Cheers! Sunday is National Beer Day, and we’re raising our glass to one of the world’s most beloved beverages. In honor of this special occasion and in true New Jersey fashion, it’s only fitting that we make this day about us. There are a plethora of breweries, bars and restaurants in all corners of the Garden State, with beer selections that are sure to satisfy even the pickiest of beer snobs. So, if you’d like to celebrate the day with your favorite beer, or even try a new variety, stop by Mount Holly’s own micro-breweries!
In the Burlington County suburb of Mount Holly, you can find three breweries within the town’s limits. Opened in 2013, Village Idiot Brewing Company is the town’s oldest, known for its quirky names and flavors like Belgian ale Mad Idiot and fruit beer Monkey Breath Banana Bread. Opened in 2014, Spellbound Brewing Company is known for core brands like Hypnotic Hops IPA, Mesmerizing Porter and Triple Charmed Belgian Cherry Triple.
Stratosphere Brewing Company is Mount Holly’s newest addition. The five-barrel brewery offers everything from pilsners, IPAs, ales and stouts. It even offers the option to mix any beer half-and-half with lemonade to make a shandy. You can also stop by Dempster’s Sports Pub & Restaurant, The Local Eatery and Pub, as well as Local Lounge for more beer options.
