37 Best Craft Breweries near Jersey City

“Delicious gluten-free IPA! You guys have raised the bar for the gluten free beer peeps!! 🍺🍺“

“Great brewery tap room. All their beers ready to drink. If I have one criticism is that they don’t have options for the ladies if they don’t drink beer.“

“the beer the place the people“

“I had a great time at Circa the staff was very attentive food was excellent. Thank you for great service.“

“We hosted a birthday dance party in the Tiny Montgomery space and it couldn't have been a more perfect venue! The space itself is awesome and ideal for a party of 50-75 people - intimate but not too squishy. And the staff and bartenders were awesome. They were a pleasure to deal with throughout and everyone had a blast! I would definitely host my next party here again!!“

“I visited Other Half Brewing while I was in Brooklyn and absolutely loved it! The vibe is super chill with a nice mix of locals and visitors. The IPAs are some of the best I’ve ever had, really fresh and full of flavor. The taproom has a cool industrial feel and it’s dog-friendly too, which I loved. Perfect spot to hang out with friends or just relax with a great beer. Definitely one of the highlights of my trip to Brooklyn! 🍺“

“This place is the absolute best.

As a craft beer drinker, Grimm has always been one of my favorite places in the city to grab a beer but what truly took the place to the next level is this past month when my now wife and I decided to hold our wedding at Grimm.

We had such an amazing time and a huge part of that is because of how welcoming and accommodating the staff was to us. They helped us from the early brainstorms of the wedding to the layout of the final event, to even proactively reaching out to us with alternatives for wedding photo locations when it looked like it was about to rain on our wedding day. This doesn't even mention all the times when they were so gracious and patient with answer our many questions about food options, wedding day schedules, and everything in between.

Amazing food. Amazing people. And (obviously) amazing beers!“

“Great beer! Greater staff! Always friendly. Clean fun atmosphere They have great outdoor space for when the weather is nice. Bolero is also a great spot to host a party! We have thrown 2 surprise birthday parties there one inside and one outside. Can’t recommend Bolero enough. It has turned into our regular hang out spot.“

“the dumplings were amazing“

“Great beer selection & ambiance.“

“Always a hospitable and attentive staff. A wonderful and stylish space. And of course - delicious beers brewed on the impressive site. Always something going on there and a great addition to the Staten Island scene.“

“Bke is even more than the best Kombucha ever. It’s a lifestyle and a beautiful community ❤️ I highly recommend!!“

“This place turned out to be our favorite spot whenever time we go to the park. After or before our walk we come here either to eat and drink or just have a drink. The beer selection is interesting and rotates regularly. Eugene always welcomes us in a very friendly way and helps us to choose what to order, he knows our tastes and keeps not forgetting what we tried the last time. Because of Super Chori we try new food from different parts of the world. I love that this place is always crowded, and dog friendly! This is the best neighborhood spot!“

“Came here on a beautiful spring day and had a great date night. My partner loves beer, and he really liked the brews here. I don't drink beer, but they have great cocktails too! It is huge! Lots of seating, so good for big groups. Everyone was really friendly.“

“friendly bar staff and a very relaxing atmosphere“

“My wife and I had recently just gotten married. We had asked NJ Beer Co to host our welcome party for the night before the wedding. We had brought snacks and NJ Beer Co had set up tables for us to use as we gathered. It was an amazing time and the drinks were great! Would recommend NJ Beer Co for any small gatherings, as well as large groups!“

“Nice mood, pretty. Hazy Ipas very good.“

“Excellent beer - friendly staff! Great atmosphere!!“

“This brewery has hands down the best craft brewery brewed beer I have ever had. The "Lite Rail" is drinkable, tasty, has flavor and not trying to be something it's not. It's a beer and it's delicious“

Established in 1988, right when Brooklyn was still more grit than glitter, this place helped kickstart the borough’s craft beer rebellion before artisanal anything became a personality trait.

Walked in expecting a quiet pint, walked out slightly lighter in the wallet and heavier in questionable decisions. The vibe, industrial chic meets controlled chaos, where long communal tables turn strangers into temporary drinking partners with strong opinions about hops.

Signed up for the brewery tour with beer tasting, which is essentially an educational journey that starts with history and ends with you confidently nodding at flavors you cannot actually identify. You learn about the brewing process, ingredients, and craftsmanship, then immediately forget half of it after the second tasting glass.

Their beers are solid, dependable, and just experimental enough to make you pretend you understand “notes of citrus with a rebellious finish.” Truth is, after a couple, everything tastes like confidence.

Fun fact, this brewery played a big role in putting Brooklyn on the global beer map, long before the neighbourhood became a backdrop for influencers and rent anxiety.

Good place to hang, drink, and reflect on life choices. Or forget them entirely, which is probably the point.“

“Amazing, delicious, and original food and environment to sit in. Delicious, and also a huge knowledge of beer and soccer. A true cultural experience, or a chill place to hang out. Don't miss pop up dinners the first Wednesday of the month!“

“good service and good selection. many different drinks(not just beer), didn't try the food though.“

“Very good belgian style beers. Can't go wrong with anything on the draft list“

“We regularly host open mic shows at the Montclair Brewery and wholeheartedly recommend them for the great craft brews, super friendly bartenders and owners, and the overall chill, diverse, and welcoming vibe.“

“nice atmosphere great for groups of friends and family and the food is delicious“

“Great location of a popular brewery. It was a treat to visit this location when I was visiting. I was treated to the same chill vibe you can always expect from other half, with tons of cute doggies. They had their standard menu of beers along with canned cocktails and special cocktails for the non beer drinkers. It wasn’t huge inside but the overflow of guests could find more seating outside. Great view of the river and some interesting people watching at domino park rounded out the afternoon.“

“We went to the tasting room/brewery and had the most amazing time. This was an jaw dropping introduction to Korean traditional sool and I am super excited to tell my friends, co workers, and my family. The flavors of each brew is so beautiful, and the amazing food that came with it made my tongue super happy!! willl be going back again and again, and going to order bottles for my friends!!! thank you Alice for opening my eyes to the wonderful world of korean soooool!!“

“It's nice to know that there is yet another taproom on this side of Queens Boulevard. It's quite easy to get to this location via public transportation.

The beers are the same good ones from their Glendale & Gowanus locations.“

“Lovely female-owned brewery in the heart of Williamsburg - right by McCaren park!

I thoroughly enjoyed all their tastings, but believe their DDH (double dry hopped) Hazy IPA takes the cake in terms of pure voluptuousness and flavor. Service was excellent, and prices are in line with what you'd expect for fresh beer in the area. Interior vibes are welcoming with plenty of sunlight!“

“I stopped by Endless Brewing Company in search of their Kölsch style beer “Construed to waste your time”. The Kölsch was everything it should be crisp with a light yellow hue and served at a perfectly chilled temperature to bring out its best flavor. Best I’ve have had outside of Cologne Germany. Endless Life Brewing in located in the Crown Heights section of Brooklyn and has been set up with its neighborhood in mind. The perfect place to come and sit with friends for a chat or play couple games. Their back patio is softly lit and has picnic tables perfect for night of catching up and maybe grabbing a small bite. I had their homemade mac and cheese and I swear they had my grandmother in back making it.“

“Absolute necessary stop if in the neighborhood of worth a drive/ride if outside 👍“

“Love it !! Ambiance amazing!!wepaaa“

“Greatest Place on Earth :)“

“Beef Nachos are awesome 👍🏻👍🏻“

“Cute, corner bar. Just stopped in for a drink quick and ended up staying for a few and a shared jerk chicken quesadilla with a friend. Margaritas were awesome and the happy hour was so good. Would totally stop back by when I'm in the neighborhood.“

“The soup was amazing i recomendable“
