In 1986, Harpoon set out to do something different. From brewing bold, flavorful beer in Boston to helping shape the craft beer movement in New England, the journey has been defined by a series of firsts—first brews, first festivals, first pints shared among friends, and countless unforgettable memories along the way.
To celebrate Harpoon Brewery’s 40th Anniversary, we’re inviting beer lovers to raise a glass to the beer that changed everything: Harpoon IPA.
Earn the 40 Years of Firsts badge by checking in a Harpoon IPA on Untappd anytime between June 10, 2026 and December 31, 2026. Whether it’s your first Harpoon IPA or your hundredth, every check-in is a toast to four decades of innovation, community, and a passion for great beer.
Here’s to the next first, the next adventure, and the next 40 years. Cheers!
Badge Criteria: Check in one (1) Harpoon IPA between June 12, 2026 and December 31, 2026.
