One of two dogs on the property!
Scott P.

My girlfriend and I have been to A LOT of New Jersey breweries (this was #49 for us), and this is easily the most beautiful one we've ever seen. Self described as the Garden State's only farm brewery, it's located on an actual farm amongst the gorgeous rolling hills of Central Jersey. We stopped in on a Friday afternoon in April and stayed for a few hours, each trying a flight and two individual pours. There was a decent variety in beers on offer, and all the beers were good. The one stand out for me was the amber ale, which was one of the best renditions of an amber beer I've ever had. Malty and with just a touch of smokiness. One downside is indoor seating. There is a small porch covered by see-through tarp to block the wind, heated by a wood burning stove. A few picnic tables and a few standing tables. I hadn't brought a coat with me, and if the sun hadn't come out it would have been too cold to stay very long. I'm not sure how this place manages when it gets truly bitter cold in the winter. The outdoor area is easily triple the size of the "indoor" area, and I imagine it would be quite lovely to sit outside on a gorgeous summer evening taking in the scenery. Very friendly staff. Only one bathroom. We live about an hour away but will definitely make the effort to come back in warmer weather sometime soon.

Beers and we brought our own snacks

Friendly service, lots of seating available, though not many in the shade. We ordered a flight and a 10 oz beer. None of it comes in glasses, which I think cheapens the experience. The beers were good though, and they had a sour beer, which I appreciated. There's a lazy albeit dog that walks around slowly and enjoys being pet.

Crop circles for drinking beer.

5 enthusiastic stars for a wonderful afternoon out in the NJ pastures drinking beer with friends what else do you want! This is a must do, even if you are not a beer lover. One of New Jersey's more unique attractions, if you do like beer and microbreweries, then you should go as soon as you can! So obviously this is an outdoor event so I wouldn't plan to go in the winter necessarily. You come with your group of up to 10 people and are given what they call a crop circle. This is your private space outside to sit enjoy the scenery and drink craft beers. You are on a gorgeous farm in the heart of the farm pastures in New Jersey. A dog does room free and belongs to the property but he's very friendly and will not cause any trouble and may only visit you once maybe twice. They bring the beer to you, you need to have the Arryved app download it on your phone in advance. It really works so great and easy. Recommended to have one app per group. Important you need to bring your own chairs and other furniture. They do not supply tables or anything else for the larger crop circles. So don't bring a picnic table if you are bringing lawn chairs because it will be too big and you will not be able to see over the top and look at your friends on the other side. Bring a snack table or something low to the ground to put your drinks and food on. By the way bring all the food you want to eat, appetizers, main courses whatever you want. The actual beer here is not the very best but it really doesn't matter because the atmosphere is the very best and service too! However they do have a few really nice beers, I enjoyed a spiced pumpkin beer barrel aged. It was a tripel, if they have that make sure you order that one. Actually I would order any of their pumpkin beers. They do run out of beer so if you get there and they have a special pumpkin flavored beer order it in your first round don't hold off. So if you want to choose your crop circle location the way that is done is to get there early. If you were there 15 minutes before your seating time you will probably be one of the first few groups. All the groups seem to roll in at the last second. Keep in mind though that you need your whole group to be present to be in line. So if you have friends that are straggling late behind it was slow everybody down. Lie to your friends about what time they're supposed to be there and make it 30 minutes before the actual time. LOLLL. Because if you get there early there's plenty of scenery and walking around you can do anyway. Super highly recommended for a fabulous afternoon out in the garden state of New Jersey soaking in some of its best farming views with some delicious craft beer served to you! I don't know why you're still reading this review you should be making plans to go now!!!

Great, convenient brewery that is family and fall friendly. We brought our own snacks so we were able to enjoy the beer and great live music. Beer was good, I like the octoberfest and pumpkin. We went pumpkins picking next door and was surprised to see a brewery within walking distance, they share the same parking lot. There is food at the farm, you can get breakfast sandwiches and donuts and hot dogs as well as drinks so people were walking back to order food and bringing to the brewery. It was a fun afternoon and ending to our fun fall day

Cool place! Good Brews! Great setting/scenery. Live music was good. We got a flight sampler, 3 out of the 4 were good. The Rusty Farmer was the best, highly recommended. Relaxing environment. Come enjoy good beer and the beautiful scenery.

The Rusty Farmer Amber Ale
Ryan R.

Nice farmhouse brewery with a decent selection of beers to choose from. If you go, I'd recommend bringing your lawn chair because it does get crowded. Perfect place to go on a nice, sunny day.

Wow, this is located on Bullock farm property in Cream Ridge section of Upper Freehold Twp. We are told that this brewery has been here for two years. My brother and I stopped in this afternoon because I had heard about it and we just HAD to try it. We ordered a flight and then some. We came into conversation with three patrons and spent a good hour discussing beer, what else? My bro also spoke with the brewmeister while I noshed on pretzels between sips. Very interesting farm atmosphere. Some patrons sat outside and enjoyed the rhythms of the surrounding farmland. A very friendly staff made the trip very enjoyable Our favorite beer was the Rusty Farmer, by far the tastier of the other three, though the others were good.

One of a few farm breweries in central NJ. Like its neighbors Screamin' Hill and Needlecreek,…read moreBooterbeer is located on a spacious and beautiful farm in the middle of nowhere. This means there is plenty of parking. The brewery is located in a building next to the farm house. Very spacious inside with plenty of seating at the bar and other tables. Lots of games available including a foosball table. Only one bathroom. Nine beers on tap plus a hard iced tea. My girlfriend and I each had a flight and were able to sample just about the whole menu. $10 for a flight of four 5oz pours which is definitely the cheapest flight I've seen at a NJ brewery. The peanut butter stout, watermelon wheat and not so pale ale were all excellent. The peanut butter stout had a very subtle peanut butter flavor with a nice bitter aftertaste. None of that cloying sweetness found in some dessert stouts. The watermelon wheat also had a great, balanced watermelon flavor, and the not so pale ale had a nice nutty taste to it like an English brown ale. I really disliked the New Egypt hazy IPA as it tasted way too watered down and nothing like other hazy IPA's I've had. All beers - flights and full pours alike - were served in plastic cups which is a huge pet peeve of mine in breweries. The gentleman serving beer was incredibly friendly and I enjoyed briefly talking football with him (and I'll let it slide that he's a Giants fan). Overall it was a very pleasant afternoon - good beer, good conversation, the sound of the rain drumming on the roof. We will definitely come back someday.

Family run on a bucolic farm, looking out at the horse fields and never-ending sky views makes for a unique experience to enjoy a hand crafted beer. There is an indoor tasting room with bar seating, tables, a cushy cozy corner to hang out, and also an outdoor area with picnic tables, a cute gazebo, and kid toys. Featuring a variety of 10 beers on tap, we enjoyed a flight with their watermelon wheat, hard tea, pina colada wheat, and the root beer pale ale. There are also non-alcoholic canned soda available along with snacks (including pooch pretzels), and you can also bring your own food. Check social media for what food truck will be on-site, any events happening, and what new brews may be on tap. Being located on a farm, you can also enjoy pony rides and donkey cuddles for a small fee. Be on the lookout for other farm animals too. The owners, Lauren & Justin, created a truly family friendly and fun spot to enjoy the day.

The taproom, by contrast, is a fraction of the size of the outdoor space, but equally well decorated and chill. Several high top tables, a few seats at a small bar, a view of the brewing tanks... Most importantly the beer is excellent. My girlfriend and I stopped in on an early Friday afternoon in August and had a few 4 and 7 oz pours of different beers. Tall Oaks recently won a few awards in the inaugural New Jersey Brewers Cup, so we tried a few of their award winning beers, among others. My personal two favorites were the Cottage (English Session Ale on nitro) which won bronze in the European amber/dark lager category, and the Influencing Hope (hazy IPA) which won bronze in the hazy IPA category. One nitpicky thing: the tv displayed only part of the menu, and the full menu was printed on several stained and natty sheets of paper on clipboards. Didn't quite match the elegance elsewhere in the brewery. On top of the great vibes and great beer, there is ample parking, two immaculate bathrooms, friendly service and great people at the helm (Mike and Chelsey) who put real thought and pride into their beer and creating a space for the community. This is definitely one of the top breweries in NJ.

We are so happy they allow leashed-dogs at their spacious indoor tasting room! There are 6 beers on tap for your drinking pleasure and all are kosher!

You can get a pint or flight and if you want something to go, growlers are available! The tasting room is cool and modern with views of the huge brewing tanks and natural light from the big windows. You may bring your own food and snacks are available for purchase. The brewery is located inside the Ideal Plaza shopping center and there are plenty of grassy areas to take a walk. Since this place is so new, they are very good about posting their current hours on Instagram!

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.
