In 1986 Harpoon co-founders Rich Doyle and Dan Kenary began brewing Harpoon in Boston to share with others the joy of making—and drinking—great beer. In 2000, we added a second brewery in Windsor, Vermont to keep up with the demand. As a regional craft brewer, we gained interest and respect for cider, a drink with strong roots and history in New England. Harpoon’s cider is our contribution to the long heritage of cider made with fresh juice from locally grown apples.

Best With: 
Try this cider as an accompaniment with cheese, pork dishes, or simply enjoy it on its own. Cooking with Cider: enjoy cider-marinated pork, or use cider to steam mussels. Serve Cider: as an apertif, at brunch, and for special occasions. Bring Cider: along for picnics and parties. Mix Cider: with Harpoon beer. Cider and beer have a heritage in New England that dates back to the Pilgrims. The two drinks can be enjoyed together or you can enjoy cider on its own. Here are some of our recommendations. Try mixing Harpoon Cider with the following Harpoon Beers: Harpoon Cider + Harpoon Brown = Copperhead; Harpoon Cider + UFO Hefeweizen = Apfelweizen; Harpoon Cider + UFO Raspberry Hefeweizen = Indian Summer; Harpoon Cider + Harpoon Winter Warmer = Apple Pie!

The Harpoon 100 Barrel Series Ginger Wheat Ale is an ode to brewer Scott Shirley’s favorite spice, ginger. The earthy, warming flavor of this golden-hued ale is derived from fresh ginger. Honey from a local New Hampshire farm yields a slight sweetness to balance the ginger spiciness. A hint of lemon adds acidity and rounds out the ginger flavor. Cheers!

When we first introduced Harpoon Cider, we spent some time in our tour room mixing it with different beers and sampling the results. The results were varied, but one pairing in particular – Harpoon Cider with Winter Warmer – was a pleasant surprise.

We recreated the combination for years at festivals and at our breweries for years before we were able to combine the seasonal spicing with freshly pressed apples in one bottle, which is exactly what we have done with Harpoon Pumpkin Cider.

Self-Defined Style:

Strength (ABV):

The high hopping of Harpoon IPA is not only noticeable in the nose but especially in the finish. The lingering bitter finish of this beer is not harsh or astringent, but crisp and pronounced. This is created, in part, by dry hopping - a technique that involves adding fresh hops to the conditioning beer to provide a fresh hop aroma.

Best With: 
Grilled seafood, Thai food, spicy chicken.
