Stopped in for a beer before heading back to my hotel. There was a trivia game night going on, so I grabbed a seat at the bar. I ended up having a flight and I sampled a kolsch, lager, spruce run ale, and a stout. All were fine, but none made me feel like I needed to have another. Service was friendly enough. I'd definitely stop in if I'm in Morristown again, especially since it's across the street from my office.
I enjoy trying new breweries and their crafted concoctions, and I love the Morristown area, but I only learned about Glenbrook Brewery because I saw that one of my favorite local musicians was playing there each month. I finally made it to see him and to check the place out on a recent weekend. The brewery was in the heart of the city, only a short walk from the town square. There was no parking lot, but we were able to get a close street spot rather easily. There were 3 large tables outside the main entrance. The brewery beyond it looked rather small but was actually spacious with loads of picnic tables, high-tops, bar space, and a lofted party room. We got seats at the bar and ordered tasting flights, which included 4 brews of choice, each in 5-ounce glasses. I sampled the following: 1.) Tempe Wick Farmhouse Sour Mango Agave - slightly sour, tart, and fruity with notes of mango and apple 2.) Ford Mansion Basement Barrel Porter - offering chocolate and cherry notes, high ABV but not too heavy or filling 3.) St. Patrick's Irish Red Ale - smooth and easy to drink, a bit watery, rather light 4.) Soiree Rose Hard Seltzer - tasted like fermented red grapes and I did not enjoy it I also had a sip of the Green Mountain Boys Spruce Run Ale, which felt more like a winter brew than a spring one. It was soothing, rustic, and woodsy. Lastly, I sampled the Morristown Hazy IPA, which was a rather standard version of a hazy. Of these, the sour was by far my favorite, with the others being decently enjoyable as well. I was thrilled to see that I could order another 5-ounce glass of my beer of choice without having to get a full pint, so I got an additional small pour of the sour favorite. The bar staff was very friendly and enjoyable to speak with. The brewery did not have food beyond small packaged snacks, but did allow folks to bring their own treats. In fact, there were several parties happening, each displaying outside food. Because there were so many groups, there were also a good number of children and dogs around the brewery, though most were well-behaved. The bar also had board games to keep the young (and older) ones entertained. Once the music got started, we were disappointed in the acoustics of the space. We could barely hear the musician's tunes or lyrics over the crowd, and that had been our main reason for driving out to the venue. Our take was that if they were going to have live music, the volume should be turned up to account for the noise in the room. Overall, Glenbrook Brewery provided a nice experience, but a few details, like a way to minimize the noise, could have improved our visit.
If you're in Morristown NJ, looking for something to do, stop in Glenbrook Brewery and try one of their beers. Great atmosphere, well lit and ample seating. They have a room upstairs for private parties. You will need to bring in your own food, plenty of establishments around to choose from. Service was good, but not sure on the parking, parked next door in the tire place after hours. CIAO FOR NOW.
Dreadful. That's all you need to know. The beer, the ambiance, the kids running wild and almost getting attacked by a dog and no employees coming to diffuse the situation. Just an overall bad experience. I left 2 out of the 4 flight options behind as they were just not good. The barrel aged beer was extremely disappointing.
Stopped in for a quick beer to try out while in the area. It was packed as we didn't realize it was trivia night. It was funny watching the teams compete and how easy some things were and how difficult some were. Definitely a great spot to meet up with friends. They only had one ipa on draft so we definitely want to come back and try more!
First off, what a great brewery overall. We walked in on Sunday to grab a beer for me and a sour for my girlfriend. The bartender was welcoming and friendly. The place itself was open and beautiful and everything a brewery should be. It also has a nice outside sitting area with plenty of picnic tables upon entering into the brewery. The beer was great, the service was excellent, and the establishment itself was superb. I'll see you the next time I am in town and thanks for the beer koozie my brother. Enjoy :D
A HUMONGOUS shout out to the lady who let us have a flight on one of their busiest days!!! Hugs, kisses, and blessings to her for the patience she had with us!! We came for Morristown's St Patrick's Day Parade and the place was busy but lucky for us, we came early enough and got a prime table. There was a lot of seating and I loved the long picnic benches artfully crafted with huge slabs of wood. The fixed seats were a little far from the table but I have a big belly so it worked. For my flight, I got the Morristown Hazy IPA, the Spill The Tea Iced Tea Lemonade, the St. Patrick's Irish Red Ale, and the Hard Winter Raspberry Wheat Beer. All were good except the Hazy but my favorite was the Lemonade. I coulda drank that all day!!!
My friend and I had a nice evening out at Glenbrook Brewery. We met up at the brewery on a Thursday night around 8pm. It was not crowded at all. I appreciate that Glenbrook is open later because many breweries were closing around 8/9, so Glenbrook is a nice option for a later weekday evening out to grab a beer or two. First off, every review that says it is hard to find, is correct. Even knowing this info, I still had a hard time finding it. It is tucked away next to T-Mobile down an alleyway. It has some outdoor picnic tables down the alley and a good number of high tops and more picnic tables inside. The inside is very spacious and very cool looking. The bartender was very friendly and gave us a little background on the different types of beer they offer. We both decided to do a flight before we decided on a pint. Alas, not all of the beers were my favorite and I did not like their seltzer at all. I did however really enjoy their MacCulloch Kolsch so I got a pint of that. I do want to return to taste the other beer options I didn't get to try. The atmosphere of the brewery is excellent and I will definitely return to have another pint of the Kolsch and maybe try a different beer or two. Thanks Glenbrook Brewery for a lovely evening!
Decent little place. I tried four of their beers in a flight and really liked 2 of them. I also tried one of their seltzers. I went right when they opened on a weekday, and it wasn't too crowded. They had board games for those that wanted to play. Some merch available for purchase. No food, but had menus available for local places to deliver from available.
Great brewery nestled in the midst of a suburban main downtown shopping district. Awesome beers and great nods to Morristown's ties to Revolutionary Era America.
Good beer selections. Good service. Recommend if you are in the area. Drink a beer. Take a walk. I needed 85 characters. Omit last 5 sentences including this one.
Delicious beers and great brewery vibes with games to play! Menus line the counter when you walk in with places that deliver food. Service was quick and helpful!
If you're in the Morristown area this is a perfect brewery to stop in. It has indoor and outdoor seating, and overall just a comfortable atmosphere. I'm not usually a beer drinker but I really enjoyed my flight. Justin and Ashley were working behind the bar and helped me pick out my flight based on what I normally drink. I enjoyed that they also had a seltzer option on the menu. I loved that there were board and card games that we could play while we drank it made the experience even more fun. I also believe you can bring your own food if you want to get takeout from one of the nearby restaurants! This is a perfect place to go and catch up with friends! I will absolutely be coming back here
Nice brewery close to downtown Morristown. Cool wood tables and spacious seating area and large bar area. Beer is good - Midnight Ride was the best we tried. The hazy IPA had a bit of a bitter finish. Small outdoor seating area. Plenty of board games available inside. A few large screen TVs to watch any sporting events on. Slightly tucked back from the road and hard to spot unless you know the place is here. Give a try. read more
History lovers will enjoy this revolutionary themed brewery in Morristown, NJ, a town which has ties to the continental army's winter encampment in 1777 as well as 1779 - 1780. Many of Glenbrook's beers are named after the revolutionary period, such as their Midnight Ride American Nitro Stout. And be sure to check out the "paintings" of the staff members on their website. You won't be disappointed. Parking is a challenge as the brewery is located in the downtown area without a dedicated parking lot. My girlfriend and I came on a Sunday afternoon and were only able to find street parking a few blocks away. The taproom itself is a beautiful warehouse style space with small decorative revolutionary flourishes, views of the brewing equipment, a long bar but no seating at the bar, long wooden tables and plenty of high top tables, and more than enough tv's to show NFL football. A side business called Salt Pepper Ketchup (a man selling food off a flattop grill and a fryer) was located in the corner. His food looked incredible but we didn't try any. The beer was pretty good, all decent renditions of their respective styles. We each tried a flight and enjoyed what we had. Good beer, good food, football on the tv, friendly staff, decent sized crowd but not obnoxiously full... all in all great Sunday vibes and we would totally come back. read more

Visited Glenbrook Brewery with friends and their kids on a Saturday afternoon. Placed in downtown Morristown, it was tucked next to the Mavis Tire and we were able to park in the municipal parking lot and have a short walk over. Your standard brewery fair - industrial interior with long tables and benches. The menu had a selection of kolsch beer, sours, red ale, and pilsner. All the beers were very good and tasted like the actual type of beer they claimed to be - eg: a pilsner taster like a pilsner. As a note, this brewery is also family friendly and dog friendly! We enjoyed our visit! read more

MORRISTOWN: Glenbrook Brewery is a new and first brewery in downtown Morristown and leashed dogs are allowed at their outdoor tables! We recommend bringing a dog bed or mat to protect from the heat as it is very sunny on the patio. The beers are revolutionary war themed to pay respect to the history of the area. You can have a flight, pint, or take some cans/growler to-go! Bring your own food too! read more

Hidden behind a T-Mobile retail outlet and adjacent to Mavis Discount Tire within walking distance from the NJ Transit station in Morristown, Glenbrook Brewery offers a variety of tasty beers in their large, open tasting room. Glenbrook produces several types of tasty and fresh beer on-site - including IPAs, ales, lagers. stouts, seasonally-inspired ales, and seltzers -- and rotates the selections on tap in the tasting room. Beers are available in 5 oz pours ($4-6), 16 oz pours ($6-8) or try a flight of four 5 oz pours ($15) to sample several and pick your favorite, then grab a 64 oz or 32 oz growler or cans to go. Food is not available directly from Glenbrook, but menus are available at the brewery for the many, many options in Morristown that will deliver to Glenbrook. I was excited to meet up with two former colleagues at Glenbrook on a recent Saturday afternoon around 3pm. The tasting room was packed when we arrived, with a couple of the long, picnic-style tables occupied by kids' birthday parties. I'm not sure what makes Glenbrook so popular with young families, but there were several groups enjoying tasty beers and pizza while their kids frolicked around the tasting room. There is a semi-private room on the second floor overlooking the tasting room that is available to be reserved in advance by reaching out to the brewery by email or phone. The three of us enjoyed our beers and agreed they earned a solid 4 out of 5 stars for their smooth, consistent flavors. I tried the Jacob Arnold's Porter and the Morristown Hazy IPA. Both were very tasty. The Porter lived up to its promise of robust chocolate and coffee flavors and the Hazy IPA didn't seem to be intentionally over-hopped to hide other flavor deficiencies. I'd definitely go back next time I'm in the area. read more

This is a really good brewery to visit if you are going to be in downtown Morristown. There are a lot of other restaurants and attractions right within walking distance. I went there because I was going to a concert at the Mayo Arts Center right afterwards. Normally breweries tend to either be located in an industrial park or in the downtown area. This one was sort of a mixture of both. You could tell it was an old industrial building, but it was right in town. At any rate, they re-invented the space beautifully. There was a very large initial investment. I liked the higher and picnic tables on the inside which were made from better wood. There was no service at the bar, and it was all tableservice. Hopefully that will change at some point because it's a nice bar. There was also no space for guys to just come and hang out. It's definitely better for groups. But I found the table service to be formal and very attentive. The beers are on par with most breweries in New Jersey. The best one I had was Minutemen IPA, which was tasted similar to a west coast. They have a crowler machine. As a sidenote, a lot of their themes were based upon the revolutionary war history in Morristown. Fort Nonsense Brewing in Denville already has that theme, so I would've liked to have seen this brewery to differentiate themselves a little bit more. read more

Six taps of revolutionary beer right now including two IPAs, an ale, a Kölsch, a porter and a mango seltzer. Flights of four 5oz pours are $15 ouch, 32oz crowlers to go are $13-15, 64oz growler fills $22-26. The tour is virtual and you should bring food! Kölsch was light, cloudy, nice - the gateway beer :) Colonial pale ale was refreshing, good. Very much liked the porter, near perfect. I'm not an ipa person so I'll spare you my opinion there lol except to say that their Motown IPA is less hoppy than their Ft Nonsense NE IPA. The rehabbed space behind T-Mo is super bright & clean with four big picnic tables plus a bunch of small high tables. Outside patio is opening up soon, that will be key. Chatted a while with the brewer & co-owner Heath T. who is planning good things like that patio, a filtration system for the cloudy Kölsch, more fermentation tanks and maybe someday even a lager beer. Operating a 15-barrel system right now, brewing once a week, needs more tanks. I visited at a quiet time - 4:15 on a weekday- so their current 90 minute limit didn't get me. read more
Really cool spot nestled in the middle of town. I've been wanting to come here and so glad I was able to today. I guess we made good timing as we were seated right away and didn't have to wait. You can view the menu by scanning the QR code which I like. I was slightly underwhelmed by the seltzer, it was kind of bland for my taste, but the beer was awesome and the staff was very friendly. The vibe of this place is really cool too. For anyone nervous about covid they did a very good job cleaning off the tables after each party, and the had the entrance garage door wide open. It looks like there are windows around the place that could be opened too. Would definitely come back again and try other beers. read more

Love this place - it's so great that it's wheelchair accessible, plus dog and kid friendly. They allow outside food, and with lots of options nearby, there's something for everyone. We've even had a chance to meet the owners, and they're such nice guys. I normally order their hazy IPA, but my fiancé loves their Irish Red. We'll definitely come back for trivia or for a Colonial Tavern night. read more

Hello, new brew! My friend told me Morristown had its own place finally so I figured I had to go (followup to Revolution, which carries beer from everywhere). Figured I'd start with the more basic amber ale, so I ordered one on draft and... they poured it out of a can and told me after. I guess their keg had tapped but please tell me before? Because I'm paying a little more per pint for the tap variety. At least it was delicious, along with Jacob Arnold's Porter (notes of chocolate, maybe less so coffee despite their description). The place itself is your standard brewery, a lot of wide-open room inside without walling off the tanks so you can see everything as it's made. Your usual knowledgeable bartenders are happy to bring you whatever, keep open tabs per person, whatever it takes to move your day along. But yeah, they're still pretty new (2021) and so they're still building up their supplies and varieties. May be worth a return at some point to see how they're coming along! read more

DUDE! When I tell you the 38 min drive we took to get here, plus the hour wait time was worth it ? IT WAS WORTH IT!!!!! I'm huge fan of beer so I was super excited to try this cute place out. Granted we did come on its second weekend of Grand opening, so of course it was busy. But honestly it wasn't that bad. You're able to buy drinks before being seated & play board games to kill time. Now, let's talk about beer: 1. Colonial Ale- it's lighter version of an IPA, so much so you can taste the crisp of the hops but it won't dry out your pallet like an IPA would. Very light, almost airy? It was exquisite, this one was my favorite. 2. Porter- this is more of a stout- malty, chocolaty, coffee pállate with a smooth almost carbonated finish. At first I was super stoked to try it because I'm a Guinness girl, but this one personally, its 3-tiers down. It needs less of the coffee and chocolate note, add a little more roasted unmalted barley and a nitro pour with a different ratio of Nitrogen and Carbon Dioxide to give it that smooth, creamy balance. 3. IPA- this one has a similar taste to Kane. High notes of citrus and tropical fruits, also crisp. They hit it out of the ball park with this one. No complaints, it was perfect. 4. Mango Seltzer- this one tasted like a skinny version of a smirnoff ice original. It was kind of flat and really sweet. Perhaps if the vanilla notes were dropped a little and added some lemon lime, maybe that will help kick in the mango. Def needs to be carbonated more before serving, this way it won't be flat and will be nice and bubbly as you sip away. Personally, this was my least favorite. 5. Shandy- this one tasted a little similar to leinenkugel. Instead of the aroma being dominated by lemon it's more mango mixed with ipa. Wow! This was also made to perfection, such a refreshing summery drink. For sure they hit this one out of the ball park, no complaints here. This one was my husbands favorite. Service ? Stupendous. Gabby our waitress delivered superb service. She was a complete sweetheart. She told us about the menu step by step and told us our beer options. Once our beer flights arrived she re-explained them to us, which was great because I like to know what I'm drinking. A few moments after sampling the beers, one of the owners Conner came by and humbly asked for our opinion. At first we just thought he was another server checking up on us, but after sometime of chatting he formally introduced himself as the owner. He told us how they started the process 5 years ago in a small garage, which explains the layout- its so New York! Honestly, him coming over and spending time with us meant a lot and won over our hearts. He's so amazing, his energy, his soul, his knowledge of the beer was so intriguing we didn't want him to leave haha. My husband and I are both in love with this place. Please do yourself a favor and give them a try- this brewery is like no other and rest assured it will knock your socks out! CHEERS ! read more
