers, they both have cape roots and are exploring the establishment of on-cape breweries. What follows are snapshots of a few of the cape’s brewers, and some sudsy suggestions.
