Hey! We’re back inside for the winter, but are also very much still dealing with a global pandemic and the restrictions that go along with it. We’ve set up a safe, socially distant space in our Taproom for you to get out and enjoy a beer or two and a bite to eat. There are a few changes in service that go with creating said space, so please skip down to the What U Need 2 Know section and read through them before you head down. And as always, thank you for your continued support.

WHAT U NEED 2 KNOW: 

-As of 8/11/2020, per the state’s updated COVID-19 restrictions, guests are now required to order food with their initial alcohol order. Shared items can be ordered as long as it’s enough to sufficiently feed the group. We highly recommend perusing the menu before your arrival to make the most of your time here. 

-Reservations are HIGHLY recommended. Reservations can be made here: cibeer.co/resy starting 4 days prior to the time you’d like to visit. Each reservation is for one 90 minute block of time, and you may only reserve once per person per day.

-We are currently only offering tables to groups of 2 to 6 people at a time and everyone must be 21+. Unfortunately, we can not allow dogs or children (above “walking age”) due to space and service concerns at this time. Service animals are okay.

-If you are running late, please call the Taproom at (781) 951-2029 and press 2 for the Taproom. We will hold the table for a grace period of 15 minutes before offering the reservation to our walk-in waitlist. Please be mindful of your time slot. The strict schedule is to allow for the proper amount of time to sterilize the tables and service areas between parties.

-Please wear a mask upon arrival and any time you are not seated. You may remove your mask once your party is at your table. Please refrain from visiting other tables or wandering around the space unnecessarily.

-The food and drink menus are available digitally via scanning the QR code on your table. We will have single-use paper menus for those of you who are “QR Code challenged”.

-We will be offering table service for both beer and food. No lines or groups are allowed to form anywhere in the Taproom. All servers will be wearing masks. Valid 21+ ID necessary to order beer.

-Outside food is not permitted. Lombardo’s has worked on an awesome, diverse menu for everyone to enjoy, and our licensing only covers the food prepared on-site.

-We’re still operating our Retail Store with both walk-up and curbside pickup options available. To preorder for pickup, head over to http://castleisland2go.com

-Any other questions? Feel free to reach out at contact@castleislandbeer.com.

Also! We think it’s important to celebrate your roots, and, for us, that’s homebrewing. If you’re a member of the American Homebrewers Association, then please enjoy 10% off merch when you visit our taproom. All you need is to flash your membership card to reap the rewards!

The Scoop on Growlers

UPDATE: We have kicked off a “frequent filler” growler exchange program to safely allow you to reduce, reuse, and refill! Please read the following FAQs to find out how to participate and save some moolah on your next order.

Why a Growler Exchange? 

Customers have been wondering what to do with their empty growlers. Glass growlers are recyclable but having the ability to reuse and refill growlers is a great sustainable and zero-waste option.

Which growlers are being filled?

We will only be filling our branded growlers. When you order a growler we will fill a brewery-cleaned (when available) or new growler.

What is a Growler Exchange? 

Reduce, Reuse, Refill! Bring back a clean, Castle Island Brewing Company branded growler. For every clean growler brought back to the brewery you will receive a stamp on your growler exchange card. After collecting five stamps you will receive $10 off your next purchase. All exchanged growlers will be put in isolation then cleaned prior to going into service.

How are the growlers being cleaned?

All returned growlers will be stored for a minimum of seven days in a secure location outside of brewery and retail operations. After seven days of isolation the growlers will be cleaned and rinsed prior to being put into service.

Why put the growlers in isolation for seven days? 

The virus that causes COVID-19 has not been shown to survive on surfaces longer than seven days. This provides an extra layer of protection for our staff as well as customers above and beyond the cleaning.

What’s the procedure for returning a growler? 
Bring all growler exchanges to the takeout window to be placed in the designated isolation chamber.

Once my card is filled, how do I redeem the $10 off?
Once you have five stamps you will get a $10 gift card to use online or next time you come visit the take-out window. If you want to use it the same day at the take-out window, we will apply the $10 at the register.

Can the $10 off be applied to the online order I’m picking up while returning my growler?
No, if you receive the $10 credit once you return 5 growlers and it is good for your next purchase. If you want to use it same day, we recommend ordering at the take-out window.

Can I apply the $10 credit to a pre-order on castleisland2go.com?
Yes, the credit will come in the form a gift card which can be used towards your online purchases.

For the health and safety of our team and the ever-awesome you, tours are currently not being offered. Once things cool off and we have a coronavirus vaccine, we’d love to show you what we’ve done with the place.
