Beer Enthusiasts, Not Snobs

Beer Enthusiasts, Not Snobs

Wh0 We Are...

Who?

We're Andrew and Melissa.

We met in college and discovered our love for craft beer and different breweries shortly after that. Andrew is from upstate NY and Melissa is from Connecticut but now we both live in the beautiful state of New Jersey and love to explore new places and try new beers together

What

We like beer. We like to travel.

So we like to travel and drink beer. Pretty simple. Sometimes we make beer or other things too.

Why?

Why not?

But really, this is just a fancy way for Andrew to remember where we’ve been.

If you have any questions, feel free to shoot us an email or contact us on Instagram. Thanks for stopping by!

Headed up to Connecticut to cheer on my Bobcats as they take on Ohio State for NCAA hockey! Fantastic pregame at @brewportct with delicious pizza and lots of beer!

Happy 3rd anniversary @ashtonbrewing! Had to stop by for some great music and this fantastic barrel aged flight! And for those looking something a little lighter, try the "Beer for a Sushi Restaurant" 🍣🍣🍣 rice lager or Pure Obsidian cold black IPA. Festivities continue tonight and tomorrow with more live music! Cheers to great beer and many more years!

🚨 New beer alert 🚨 We teamed up with @fortnonsensebrewing for another collab and are bringing you two brand new beers! In tribute to the founding member of @theblackandwhitecatcrew Oreo, we brewed Regular Generic Cream-Filled Cookie Stout and a Golden Generic Cream-Filled Cookie Stout. Both stouts were brewed with a generous helping of Oreos (regular and golden respectively) and then dry-hopped with even more Oreos for that extra cream-filled cookie flavor! And because we are all such animal lovers, a portion of proceeds from sales of both beers will go to support @ehrdogs! Hope to see you this weekend at the Fort to pick up some cans to go or try both on tap starting today at 4pm!

Step aside Fat Amy, @titosburritos has a new JUMBO taco on the menu! 🌮 The "Fat Bastard" is a 12" crispy tortilla stuffed with ground beef, hand-cut fries, Tito's cheeses, grilled peppers & onions and sour cream! 🍖🍟🫑🧀🧅 The behemoth of a taco was delicious, once you figure out how to start eating it 🤦‍♀️
.
It also fed the two of us 🤣 we had to get a side of their lollipop S'mores because reasons 🤤 🍭🍫 Tito's has 5 locations in NJ: Summit, Morristown, Ridgewood, South Orange and Tenafly.
.
The Fat Bastard also pairs perfectly with a can of @stonebrewing Arrogant Bastard 🍻.

Prohibition ended in 1933. In 2023, NJ breweries are still subject to arbitrary and unfair laws that our nanny state created to continually punish alcohol manufacturing while protecting the restaurant and bar industry.
.
In New Jersey, you have to take an "educational tour" before you can even drink in the brewery.
.
NJ breweries can't have more than two 65-in televisions.
.
NJ breweries cannot serve "food of substantial value", nor can they coordinate with food trucks. NJ breweries can only host 25 "events" a year. Yes, trivia is an event. NJ breweries are even limited to how many off-site events they're allowed to partake in, and they have to pay a fee to NJ to do it.
.
NJ Breweries cannot offer free drinks or hold happy hours. And right now there is only one brewery in the state that is allowed to serve you coffee!
.
@njgov and @govmurphy have talked a big talk about changing our states antiquated liquor laws, but that's all they have done.
.
A portion of the proceeds from these Brew Jersey beers contribute to the New Jersey Brewers Guild, which are working to end these nonsense rules.

Happy Whipp Wednesday! 🍻 My new friend Whipp works at @fontaflorabrew as their head bouncer and residential mouser 🚫🐭 you can tell he takes his job very seriously, just look at his little scorn 😾
.
When you get the chance to visit Asheville, NC be sure to head out to Fonta Flora Brewery in Nebo. They make an impressive array of wild ales, heavy and flavorful imperial stouts, and smooth, juicy IPAs. If you're a fan of beets, you must try this "Beets Rhymes and Life" saison 😍

How is your team doing this season? We had another tough loss last night for the @njdevils 😭 but with 41 wins this season, a round of beers at @reddsbiergarten with @drinkninjersey and a few cans of @tomsriverbeer Stick Toss, I guess we can't complain too much 😈🏒😂🍻

Day two in Asheville brought a lot more delicious beer! After a great morning at @biscuitheadavl and @biltmoreestate, we enjoyed some fantastic beer at @sweetencreekbrewing, @highlandbrewing, @neworiginbrewing, @brouwerijcursuskeme, @whitelabsbrewingcoavl and @wickedweedfunkatorium despite all the rain. Thank you all who gave us great recommendations! Here's hoping tomorrow we get some good weather 🤞

After our Morris county brewery tour last week, @902brewing suggested a Jersey City version. Up to the challenge, we visited 902 for some rooftop views and brews (loved the I Bomb Atomically stout and Let the Wheat Drop). We then made our way over to @departedsoles for our favorite skateboard flight featuring Central Jersey Does Not Exist and S'mo 'n Joe. And the finished up at @corgispirits with some fun cocktails like this Ramos Gin Fizz. What are you drinking this Sunday funday?
