Hog Island Beer Co. - 28 West Road, Orleans

Naukabout Brewery - 13 Lake Avenue, Mashpee
Tucked into the woods, this brewery includes a rotating cast of food trucks, a terraced patio and a rustic taproom where visitors can taste their small-batch, hop-forward beers. Live music, backyard games and food trucks set a family-friendly vibe; they even offer a house-made root beer for the kids. Many events are open to the public but some are ticketed perfect for date nights or a night out with friends.
