Nice enough sparse brewery outfit in an industrial area. Clean and airy. Good beers. Accommodating enough. Good sampler prices.

Strip mall location, very close to the Garden State exit, so an easy stop off if you are headed somewhere else. Decent setup with a good size bar for ordering and a few communal tables. Flights and full pours available plus crowlers and some limited cans to go. Beers are decent, sometimes hit or miss, but solid overall. Good use of their namesake turning method to demonstrate the brewing process on the wall, as someone who's lived in this state for about a decade now, I'm still not quite sure why they are necessary, but it makes for a good process illustration.

Located in a strip mall, brewery has a relatively small seating area and 16 taps. Friendly counter staff, lots of suggestions. Beer tasted good. No food.

Strip mall brewery. Beers are okay. They crowler. Ample parking. Closest brewery to Kane in NJ. Flights of four are available. They had eight offerings when I was there.

In a strip mall and a bit hard to see from the road I thought my GPS was wrong at first. I thought walking up to it that a strip mall spot might not be that great but I realized that it pretty much means it’s a lot easier to grab food than any brewery I have been to. Inside is fairly big for a tasting room. Most local breweries the tasting room and brewery are separate but here it’s one and the same. This was great as they have a wall to lean one and you can drink while they brew. Brewers were more than friendly and talked and answered any questions while working. A good crowd was presant for a just opened brewery. Beers nice and solid now I think they will only get better with a bit of history under their belts.

Nice stop. Inside a strip mall, but space is pretty spacious inside. Friendly service, although the girl that rang me up thought my one year old daughter (dressed in teal flower sundress) was a boy. Decent selection of beers on tap, which were all average at best. I would definitely go again being that it’s only 30 min from my house. Hoping the beers get better as the brewery progresses.

Nice spot. Service is very friendly. Flights are really cheap. Beer is solid and covers a lot of simple and accessible styles. This place would be an especially great resource for someone just getting into craft beer to learn about new styles too. Having a crowler machine is a huge plus too.

I just returned from the Jughandle Brewing opening day. This is a very nice strip mall brewery with lots of room and all of the equipment visible. They opened with 6 beers...generically called...Hefeweizen, Saison, English Bitter, IPA, RyePA, and Stout. I thought all of them were very good for an opening day. I especially found the RyePA to be notable followed by the IPA...but there were really no weak offerings. The staff here (family...including 5 daughters helping out...one of the family told me).was great...all had smiles...were very helpful...and talkative. Check out the American flag made out of fire hoses...impressive. I think Jughandle will do well. The have a great location...very nice people...and given beers tend to get better over the 6-12 months following an opening (assuming they were at least decent to start...and these are)...they should do well. It certainly doesn’t hurt that they are about 10 mins away from Kane...so they will get lots of people visiting both locations on a single trip. Check them out when in the area.
