Handcrafted Excellence Since 1992

This award-winning restaurant and brewery was built on the site where, in their heyday, Kennebunk’s historic 19th century shipyards built schooners known throughout the world for their grace and speed. Federal Jack’s was named for one of the most famous ships built on this site in 1908.

The Shipyard Connection

What started as Kennebunkport Brewing Company at Federal Jack's grew into the renowned Shipyard Brewing Company in Portland. Our success story began right here with a commitment to exceptional craft beer.
