Shipyard Brewing

Shipyard Brewing Company is a family-owned brewery based in Portland, Maine, with over 25 years of tradition and innovation. Founded by Fred Forsley and master brewer Alan Pugsley, it began with the opening of Federal Jack’s Restaurant & Brew Pub in 1992 in Kennebunkport, coinciding with the rise of America’s craft beer industry. As demand grew, they established Shipyard Brewing Company in Portland just two years later. Since brewing their first beer, the brewery has focused on discovery and aims to strengthen ties with family, friends, and the community while giving back through their mission.
