You have the option of sitting inside or outside, both are very accommodating. We prefer the outside on a sunny day, nice views and there are heating units if it is cold. The personnel serving the beer are very courteous, helpful, and knowledgeable. You have two brewery choices for beer: Bradley Brew or Tall Oaks- both are excellent. Highly recommended Unicorn Girls or Stablemate if you like Hazy IPAs. They also have stouts, lagers,etc. And for the non drinker, various choices to choose. Tall Oaks is also family friendly and dog friendly. Overall, stop by and enjoy a few hours at this great place.

My girlfriend and I visited for the first time on a Saturday night in June…read more Pros: --In a strip mall so parking is ample and easy. --Very spacious inside with lots of seating. Great for big groups. --The guy serving beers was incredibly talkative and friendly. Talked with us like we were lifelong regulars. --8 beers and 5 seltzers on tap with nice variety. The beer was good, nothing incredible, but it was good. --Flights are only $10. Definitely on the cheaper end of flight prices from our experience at many NJ breweries. Cons: --It was pretty dead for a Saturday night at 7. Only a few other people were there, and in such a big space, the emptiness kills the vibe. --Interesting choice to play men's college lacrosse and the quarterfinal of the Gold Cup instead of the Yankees on their tv's. -- I looked at their Facebook later and saw they were doing an "open playlist Saturday" for which you get to choose a song with a purchase, though this wasn't shared with us when we were there. Overall we enjoyed it and would come back.

Know that Colts Neck is a bubble. If you're simply catering to the dullards going to golf at Hitler's Links next door, you could lay it in a little thicker. Make a nice wink out of it, something like a "I sit in the chair at the hotel and watch" Cherries and Berries sour. If this is really who you are - I will miss your decent lagers but Wild Air has you beat on most styles. I am going to save a can of your 9/11 themed IPA (talk about tasteless, shameless marketing) as an homage to your brainless, jingoistic hubris.

It has a slightly upscale feel while still being comfortable and welcoming. The beers are well-crafted, and you can tell there's a lot of attention to detail in both the flavors and presentation. I tried a few different options, and while most were really enjoyable, a couple didn't stand out as much as I expected. That said, there's still a strong variety, and it's a great place to explore different styles. Overall, it's a great brewery with a solid lineup and an awesome environment. Definitely a place I'd come back to and recommend if you're in the Colts Neck area.

I cross the threshold as one rescued from the elements, and lo, the bitter wind is banished behind me. Within, the air is warm, alive with the low hum of fellowship and glorious tuneage. I approach the bar, The keeper of taps, a stranger to me, introduced himself as "Mr. Appleyard." He spoke plainly and poured generously. I consume one of their ales. It warms the chest and stiffens the spine. Next, a paler brew, bright and hopeful, cuts through winter's gloom like sun on fresh snow. Thus I say unto thee: this brewery is no mere refuge, but a stronghold against winter itself. Enter weary, leave fortified. Should the winds howl again, I know well the light I shall seek.

After a four hour drive down from Rhode Island, my partner and I pulled into Red Bank and made a…read morebeeline for Triumph Brewing Company on Bridge Avenue. Sometimes you just need a cold beer and a bite, and Triumph delivered on both fronts. The space itself sets the tone nicely. Raw wood beams, big glass garage door-style windows flooding the room with light, and a mix of modern and rustic that somehow manages to feel like both at once. Green plants are positioned throughout, around the bar and seating areas, adding just the right amount of warmth throughout. The space is generous too; a large bar anchors the room with plenty of big tables spread throughout. It could clearly handle a crowd. It's the kind of place that makes you want to settle in. The service matched the vibe. Our bartender was attentive from the start, and at one point a second bartender passing by stopped to check if we needed to place an order. When we told him we were already taken care of, he smiled and moved on. Small moment, but it says something about the culture of a place. I started with the Baltic Porter, a solid pint, dark and roasty with that smoothness the style calls for. Good, but it was the second beer that really got my attention. I noticed the bartender working a hand pump and knew right then I'd be having their Pub Ale next. That's the real deal right there; a true cask pour is a rarity, and this one showed why it's worth seeking out. The ale was alive in a way you just don't get from a CO2 tap, soft carbonation with layers of flavor that opened up as it warmed slightly in the glass. It was genuinely awesome. For food we kept it light, a couple of snacks to set ourselves up for the rest of the evening. My partner had the falafel; fresh, nicely seasoned, with real crunch and plenty of accoutrements to keep things interesting. It was exactly the kind of bite that tides you over without weighing you down. I went with a special: Weisswurst. It was juicy and flavorful; served on a nice bun with mustard and the expected trimmings. My only gripe was the portion size, could've used just a bit more sausage. The real surprise was the side of housemade chips, which were exceptional. The kind of thing you find yourself reaching for long after you've finished everything else. Unfortunately, we arrived just as a band was packing up, but according to the schedule posted on the wall, they have live music quite a few days a week. All in all Triumph was the perfect setup for our little mid-winter getaway.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Second time that I visit Triumph Brewery. The first time was mostly drinks and last night was for…read moredinner and drinks and to listen to live music. The place is really pretty and has two floors and a really nice vibe. The music was really great. It was this kind of sexy lounging jazzy type of music. The trumpet player was really good. The band's name was Red123 and I am a fan. We sat and ordered food at the bar and our bartender was great. The other two guys were equally as nice and personable. Now the negative. Although it's considered a brewery, they do not have flights. So keep this in mind when you do visit. I ended up have the Czech dark beer, which was good. It was a large amount as well. My friend had one of the Pilsners and it was pretty good as well. The food for me wasn't that great. I ordered baked oysters with breadcrumbs and bacon on top and it was to be shared with my friend. Unfortunately, the oysters were not cooked thoroughly because they were still kind of slimy and soft and not hot and they did not taste baked. I was OK with it because I do eat raw oysters, but she does not eat raw fish so she didn't have any. I also ordered a Cubano sandwich listed as containing braised pulled pork, Swiss cheese and ham with Bavarian mustard with thinly sliced pickles on the side. I ate half sandwich and it tasted ok. However, for the second half of the sandwich, I decided that I just wanted to eat the insides and not eat the bread. Unfortunately, the pulled pork that was in the sandwich was tasteless and very dry. I do cook roast pork as well as pulled so I know what it's supposed to taste like. I did not notice it at first because the dressing on the bread masked the bland taste of the pork. I did not continue to eat the pork and only ate a piece of the ham and the cheese. I do plan to go back for the vibe and music and if hungry, will try a different dish.

Wild Air makes me think of your Gen X punk uncle, older but still happy bucking trends and sticking it to the man. Lovely corner building seven blocks from the beach. Spacious inside with booths, tables and a long bar, plus an old VW Bus of all things. Lots of open space where they host live music from bands you've never heard of unless you're entrenched in the local music scene. Looking at their set up and their Instagram almost makes it feel like a concert venue that also happens to make beer. Speaking of: there are 14 beers on tap plus one hard seltzer. Most places will go all in on IPAs and pale ales, while this place seems to be the opposite. They only offer two IPAs (a hazy and a double) while the rest of the taplist is made up of pilsners (Italian, west coast, New Zealand, etc.) and lagers (a smoked lager, a Japanese rice lager, etc.). A red ale, a fruited sour ale and a gose with lime round out the list. It's quite an impressive taplist, and everything we tried was good. We live pretty far away and were just visiting Asbury Park for the day, but we would definitely come back if we're ever in the area again.
