Looks like Cooper Island has the brewery up and running and started serving beer March 20. Nothing on their web site, but they posted the following on facebook.

https://www.facebook.com/Cooper-Island-Beach-Club-320796570227

"We have 3 on the go at the moment:

Larger (Malt: Pilsner, Hops:Seasoned herbal character, grassy/floral).

Ale (Malt: pale & munich, Hops: Seasoned herbal character, grassy/floral).

Bitter (Hops: Crystal & Pale, Hops: Challenger, fruity & spicy, earthy."

Running a brewery in the islands is tough. Last I heard they were working with the brewer at Ft. Christian Brewpub on St. Croix, with a plan to train staff on some of the less technical work.

Cheers, RickG

I saw a review from a beer sales guy from Philly who liked them. Looking forward to it.

Cheers, RickG

Just tried both the amber and lager. Pretty tasty.


Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - beer in hand - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming, "WOO HOO, What a Ride!"

Lager was crisp/light and tasty. Bitter was authentic, but I didn't care for it.

5 bucks a cup.
