An early taste of summer, Straight from your favorite bottle!!!!

Well ladies and gentlemen, although you thought it would never come, summer is right around the corner. And just like the seasons, the brews of the Cricket Hill Brewing company are changing as well. So out with the Paymasters Porter, and in with the Jersey Summer Belgian Ale!!! A breakfast ale as fresh and full with flavor as a day down by the shore, fermented with belgian ale yeast, this beer has slightly tangy, and fruity taste. Pairs as well with bacon and eggs as it does with a back yard barbecue, and a delicious accompanyment to your morning coffee and a wonderfully refreshing alternative to your watery yellow lawnmower beer.

For the first time ever The Jersey Summer we'll be sold in bottles through our distibutors Regal and Shore Point, providing we can get through some labeling issues we've been having as of late. But either way we hope to see our loyal drinkers and everyone else at our brewery and at the shore all summer. HAVE A GREAT SUMMER, and as always SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL BREWERY!!!!!!!!!!!

The Freshest IPA in the WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

IPA HOPNOTIC

No mere beverage could satisfy the thirst of the courageous and gallant soldiers who stood guard over the colonies of the British Empire. Their thirst could only be quenched by a full-bodied hearty Ale; an Ale balanced with rich flavorful hops. We are proud to offer our interpretation of this English style India Pale Ale for those who long for the time when once your duty was complete, the taste of a fine Ale was reward enough for a job well done.

The Freshest Ale in the WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!

AMERICAN ALE

Our American Ale is a favorite everywhere - an amber ale with a wonderful balance of caramel sweetness and hop flavor. The aroma has a slight note of citrus and rock candy. There is not an imported Ale on the market that tastes this fresh!

The Freshest Lager in the WORLD!!!!!

EAST COAST LAGER

The East Coast Lager is an easy drinking “golden” lager with a wonderful balance of crisp malt flavors and flowery hop finish. Built specifically with very low bitter aftertaste, the aroma is as clean as the taste. A difficult beer to brew because of the gentleness… this beer is magnificent!
