Readington Brewery & Hop Farm bursts onto the New Jersey scene (a place where hops grow like wild ambition). From a 25‑acre plot where the crops are tended with the seriousness of a master chef, craft brewing meets farm‑fresh tradition, delivering an award‑winning lineup that refuses to be ordinary.
From the razor‑clean Jagr Lager to the unapologetically bold Hop Bomber Hazy DIPA, every pour carries the imprint of local terroir. The brewery also rolls out a German‑style roster, a rotating tap of ciders and kombucha, and enough variety to keep even the most indecisive palate occupied.
Beyond the glass, the site feels like a well‑kept secret party: live music drifts over a playground where kids can burn off the sugar rush, food trucks line up beside picnic tables that even welcome dogs, and a pair of amiable goats wander the grounds. A small outdoor play area invites families to linger while the brewmasters demonstrate how each hop is hand‑picked, turning the farm into a living gallery. Private events are treated as works of art, with the hop fields themselves forming a living backdrop.
Readington Brewery receives praise for its friendly staff, family-friendly atmosphere, and diverse selection of beers, including German-style options and unique offerings like kombucha and cider. The outdoor area is also highly recommended.
