Harpoon Brewery is an American microbrewery, with plants in Boston, Massachusetts and Windsor, Vermont. Founded in 1987, the brewery was the first company to obtain a permit to manufacture and sell alcohol in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Harpoon has played an important part in the rebirth of the microbrewery system in the United States.

The brewery is best known for its Harpoon India Pale Ale. It also brews four other year-round beers, including UFO Hefeweizen, the original Harpoon Ale, the award-winning Munich Dark and UFO Raspberry Hefeweizen, its latest creation. Harpoon also produces several non-alcoholic sodas, including root beer, orange and cream, and cream soda. It also brews a number of seasonal beers, such as an Octoberfest lager and Hibernian Ale, a beer made in the style of an Irish red for St. Patrick's Day.
