TAP HOUSE GRILLE

It has been quite some time since we featured a beer bar on I Drink Good Beer. With the holidays being so busy it is tough for us to get out there and find new places, but now that things are slowing down we have rejoined the fray. One bar that is standing apart from the competition these days is Tap House Grille in Wayne, NJ. With 24 taps of rotating beer and an extensive bottle list, it is becoming a favorite destination for craft beer drinkers around New Jersey.  Continue reading “TAP HOUSE GRILLE”

ADAM’S BEER GARDEN


Hidden off the beaten path – yet next to one of the busiest interstates in the country – lies a hidden secret where the beer flows and the music plays on. Adam’s Beer Garden In Rockaway, New Jersey, has been serving up brews for a while and boasts quite the selection of craft beer within its twenty six draft lines. With help from the local distributors, Adam’s has kept the likes of Yards, Long Trail, Smuttynose, and Flying Dog flowing. Continue reading “ADAM’S BEER GARDEN”

FARM HOUSE TAP & GRILL


Since I have been on the run the past two weeks for my other outlet, Jersey Streets, I have not had the time to crank out much fresh content. Luckily for me, we just took a nice three day trip to the Lake Champlain region of New York. Although we didn’t come across Champ, we did take a short ferry ride over the massive body of water to experience some local beer culture in Burlington, Vermont. Burlington’s craft beer claim to fame is Magic Hat Brewery, but we didn’t go to visit the known; we were there for the unknown. Array

TWIN LIGHT TAP HOUSE

Other than our trip to Carton Brewing, I can honestly say I have never been to the Sandy Hook area of the Jersey Shore. I feel like I have been missing out. Sandy Hook and the Highlands share an awesome culture with lots of local historical attractions and fine cuisine. Once a haven for bootleggers during Prohibition, the region is now littered with an array of bar choices from swank seafood restaurants to your good old local watering hole. There is one place, however, that stands out from the others – and that place is Twin Light Tap House. Opened in May of 2010, owner Mark Danziesen has been introducing beer drinkers of the area to the craft beer industry, offering draft and bottle selections from America’s finest breweries.

CHURCHKEY

While only in operation since 2009, it’s safe to say that Churchkey is already legendary among beer drinkers who know where to go while in Washington DC to drink good beer. It’s hard to say enough about how staggeringly great the beer selection in this place is, but if you don’t want to hear excessive gushing and only have enough time to read another sentence, make it this one: Churchkey has a 30-page bottle list (550 different beers) and 55 taps (5 of which tap into casks).
