There’s a new craft brewery in the U.S. Virgin Islands.

The Leatherback Brewery Company has opened its doors in St Croix, offering a range of craft beverages brewed with local ingredients.

The brewery’s flagship beers include the Leatherback Lager and the Leatherback IPA, both of which are already on offer (on tap) in local bars and restaurants in St Croix.

The brewery offers tours and tastings, offering the chance to try tap beers like Island Life, Sweet Bottom Ale and Reef Life — and to take home a souvenir.

Leatherback Brewing Company is set in the William Roebuck Industrial Park, open from 11 AM to 7 PM seven days a week.
