Craft Beer Meets Culinary Creativity
Border Brewery first opened its doors in Salem with a mission to bring small-batch, high-quality craft beer to the local community. With an ever-changing tap list featuring everything from crisp lagers to bold IPAs and rich stouts, the brewery quickly became a go-to spot for locals and out-of-towners alike seeking authentic flavor and a relaxed atmosphere.
Border Brewery is now expanding its menu to match the personality of its beers — creative, flavorful, and made with care. Each pizza starts with hand-tossed dough made from scratch, modeled after traditional Neapolitan-style crusts known for their light, chewy texture and perfectly blistered edges. The dough is allowed to ferment for optimal flavor before being baked in a high-temperature stone oven, creating a balance of crispness and airy softness that sets Border's pizza apart from anything else in town.
Redefining Pizza Night
While the crust honors classic Italian roots, the toppings are where Border Brewery's innovation truly shines. For instance, let's talk about the Brisket Pizza, an instant favorite — slow-smoked beef brisket meets tangy BBQ sauce and melted mozzarella, creating a smoky, savory bite that pairs beautifully with the brewery's amber ales.
The Jerk Chicken Pizza brings a tropical kick, featuring marinated jerk chicken, caramelized onions, roasted red peppers, and a house-made mango drizzle that balances spice and sweetness in every slice. And for those craving something bold and fun, the Taco Pizza is a must-try, with all the flavors of a classic taco night — seasoned beef, cheddar and mozzarella, shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, and chipotle crema, and, of course, served on their signature fresh, bubbling crust.
Border Brewery also offers classic and build-your-own options, allowing guests to craft their own flavor experience. Gluten-free crusts and vegetarian-friendly toppings ensure everyone can join in on pizza night without compromise.
Beer and Pizza: The Perfect Pair
Each pizza is designed with Border's beer lineup in mind. From their crisp pale ales that complement the heat of jerk seasoning to malty brown ales that enhance the richness of smoked brisket, every pint has a perfect pizza partner. The brewery also frequently hosts food-and-beer pairing nights, live music, and community events, making it a hub for local connection and good times.
"We wanted our menu to reflect what Border Brewery has always stood for: creativity, community, and great flavor," said Joe Ruotolo, owner of Border Brewery. "Our pizzas are cooked with the same attention to detail as our beers. Every ingredient, every topping, every step of the process matters."
