🍺🐾 MILFORD, NJ: THIS IS NOT YOUR AVERAGE BREWERY! 🥨🥃
A brewery, a wh***ey lover’s paradise and incredible food? We may have just discovered one of New Jersey’s most impressive hidden gems!
Descendants Brewing Company at the Old Ship Inn says they are “More Than Just a Brewery,” and WOW, do they deliver! For years, we have searched for a place that combines a true passion for craft b**r, an extraordinary selection of spirits, and quality food. We FINALLY found it!
Housed in a historic building along a picturesque creek, Descendants Brewing Company is also known for being the first brewery in New Jersey since Prohibition to brew b**r for on-premise consumption!
Here are FIVE reasons we fell in LOVE with this place! 👇
🍺 1️⃣ B**R LOVERS, PREPARE TO BE AMAZED!
Of course, they brew their own b**r, but that is just the beginning! You will also find guest taps and an ENORMOUS international b**r selection featuring brews from around the world. Their impressive collection of b**rs absolutely blew us away!
🥃 2️⃣ A SPIRITS COLLECTION THAT LEFT US SPEECHLESS!
Over 200 bottles of WH***EY alone! 🤯 Add an extraordinary selection of rum, gin, tequila, mead, w**e, and so much more!
Forget a typical drink menu. They literally hand you a BOOK filled with their offerings! We kept turning page after page, amazed at what we discovered. It is easily one of the most impressive selections we have encountered anywhere!
🥨 3️⃣ INCREDIBLE FOOD TO MATCH THE DRINKS!
This isn’t a brewery where food is an afterthought. Their extensive menu offers something for everyone, and we absolutely LOVED the German soft pretzel! Perfectly baked, with a delicate crunch on the outside and a warm, soft center. Pretzel perfection!
They also host special food and beverage pairing dinners throughout the year!
❤️ 4️⃣ PEOPLE WHO TRULY LOVE WHAT THEY DO!
This might be what impressed us most!
Owner Joe couldn’t have been kinder or more passionate about his establishment. And bartender Ashley was absolutely fantastic! Her knowledge of the extensive b**r and spirits collection, thoughtful recommendations, and enthusiasm made our visit unforgettable.
We also learned about their exciting calendar of events, including live music, trivia, spirits classes, and special pairing dinners!
🏡 5️⃣ HISTORIC CHARM & AN ATMOSPHERE FULL OF CHARACTER!
Nestled alongside a creek in a beautiful historic building, Descendants has that wonderful old-school charm that makes you want to settle in, explore the menu, and stay awhile.
What makes Descendants truly stand out isn’t just the incredible selection of food and drinks. It is the passion behind everything they do. You can feel how much the people here love their craft, and that excitement is contagious!
