Cope Cod Beer, found all over the Cape. on tap at all restaurants and bars and for good reason, it's great beer! We went to the brewery on our last day each had a flight of five and we got to keep the glass as a souvenir!

Cape Cod Beer is a great place to visit. Lots of really great drinks, rotating drafts, drink specials. The staff are always pleasant and knowledgeable. Food is often available but it is a rotating vendor and I'm not sure if they have food every day, or just the weekends. They have lots of live music and many different types of games available. They also do many different types of events, including educational ones! Highly recommend checking this place out if you get the chance.

Cape Cod Beer is amazing! We hosted a welcome event for ~100 people in advance of our wedding and they knocked it out of the park. Leanne was a joy to work with and truly went above and beyond in helping us get everything set up for the event. The bar staff was polite and friendly and many of my guests told me about how great the venue was. If you're looking for a place to host an event on the Cape, I cannot recommend Cape Cod Beer enough!

We had a great time visiting Cape Cod Beer! They offered a wide variety of beers to try, and each one had its own unique flavor—something for every taste. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. The atmosphere was lively and relaxed, with live music adding a great vibe to the evening. We were also pleasantly surprised by the food—it was delicious and paired perfectly with the beer. Overall, Cape Cod Beer is a must-visit if you’re in the area and enjoy craft brews, good food, and a fun, laid-back environment

This brewery had a lot of beers. They had a few IPAs and everything else you could think of. The best part of was the tasting, you get 5 different 5oz samples and you get to keep the glass after! The place was pretty large and looks like they have lot of fun during the “on” season. The bartender was super nice and was great to chat with. Very open:chill vibe and recommend stopping in.

Beer is OK, their darker beers were pretty good, but their IPAs were not so good. Facility is interesting, lots of indoor and outdoor seating, and staff was friendly and helpful. Pricing for tastings is excellent.

I enjoy visiting this brewery due to its impressive beer selection. The porter, in particular, stood out to me for its exceptional flavor, and I was so impressed that I decided to take some home. It's definitely a place worth checking out!

Fun brewery with outside and inside seating. They had a guy playing guitar which really set the brewery mood. So many good beers and if you want to try them all you can get a sampler that lets you bring your tasting cup back to try different ones! And you get to keep the glass! Their beach blonde is my favorite beer on the Cape so visiting the brewery is a must!

Love this place. Great spot to pop in for a beer. Nice variety of things to try. Staff is always great, owners accessible and friendly. Great live music several times a month. It's a basically a warehouse so not exactly cozy but it's functional and comfortable. Outdoor area is basically a parking lot but plenty of seating and out door taps in summer.

Came here twice in the week we spent in Hyannis, it was a highlight both times. First, the service is outstanding. Sawyer, Henlen & Zo were the absolute best. Especially Zo, who also served as concierge, lol. They are responsible for many wonderful memories because we followed their advice. Game night was FABULOUS with Brianne & her adorable little assistant. Loved chatting with locals, it was such a fun night! I am considering only staying in Hyannis in the future so we can go to CCB!

We sat outside at the picnic table which there was plenty of them. They had lots of umbrellas over the tables. Also, if you were getting too hot in the sun. They actually had music trivia night when I arrived, which was really fun. I did not have any food, but I had a couple drinks which were delicious. We had to go inside to order our beers, which was no problem. They had lots of choices and I enjoyed the selection. The servers inside were very helpful and answered all questions I had about any beers I was thinking about. I would go back again.

Great vibe, very tasty beer, and super friendly staff, we had a great time! The food from the BBQ truck was also delicious. Everyone there was in a great mood and we met some friendly people. We'll be back!

Really relaxed vibe indoors & out with knowledgeable staff. I love customer service workers that know their stuff & appreciate their craft. Soyer, Henlynn & Zo got us right together with these flight selections! Zo gave 4-1-1 on all to do in the area. Gotta love it. Lessons on brews & where to slde through while on vacation! We took notes! My wife & I each did our own flight as Caoe Cod newbies. I truly enjoyed my time at CCB. The friendliness of the patrons & staff, the inclusiveness! Needless to say, but we'll be back for Yappy hour & music bingo or trivia. Big ups to The Big Dipah & the tropical trippy Sour Ale, it was hittin'! I also enjoyed the bold brew blend!

HOW FUN! I'm not a beer drinker but the hubby was giddy and happy - which means wifey can get whatever she asks for... hehehe! I love ciders, and that didn't disappoint. Plenty of games, spacious, indoor and outdoor seating (weather permitting) and fresh seafood for sale on weekends! The staff is super friendly, professional and won't take shennanigans lightly if you are getting a bit "roudy and crowdy" - so keep that in mind. Find your fav brew and have a blast!

Cape cod beer was on our to do list so we made it here. It's a cool place that has indoor and outdoor seating. They've got board games as well. I got a sea salt lemonade cider. It sounds amazing but it wasn't what I thought it was. It was still refreshing. A little tart. My dad enjoyed his beer. We sat inside as it was chilly out. They seem to have trivia nights or some live music depending on the days. This is a place I would hang out if I lived here.

Great place to hang out with family or friends and have a few libations. We went here after lunch on our way back to B&B. We have a few dietary restrictions among our group and everyone found something to their liking. Lots of in the sun and out of the sun seating. They had a BBQ food truck for those looking to eat. Also a few games for those looking to challenge others at. Extensive beer selection, some non-alcoholic beer as well as wine and hard ciders. Their wine selection is limited and tends to be on the sweet side. They have a stage, and when we were there, a Country singer was the entertainment. All and all a great place to hang out at.

I lived this spot! It's always great to find a relaxing brewery to hang out at when you are traveling. I had the kettle sour, which was tart and refreshing. The folks pouring beer were very helpful and friendly with their recommendations. Sitting outside on a nice sunny day was perfect.

The favorite brewery on Cape Cod for my money.Really chill and laid back, always something going on in the "court yard",usually great music, food truck, or cornhole,sometimes all three happening.Beer selection is all encompassing with wine and spritzers available

What a great brewey to spend an afternoon! We've had Cape Cod Beer many times while we've been on the Cape, but this was our first time visiting the brewey. Before our trip, I knew I wanted to visit and try their beers on tap. When we arrived on a Saturday afternoon, there was an event going on with live music. We had to pay a fee to get in, but it was an awesome vibe with tables set up outside and live music playing! We ordered a couple different beers and some fried pickles. I don't know if they make the food in-house or if there was a food truck. It was hard to tell because of the event. Either way, it was so good! My favorite beer was their Blonde Ale, classic brew and PERFECT on a hot summer day. Cape Cod Beer is also dog friendly (inside & out) which was such a joy as I read some breweries on the Cape aren't.

Cape Cod Beer is a craft brewery that opened in Hyannis, Massachusetts in April 2004. It was founded by husband and wife Todd and Beth Marcus. Since 1998, Todd had worked as the head brewer at the old Hyport Brewing Company on Main Street in Hyannis. This brewery had been known by a variety of names, including Cape Cod Brewhouse and Hyannisport Brewing Company. In 2003, Todd was laid off from the struggling brewery. He asked the owner if he could brew beer on equipment not being used, and Cape Cod Beer was born. Todd's 'gypsy brewery' operation soon earned him a handful of accounts in the mid cape area. By 2005, Hyport Brewing suddenly went out of business overnight. Todd and Beth quickly purchased Hyport's brewing equipment. They opened Cape Cod Beer at its current location the following year, and soon began hiring their first employees. Today, Cape Cod Beer is the oldest still-operating brewery in Cape Cod. My wife and I have been visiting Cape Cod Beer since we first discovered them on a trip in 2013. During our first visit, their beer repertoire consisted of only five or six beers. Today they have approximately 100 different beers that rotate throughout the year. They have a really nice facility complete with a large tasting room and tons of merchandise. The brewery also offers tours on a regular basis. One of our favorite offerings of theirs is the 'Beach Blonde Ale'. The beer is a very drinkable golden ale that goes down real easy. It's the perfect beer to bring to the beach, and we have done just that several times. As Cape Cod Beer's slogan goes, there's "a vacation in every pint." We agree and we make sure to grab some whenever we're vacationing on the cape.

We visited Cape Cod Beer on a weekday afternoon and had a great time. I like the way they do tastings - five samples one at a time, and you get to keep the glass. It worked well for me because I really liked the Biere de Mars and ended up getting that one twice and then took a four-pack home. They have an impressive range of beers, both in number and variety. We sat outside and enjoyed it. We got clam chowder, a pretzel, and kettle corn from the food truck. The clam chowder was excellent and service was delightful. Overall, great beers, easy parking, fun setting, and great merch. Highly recommend.

Fun. The variety of beers and cocktails is grand. I was worried it was just going to be beer but it was t. They also have food and gifts. Very nice atmosphere to just sit and relax with few drinks

This is a great local brewery offering both outside and inside seating. Frequently there's entertainment. Drinks are not limited to beer alone, but the beer choices, both regular and seasonal, are great for beer lovers. Try it, you'll like it.

Great tap room on our trip to cape cod. Very good beer. Music bingo was fun. We played 3 games won two. They asked us to leave (joking). A lot of fun. Dog friendly.

5 star beer. 1 star food. So averaging out to ~3 stars. I've been coming here once a year for the last 5-6 years - I've always loved what Cape Cod Beer represented and loved the fact that they offered some of the best priced tastings anywhere (currently not offered due to COVID). The beer is consistently great. Saison is one of my favorites anywhere and their new beers are super delicious - the fur missile and NE ipa in particular. Unfortunately, due to COVID, tables are REQUIRED to order food. Which is fine, I get it, it's the law. However, the food is a COMPLETE ripoff. Take a look at the pictures. One tiny pretzel stick for $6??? One small skewer of chicken for $8??? In what world is that remotely justified? Those two food items would be considered reasonably priced at maybe 1/2 of what they are currently priced at. It's such a pity because the beers are still pretty good. Get whatever the cheapest thing on the menu is to satisfy the requirement to order food and enjoy the great beers. Or find another place to enjoy great beers where they'll serve you food that isn't ridiculously priced.

Amazing experience. Live entertainment, tables spaced out safely, beer options, cocktails, wine and food. Very causal and relaxed vibe here. The server who was clearly very busy, was very personable and engaging. We have always loved coming to this brewery but this experience was so well structured. They are going out of their way to make sure everyone remains safe and still have the feeling of being on vacation or a relaxing afternoon. Can't wait to visit again

Swung by here for the Mardi Gras weekend - rating the location and beer only; not the event - lots of room for them to make a much better party! The beer taste really great, and service was pleasant and speedy. The big disappointment here is plastic drinkware! Don't serve good beer in plastic cups, then hang a sign that says there's a plastic cup shortage and consider using your Solo cup for your refills. I enjoyed the sour and two stouts, but they would have been infinitesimally better in the right glasses, and there wasn't that big a crowd that they were short staffed to not be able to wash glasses. Easy solution to elevate what should be a fantastic brewery.

We were staying in Hyannis and decided to check out Cape Cod Beer. The staff was friendly and helpful. My husband and I got flights. They were served in portions one at a time which was a little weird, but it was fine. The beer was tasty and they had food which switches up.

Fun place to try some beers. Dog friendly is a plus. Like the hazy IPA and the coffee stout.

First time here on a quiet afternoon, absolutely no complaints enjoying the relaxing vibe as I can imagine it is the calm before the storm for the evening and weekend. Heading up to the Cape for the weekend, we stopped here along with the Cape Cod Chip Factory. Two must sees if you are visiting the Cape. The system is pretty straight forward, you'll get casino clips that you will use to redeem for a pour. No wooden flights here everything is one pour at a time, which isn't bad for me as I enjoy a nice cold pour fresh from the tap rather than it get warm. I had a couple of the signature drafts, a few lagers, ales and some unique ones for the season. We sat the bar and had a nice conversation with the ladies there. The location isn't a taproom per se but they make the best of it. There is a gift area in front and the bar in the back with a projector for the tour along with some games. It looks like a warehouse with the large tanks behind the bar and a couple shelves with cans waiting to go out. What is nice is they support the other local business whether its the CIdery and a Vineyard as well. Big supporter of local businesses and great they collaborate together. The drive is hard to get to being out there but you best believe this should be on the list heading to Provincetown or anywhere near the Cape.

Just enjoying an afternoon with my dog at Hathaway Pond and decided to have lunch at one of the food trucks at Cape Cod Beer. Of course, a blonde beer hit the spot. Cold, crisp and very tasty. The beer garden was open, very relaxing and plenty of sitting space.

A no frills, relaxed brewery with an awesome line up for fresh beer. We enjoyed our pint in the tasting room while playing with some of the provided games. There is seating available outside but not much of a view. They host lots of weekly events as well as special events. Staff was friendly too. Clean bathrooms and nice gift shop. The beers are unpasteurized so they have to be kept refrigerated to keep fresh. Definitely worth a stop and perhaps a drive to visit too!

Cape Cod beer just keeps getting better and better. I was just there in the past week and we got to enjoy their farmers market, and their food, and there are additional types of beers as well as their special hydrangea fest mixed drink. It's so great to see this place expand and also make their beer menu even bigger too. When the season is right I would love to try their sours and their lighter beers as they look just as great. Oh and also they are dog friendly which is the bomb

My mom and I came up here on a rainy day on Cape Cod. It's tough to find something to do here on inclement weather days, so this is a nice option if you like beer, plus it doesn't cost much. It is pet friendly here, but we didn't bring the Cujo monster since we planned on visiting the nearby JFK museum that day. They do offer a free daily tour at 11 am, I believe that's the only one since it's a working factory. The tour consists of sitting at tables and listening to someone talk, so I would say this is good for people that are mobility impaired. I opted to spend the $5 for 5 three ounce samples, you also get to take the small glass home as a souvenir. They give you one sample at first and four other casino chips that you trade in for other beers. To be honest, I'm more into fruity Hefeweizen type beers or ciders, but the brews here will appeal more to those that like more traditional brews. Super cool that they had a brew in honor of JFK's 100th birthday and so appropriate since this IS Hyannis! Mom doesn't drink beer, but they had a couple of beverages available for non-drinkers. I believe one option was root beer. There is a really cute gift shop, I loved the t-shirts and pint glasses that were for sale.

A fun time had by all. We got here in time for the tour and eagerly joined the crowd. The wonderful employee ( I had too much sample to remember her name...cute blond) gathered us 'round and started telling us the story of cape beer. For $6 you get 4 coins for 4 different tastings. I tried my fave the Cape Red and the Harvest were my fav but the Barnstable Blond was also yummy. It was a good crowd and we learned each stage of beer production. Very fun 'tour' (seated at tables in the tasting area) and got to try the different malts they use. All I can say is that 12 oz of beer on a semi empty tummy makes you very happy! Cheers to Tom who is running in the marathon on Patriots Day!

I stopped by here this past Monday with my wife for some afternoon beers. We were in Hyannis with a little time to kill whenever we looked up breweries and found Cape Cod and so headed over. The inside of Cape Cod Beer is divided into two distinct sections with the front being where you can buy their ample amount of mercahndise, growlers and cans to go. Then the back is where you can order pints and samplers. It's massive with a concrete floor, huge projection screen, tables with seating and views of their kettle, mash turn, hot liquor tank and whirlpool. They also had a pop up kitchen that was pushed up against the wall and not open on the day we were there. As I often do whenever I visit a new brewery, I went with a flight here. At Cape Cod beer that consists of 5 beers for $6 and you get to take the taster glass home! Where it's a little different from other places is that they only serve you one at a time and so you get your first one and then 4 tokens to use for the rest. For my beers I ended up choosing the Cape Cod Red, Cranberry Harvest, R&R Tropical Stout, Cape Cod IPA and Bitter End Imperial IPA. For my first beer I order the Cape cod red which starts off with a nice amber flavor with some caramel flavor before finishing lighter. Up second was Cranberry Harvest which starts off with the tartness from the cranberry before the sweet maltiness kicks in and continues through the finish. Third on this day was the R&R Tropical Stout which was part of the black ale project which craft breweries throughout the US are joining to raise money and awareness of behalf of US War Veterans. It starts off with that dark roasted flavor before finishing with a hint of smokiness. Fourth was the Cape Cod IPA which starts off nice and smooth before moving into some citrus and finishing with that hoppy bitterness. Last but not least was the Bitter End Imperial IPA which was very smooth and the start before finishing with a good sweetness which belies its 8.3% ABV. Out of all of the beers I would have to say that the Cape Cod IPA was my favorite with the R&R Tropical Stout a close second. The bottom line for me is that I would head back here again in the future. All of the beers that I had here were really good and I appreciated their dedication to being green and helping out good causes.

Planned a bachelor party Cape weekend around doing their weekly Saturday 11am tour and hanging out at the beer garden. I had been wanting to go for a very long time and was so excited to finally get the chance. The tour was awesome and informative to how their process is different from other places and it was cool to learn about they're self distributing despite probably being the most recognizable cape beer. The tour included the tasting, which was 5 3oz samples or a free pint AND you got to keep the glass. The Harvest was definitely my favorite! Everyone in the group enjoyed the beer and also the BBQ food truck that was there. Would definitely recommend and can't wait to go back!

I honestly didn't expect a lot from this place, it sounded a bit like a tourist trap. I couldn't have been more wrong. We arrived and the staff were delighted to see us and our dogs, quickly offering water dishes and explaining the process to us. Dogs are not welcome in the tasting room itself, but we were able to go in, check out the selections, and then get new drinks from the gift shop area, which was dog-friendly. They offer tokens to try their beers, and have ~6 or so options available to try. They're actually quite good, and offer a few select options for purchase only (not taste). For double the tokens you can also try ciders from their cider flight (from Shoal Hope Ciderworks - official tasting room for their cidery). These were quite good too. In addition to all this, you could try flights of some local Cape wines, and they also had beer cocktails where they mixed some of their beers with liquor to make fun summer drinks. Their staff was really incredible - always friendly, helpful, and their beer and other drink options were great. Definitely don't miss this spot if you're anywhere near the central Cape. A gem.

We went to the 70s show on Saturday the music was great the people working the event and at the bars were wonderful. Sadly I would not attend a seated event at the taproom again, the seating was far too crowded and very claustrophobic, we ended up sitting out in the lobby for most of the show just hearing the band through the walls . The band themselves were wonderful and if they were to play again outside we would be there for sure . The Craigville Sunset was delicious!!

We visited here in October and purchased some beers. They had a nice set up like a beer garden sort of thing in their parking lot and were serving folks food and beer outside. We just picked up some beers to go and browsed their small selection of retail items: some sweatshirts, glasses, magnets, souvenirs, etc. Unfortunately, many of their beers were only available on tap the day we visited and the selection of growlers and cans was a bit limited. Really enjoyed their IPA, however. Convenient location and easy to find.

I have so many great things to say about this brewery. first thing, great variation in styles. they have a huge variety of styles and flavors that meets every flavor profile you're in the mood for. not only that, but every style we tasted were delicious!! we also had the pleasure of meeting the owner, Beth. My husband, Tom, recognized her from a video Cape Cod Beer posted on Youtube. we recognized her and introduced ourselves and she sat and talked with us for 15 minutes. Such a kind and thoughtful woman. she gave us suggestions on where to visit in Cape Cod since we're visitors and was wonderful to talk to. we felt amazing that the owner of the brewery took the time to sit and talk with us. i will forever support this beer. delicious! a must see in Cape Cod. We will be back!!

I went to Cape Cod Beer with my family while we were in a short vacation in the Capecod and Nantucket Island. Searched for local brewery and found this gem! Despite of Covid situation, this place was very friendly, clean, with safely distanced sitting arrangements; and more importantly beautiful selection of beers and even cocktails. Live music was icing on the cake!!! Foods could be ordered by texting. Kids friendly and plenty of parking spaces. We arrived there just before noon (opened at noon) on Sunday and there were already people waiting. Must try place if you are a beer lover and enjoy beer with live music in a sunny day or warm evening!!

Yelp
The beer here is VERY good. We enjoyed the Beach Blonde, the Pilsner, the Red, and Shillelagh. All were very good, and we brought some home with us. Good selection for every beer palate. Excellent beer truck food, too (not associated, I believe). Inside is nice, outside ambiance is a parking lot, but none of us minded that. Highly recommend!

Went to Cape Cod on a whim with my teacher bff during one of our Spring breaks. Lucky for us we stumbled upon Cape Cod Beer and were in for quite the treat. We spent the majority of the day chatting with other patrons while tasting a plethora of tasty brews and even a few wines! It wasn't too crowded so we got in a very long game of giant Jenga. If we return to the area again, this will be our first stop.

I've shaken the shame of never entering this establishment before and sprinted to my MacBook Pro to tell you why it is wonderful. The first, almost overwhelming stop in this experience is the store. My head was swimming. I started pulling out cash and throwing it at merchandise. From growler lamps to emergency evacuation shirts that suggest beer is the only belonging worth salvaging, my brain whirled at the options. My friend had to grab me by the shirt collar and drag me into the brewery; he also picked up all the cash I'd tossed around the store, later explaining "that is not how commerce works." Once inside the main attraction, we delighted in learning for only $5 we could procure 5 flight-sized beer samples AND keep the branded glass afterward. As an avid fan of John F. Kennedy and strong proponent of the theory he was assassinated by a second shooter, imagine my ecstasy at discovering the now-on-tap JFK CentenniALE. I attempted to haggle with the purveyor to purchase the tap handle, but no dice (these handles can be purchased in-store, but unfortunately not this limited edition handle. If you're reading this, Cape Cod Beer, do the right thing and hook a brother up with a sale). Anyway, the "tour" is a single-take experience within this vaulted Cape beer heaven. Our tour guide was giving her very first presentation, but did so with true grace and dignity. She got an assist from a different employee who brought it home with some more detailed beer production talk. We even got to chew on grain, which resembled pine nuts or sunflower seed kernels. Smelling hops in a jar was another feature, a visceral shock to my nasal passages. With the tour completed, I was released back into the store where my friend lost his stronghold on my rabid fervor. I dropped something like $150 on several four packs of beer, merch, who knows what (it was such a tornado of binge-purchasing I'm not even sure what I bought). We walked outside, enjoyed some cornhole-watching, and headed out. Would I come back? Yes. Would I spend $150 again in the store? Yes. What's on my Christmas list? Everything else in the store. I will be back, and I want that JFK tap handle.

This a chill & casual brewery. Came by on a Saturday afternoon and it was filled but not too packed. There's a parking lot, indoor and outdoor seating. We got the beer tasting which comes with 5 - 3 oz glasses of the beer of your choice for only $6! I like lighter beers so the blonde was my favorite but their IPAs were good too. It was so worth doing the tasting. They give you 5 chips so you get one glass each and you go back to the bar and give them another chip for your next glass. The best part is that they will rinse your last glass and you can kept it as a souvenir. Probably the best $6 I've spent! There are also a ton of games here - board games, corn home, foosball, card games. We also bought a big jug of beer to take home for $15. Love how everything they sell is all local.

We paid them a visit during the small farmer's market that Cape Cod Beef has every Friday 3pm - 6pm. There was a food truck, live music and the opportunity to sample 5 tastes of beer (good sized samples!) for $5. We didn't care for the beer, but it was a nice way to while away an afternoon.

My husband and I stopped here on our way to Cape Cod. It was a warm, sunny day and this place offered a nice outdoor seating area, one portion covered, one portion uncovered. You walk through a gift shop area before heading back to the tasting room, which is actually the warehouse where the beer is made. It was kind of cool to see where everything was produced. There were tables and folding chairs for indoor seating options with a shelf full of board games and card games. They also had a projector displaying upcoming events at the brewery as well as community events. We both ended up getting the sampler. It was set up a little differently as you received one 4 oz glass (also a souvenir) where you try one beer at a time. It was nice because we could go out and enjoy the sunshine yet move around a little when it was time for the next sample. The beers themselves were pretty good and the price was very reasonable, especially leaving with a glass in hand! Oh yeah, and this brewery is dog friendly as well! So go enjoy a beer with fido on the next nice day!

Very glad we made time to visit this very cool place. We did the self paced tour, which is basically walking 50 feet to the tasting room. A nice young lady explained the choices for us and poured a good sized cup of the beers of the day straight from a pitcher. Today the choices were Cape Cod IPA, Cape Cod Red, Cape Cod Summer, and Cape Cod Beach Blonde. The Blonde was my favorite- a delicious light beer. You can buy growlers of any of the choices, but beware- the beer is not chock full of preservatives so you have to keep it cold or it will go bad. The brewmaster told us to "treat it like a quart of milk". They have a very large gift shop with the usual T-Shirts and hats, but they also have a large supply of beermaking supplies for the home brewer. I have recently started to dabble in this hobby, and the brewmaster was very kind and informative when I asked him a question about a flavoring additive I wanted to buy. We had a blast here, and I think you will too.

We spent our honeymoon in Cape Cod and after enjoying their beer at multiple restaurants in the area, visited the brewery for a tasting! The Beach Blonde is delicious.

Love this brewery. First visited Sept during their Funktoberfest celebration. Now back again on the eve of Halloween. Great beers, great vibe, really nice employees (and such cool swag for sale). More breweries should aspire to the delicious level of comfort of Cape Cod Beer. A must visit every time we travel on Cape.
