How has COVID changed your life? I’m sure you’ve thought about or even been asked this question directly. In this article, we peek into Shore Craft Beer COVID creativity. In other words, what and how are breweries keeping their restaurant and brewery patrons safe so they can eat out and drink in a safe environment?

Fish Tales, Ocean City, MD

While Fish Tales isn’t a Shore Craft Brewery, I’d be remiss if I didn’t at least mention what they did. They get an honorable mention for innovation on this one, folks. Did you hear what they did over the summer? No? Well, they used inner tubes over the summer to make sure that people were properly socially distanced. No lie!
