What's Happening in NJ? Releases, News, Gatherings

[sobeleg]

Yeah I'm hoping to stock up on a bunch of cans for my wedding in the middle of October. Gotta give people an option over the standard wedding fare.

I'm assuming your venue allows for outside beers to be served? At my wedding last summer, our venue had to purchase any booze served via distro, and Carton was able to accommodate and send a few cases of Boat direct to the venue.

Sounds lovely

hnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnng!

i haven't been to carton in a while time to change that..

FYI & FWIW - Brotheron's IPA... just the base one... not the pale ale or the double IPA... it has similarities to Tree House Julius... just wanted to throw it out there. Get your hands on some when possible... i don't think you are going to go "holy ****, this is the second coming of Jesus Christ our lord and savior", but i do think you'll be a bit thrown back that some new kid on the block put out something so tasty

ForkAndSpoonOperator send the word to you know who that I approve of this message.. also that i'd like some cans : )

Conclave beer at an event a mere half hour from where I live (as opposed to over an hour)? See you there/anybody need a ride?

I'm sure we've got a few Hoboken people as well as commuters here. Hope everyone is alright

 

[PubGrubTrub]

I didn't typically commute through Hoboken when I was using the train regularly but I've been through there a few times - that's a nightmare scenario and I just hope everybody is okay. Scary, scary stuff.

 

[gregkoko]

I know axeman9182 commutes through Hoboken every day. Was relieved to see him make a FB post this morning.

 

[axeman91821]

Yeah, it happened probably 10-15 minutes before my train came in, looked really bad. Also pretty much in the worst spot as far as there being a ton of foot traffic there on the way to the Path station.

 

[Rock31]

Hope everyone is safe, friends, family and all included. Pictures look terrible, I am sure it is much worse though in person.

Horrible situation.

Last night I went to the nj tap takeover at the Tap Room. Kane's Sunday Brunch on tap was super.

 

[Keyes881]

Anything open today? Breweries need to be open when schools are closed to give big kids something to do.

 

[PubGrubTrub]

I had my first try of the Brotherton Jersey Devil DIPA last night. Highly enjoyable. Thought it was outstanding.

 

[axeman91821]

Yeah, I had it a little more than a week ago and was definitely impressed.

 

[deadweights]

Anyone been to Jughandle in Tinton Falls? I have to say their beer is pretty good. And it's a nice looking place inside.

 

[Newmoneyloons]

My fridge is looking empty and kane has some fresh head high. I am going around opening time. Has anyone tried the hop labs motueka?

 

[wittyname1]

Has anyone tried the hop labs motueka?

Yeah, loved it. Grabbed a couple to bring back home.

 

[Futurepoop]

Yeah, loved it. Grabbed a couple to bring back home.

Same -- loved it too. Even moreso than the Galaxy Head High drinking them side by side.

That moment when you're in Cranford, go into The Cellar at the Cranford Hotel, and run into CoinStarChange. I was all like

Just a small moment to reflect how I love the NJ Beer Scene

I basically hit the jackpot yesterday. First Newmoneyloons visits me at Kane and then I see darehulk112

Next time I'll have to stay in the cellar to hang, but I was hangry... those Hotel chicken fingers with their honey mustard is sososososo good.

I had a hungry g.f. waiting for me at home, so I understand that dilemma. She still appreciate cold quesadillias action so I consider it a victory

 

[MikeJones]

Anybody heading up to the Legends NJCB takeover tonight? Can't make it so I figured I'd just live vicariously through the rest of you.

The owner of Climax Brewing had a complete meltdown on Troon Brewing's Facebook post. It's quite the comical read.

that guy is a duffel-bag'o'turds... link?

 

[caninhand]

link?

 

[caninhand]

tl:dr He told the owner of Troon to brew "clear beers" and the hazy IPAs are an "abomination to brewing". Then went off about how he has 30+ years experience. Called some people the "c" word. Proclaimed Lagunitas and Sam Adams as the best IPA brewers in the world. Good times.

 

[schillman]

So, I saw on facebook that ship bottom brewery is canning their beer soon and one of the brands is "Double Overhead IPA". Really!? How do you not know that there is a beer out there with the same name and produced 50 miles north, no less?

I remember when he put an infected beer on tap at a NJ tap takeover and claimed it as his intentionally sour beer and then went on to criticize batch 1 of Monkey saying that it wasn't sour enough to be a "sour"... and that I should drink his beer instead.

Heard some claims of racism as well but whatever... old and butt-hurt will be old and butt-hurt

that thread made my day....wow.

 

[seedavid]

LOL @ Climax. Hoffman Helles is one of the single worst beers I've ever tasted in my life.
