Harpoon Brewery is a Boston-based craft brewery founded in 1986 by Rich Doyle and Dan Kenary to share high-quality beer and the experience of brewing together. To meet growing demand, the company added a second brewery in Windsor, Vermont, in 2000. In 2014 Harpoon transitioned to an employee-owned structure, aligning governance with a collaborative approach to brewing and operations. It operates in the food and beverage services industry, producing beer for consumers who value straightforward, quality drinking experiences.

Based in Boston, the company has a sizable workforce and follows a small set of guiding principles that emphasize mutual respect, ownership spirit, and a commitment to making beer to be enjoyed with others. In 2026 Harpoon launched a limited edition You Can't Beat Boston IPA, tied to a local city initiative, reflecting ongoing product development and community engagement. The organization also remains active in local events, such as its annual Harpoon 5-Miler in Boston.
