My wife and I attended a wedding celebration event here and it was a great time. The whole premises is really clean and it opens to the outside for a nice breeze. The beers were tasty and overall everyone had a great time.

Big warehouse/production facility and hip bar mashup vibes here. Excellent beer. Super close to NYC and right in the shadow of routes 21 and 3 and the Passaic River. Parking out front and Holy Grail Burgers pop up tent to beat those pernicious NJ anti-food brewery laws. Dog friendly. Giant coolers stocked with to-go cans. This place has it all. My girlfriend and I visited on a Sunday afternoon for the first time recently. We sat at the bar and tried several of the beers. 10 beers on tap plus a few additional can pours, and a very impressive amount of variety in the offerings. We especially loved the Updraft (Mai Bock) and BEIRA (strong scotch ale). We love dogs and there were several in the brewery, including one medium sized dog comically perched on the lap of the woman next to us at the bar. Be advised if dogs aren't your thing. We live an hour and a half away and would be here all the time if we lived closer. We've been to a lot of NJ breweries over the years and this is definitely one of the better breweries in the state, in our humble opinion.

The beer was really good. I tried a hazy ipa and some sour-y wheat beer. I received beer service almost immediately upon arrival regardless of its being a full house. The atmosphere was hip, lively and cheerful. The merch was super cool. I Definitely want to go back one day.

Another very nice NJ craft brewery in a nice industrial space with high ceilings and lots of fresh air I never heard of Rutt's before, but evidently it is a NJ landmark for hot dog lovers. I mention because it is across the street and giant and dilapidated! Group next to us brought in their hot dogs and fries. If you see Rutt's, you are near Ghost Hawk. Next door is a distillery. And nearby is entrance to 3 West. I liked that the brewery offered a variety of glass sizes to try their beers. I thought the best was Apex Predator, a citrusy IPA. Ravendark was ok, but I prefer stouts and porters with a bit more coffee taste. The two women tenders kept everyone happy and the tables clean. We visited on a cold and rainy April afternoon and found the place convivial. Cheers.

Great local breweries with a wonderful selection. Really like the beers here and you don't feel overloaded with options. Everything is brewed in house, which is neat. They have live bands some night and food trucks. You can also bring your own food. Really like it here - will be back! Already grabbed a few beers to-go!

I love this brewery. In truth I am hopelessly in love with their servings of Beira, which is a Strong Scotch Ale. And as they'll tell you it isn't Scotch, it is an Ale done in a Scottish style. Yeah...cool. They have a really cool bar tasting room setup that opens in the late afternoon with a comfortable atmosphere. I have not tried all of their offerings because I keep coming back for their Beira. They have options to bar 4 pack cans that are 16oz. Really, it's more of an 8 pack because you'd likely pour this over a couple Scotch Ale snifter glasses. I look forward to returning and trying more of their craft beer.

Weather started getting warmer so we decided to try this brewery spot I've been eyeing for a while. The bartenders were great in helping us choose brews based on our preference and we tried the tasting bar that includes 4 tastings. There were no seating outside but you could sit near the huge open entrance otherwise there are plenty of spots further into the brewery or at the bar. I definitely loved the BEIRA // STRONG SCOTCH ALE. I also (surprisingly) loved the BELGIAN TRIPEL which has notes of Bananas! I will be back
