Last Friday, my friend Lynn and I were in need of a girls' night out. She sent me a text inviting me to join her for dinner and drinks at Sharrott Winery for a few hours. Following our meal, drinks, and the live show, we concluded the evening with a wine club pickup. We drove our cars to Atco for craft beer at Brotherton Brewery Co., Located at 2208 Atco Ave.www.brothertonbrewing.com.
Owned by five friends, their dream was to open a craft brewery in South Jersey. Their goal: to expand the boundaries of craft beer styles and flavors, crafting some of the finest beers for everyone's enjoyment.
In 1758, European colonists established the first Indian reservation in the US in Shamong Township, NJ. The 3,000-acre reservation was called the Brotherton Reservation and was created for the local Lenape (sometimes called Delaware) community.
Fast-forward to 2015. Brotherton opened with a 15-bbl brew house, 6-bbl fermenters, and a 15-bbl Brite tank. They partnered with Hunterton Brewery and began production and distribution in June 2016 with three core styles of craft beers: 1. Brotherton IPA, 2. Jersey Devil DIPA, and Green Earth Pale Ale. They have expanded to over 60 styles and over 500 individual locations throughout NJ and PA.
Brotherton boasts an impressive selection of craft beers and seltzers, available on tap and for take-home in crowlers, refills, and cans. It's an ideal spot to bring your dog, offering outdoor seating during the warmer seasons, and operates on a BYOF (Bring Your Own Food) basis.
That concludes my fantastic journey for today. What destination awaits me next in the Garden State remains to be seen. Don't forget to like, follow, and share to spread the word! And as always Have fun and travel safe.
