First off, I love this place! We walked in and were welcomed by two friendly servers. I love the whole atmosphere and layout of this brewery. It's definitely my kind of space to chill, kick back, and enjoy some amazing craft beers. We ordered: Sun Deck Flex Ginger-Lime Kolsch 10/10 Ground Under Repair APA 10/10 I also love their outdoor space too. We took our beers out there and sat at a picnic table and enjoyed ourselves tremendously. This is a very hip little spot and I cannot wait to come back again and enjoy it for all that it is and more. I am looking forward to trying more of your beers very soon, but until then... Thanks for the excellent beer and friendly service. Slánte!
This place is suchhhhh a vibe! It's a total HIDDEN GEM. We stumbled upon this place and so glad we did. The staff is nice and the beers are sooo good! You gotta try this place out. It looked a bit sketch from the outside but never judge a book by its cover :)
Hubby and I attended a private party and had access to the private room, downstairs, known as The Library. It is an enchanting room where the owners are lovers of books and collected a plethora of books and turned some into seating stools, others into wall ornaments, and they even have a vintage antique typewriter and vintage antique phones from the 50s. There is also the main upstairs which is open to all. As soon as you walk towards their entryway, you can smell the hops and it smells herbal. I am not much of a beer drinker. Personally, I prefer champagne, wines, and cocktails. If I am to do beers, my preference is usually a shandy. For those who are like me and do not want to feel left out, order yourself Tons of Bubbles Hard Seltzer. It has a light and refreshing black cherry fizzy beer taste at 4.3% ABV. I also tried their Wrought Gold: Blood Orange Blond Ale at 5.5% ABV. Personally, I was not a fan. I found it heavy and not refreshing but again, I am not a beer connoisseur. Food can be brought into the brewery and there are plenty of tables for you to sit down and enjoy your food. There is also an outside seating with benches and picnic tables giving you a Biergarten feel. "Feel free to bring your kids and dogs," as per the Taproom staff. Bathrooms are found both on the main floor and in The Library.
Really cool spot hidden in an industrial park type area. We tried a few beers, Robot Insurance hazy ipa was real solid. The Blood Orange Blonde was pretty good and my wife loved the Identity Cri?is Coconut. Beers were all about $7 a pop which is the going rate. Bartenders were cool and they had live music around 6pm on Saturday. The band was pretty good. We will be back.
I know we've reviewed this place and I swear Yelp or someone keeps removing our reviews! We've been coming here since they opened and we always love the beer and the atmosphere here. In the warmer months, they have a nice outside area and food truck. They also have a downstairs area. They've adapted to Covid guidelines nicely and we felt very safe coming here during the pandemic. Great beer and nice people, no doubt. I love their porters, especially the chocolate vanilla porter. The pineapple IPA is also great. We are never disappointed when here but I'll be disappointed if our review goes mysteriously missing again! Edit: this is our 1,100th review!
What a great find! Cute little brewery tucked away but worth checking out. I was disappointed at first since they were out of IPAs so I decided to do a flight. They had some outstanding stouts and a delicious coffee porter. Service was very friendly & they were well educated on the beers & allowed samples. Although small upstairs they have a beer garden outside & a cool library downstairs. We were lucky enough to score a seat on the comfy leather couch. I'd definitely come back!
A private event prompted a visit to Two Ton Brewing. On our visit, the brewers were making a batch of Hammer and Ale. A whoff of wort and humidity hit us as we entered the brewery. Inside, brewing equipment is on your right with counters with chairs along side it. A bar sits front and center and to the right are steps leading to a loft. Further back to the right are steps leading down to the private party area. A quick scan of the menu, the following were ordered. * Hammer and Ale, a West Coast Style @ 9.1% ABV * Wrought Gold: Blood Orange Blond Ale @ 5.5% ABV * Crispy Boi, a German Style Lager @ 5.6% ABV * Tons of Bubbles, Hard Cider with Black Cherry 4.3% * Extra Special Chocolate Vanilla Porter, @7.2% ABV * Some other IPA that I can't remember Two Ton gets a 4 star rating for atmosphere, friendly staff and the cool Library Themed Private Party Area. Unfortunately, I found their brews were a bit heavy in grain flavors muting hop additions. Notes: * Located in a small industrial park next to an auto body shop. * Limited parking.
Harry P. and I stopped by Two Ton Brewing while waiting for a pizza. It's a small brewery, with a good variety of beers they created on tap. They have their own parking lot, board games, and tables in case you wanna hang around. After the required "tour" we each ordered a flight of four. The bartender was friendly and the beers were good. They had a lot of interesting ones. My favorites were the black swan saison and the vanilla chai stout. I like that their beers have high ABVs. It means i get drunk quicker
Great beer and the people there are amazing. They let you taste the beer before buying a glass or you could do a flight. They have a great outdoor seating and indoor seating as well. You can bring your own food or snacks. Great place to hang out with friends or family.
About 15 well-crafted IPAs, NEIPAs, saisons, stouts and porters from a 3.5 barrel system. Plenty of strong flavors and high ABVs here if that's your thing, like a Russian Imperial Stout at 11%. Very fair pricing on flights, just $9 for four 4oz pours, those are usually $3 individually. 64oz growlers go for $17-19. I'm a fan of their American pale ale and the porter. No lagers tho, the lightest offering was a session IPA at 4%. Located in a light industrial park, the exterior looks like a small house but it's well signed. Friendly staff, small tasting room, a dozen bar stools and some tables. No food truck but Big Apple pizza is right around the corner. Parking lot holds about ten cars, we had to park on the street. Children welcome, dogs not so much. Only one bathroom. You laugh, but that was kind of a problem even with a half-empty tasting room. Hey it's beer, you don't buy it you rent it. In our brothers we trust? Not sure which brothers but it's a fine slogan. Beer this strong hits me like two tons of bricks :)
LOVE Two Ton Brewing! Their process for ordering during COVID is super easy, and I cannot wait until I can enjoy a beer inside. I picked up their Situation Normal IPA & the Uncanny Perspicacity sour on my way to PA, and we enjoyed our beers by the lake all weekend. I highly recommend! Super awesome, friendly, helpful staff!

Two Ton Brewing had been just a contract brewery for a while. They had made a really delicious Wassale beer for the Christmas season at Rinn Duin Brewing, which I have frequented for years. When I heard that they were going to finally open their own actual tasting room, I was happy to hear that. Last weekend I finally made it. Turns out they have a really cool, dark, enigmatic, mysterious atmosphere, as evidence by the dim general lighting and the red accent lighting. The beers are made with extra grain, and they have a very bold, powerful taste to them. This is the way I like it! Two Ton is not for the faint of heart. Craft beer enthusiasts will like it a lot. Their facility is a little small, but they also have "The Library," which is this speakeasy cellar. So, once you get ants in your pants from the main level, you can retreat down there. It's cool. The staff members were really cool and helpful. The other thing is that they are centrally located right off the parkway, so you can get there easily. read more

Super nice brewery located in New Jersey. Plenty indoor and outdoor seating available, parking can be challenging if brewery parking is full. The staff is super friendly and lets you taste couple beers before purchasing a glass. If you don't want to drive too far to go to brewery, this definitely a spot to stop by. :) if you are planning to go, tryout their beer flights ..such reasonable prices and amazing vibes. read more
So NIck C. and I came to the area to try the legendary Santillos pizza...turns out because of their recent showing on barstool, it was an hour wait for a pie. So we wandered over to Two Ton for a flight and I was very impressed at the quality of beer they are putting out, especially being so new to the craft beer scene. My favorites were the Black swan saison and their chai stout. The chai stout was very well balanced, a lot of the time breweries use too much chai and it overpowers the beer. The black swan was very good, and I have not seen any saisons that use dark grains, this one looked like a stout in color, but because of the yeast they used, had the qualities of a saison style beer. I will be back for more. read more
Great new addition to the Kenilworth/ Union area! The venue is small, but you're really right in their workspace which is totally cool! They had a nice selection of beers and all of them were good, a few were excellent! Can't wait to go back! read more
I've found the Goldilocks of breweries tucked away in a small industrial pocket of nothing special. The brewery on the other hand is something special. The vibe here is something I'd find when I visit my bro's, welcoming with a hint of booze. I could probably write something better if I didn't already hit a flight of 11% deliciousness. So I'll leave you to decide the rest read more

Visiting family in the area and wanted to check out a local brewery. Am so glad I chose Two Ton. Dad and I each got a flight and then a second round after sampling a few others. Out of 8 beers tried, they were all amazing. The IPAs were some of the best I've ever had. The Hammer & Ale Imperial won both of us over with the complexity of flavor and smoothness in every sip. Other highlights included a NE IPA, Vanilla Chai Latte Milk Stout, Rye Belgian Ale, and Black Cherry Ale. The staff was so friendly and attentive. And the ambience of the downstairs tasting room was intimate and quirky. This will definitely be a place I visit every time I come visit the Garden State. read more

I love this brewery! Not only do they have great beers to drink but the service i was given by the owners (3 brothers and their father) and my two favorite bartenders was phenomenal! I hosted a friends birthday, they were very accommodating and reserved a table in the back area for about 20 ppl. They Set up a table for us for our food and even brought out some decorations. They gave the birthday boy a private tour and he was lucky enough to get to try one beer they just finished and were putting on tap next week! Everyone had an amazing time. We already started planning the next birthday to host there and we can't wait! Thank you Jim, Mike, Matt, their Dad, Katie and Gary! I really appreciate your hospitality! You are all amazing! -Stella and Crew read more

This brewery is great -- several rooms with different vibes and a few bars, an awesome outdoor space, plus the owners and staff are so friendly and welcoming. I had a delicious rye beer today and my friends loved the porter and stout too (strong at 9.2%, but didn't taste that way). There's even games to play while you're drinking and they had a food truck today. Go check it out! read more

I have been a couple times to Two Ton and it is truly a wonderful local brewery with a cool,sharp atmosphere. Matt and the staff are all very passionate about craft beer and go out of their way to treat everyone that enters the door like family. Was very impressed that several of the gentlemen behind the bar were inquiring for honest feedback and clearly want to make their customers happy. Keep up the great work!! read more
