I love this place. Always a great selection of craft drafts and friendly bar keepers. No drama, just and easy hang with full and sample size offerings. Inviting and encouraged to bring or have a meal delivered. We love to bring a meal; 8 bone prime rib, deviled eggs, sweet potatoes, cauliflower mash, cream spinach, jumbo shrimp, au Jus, and homemade apple pie. Paired with ales, stouts, and IPAs. Must visit!!

Despite COVID-19 restrictions, the folks at Gusto remain committed to making great beer for takeout. Their “Pop Shove It” is one of the best IPAs in the industry. Their ESBs are always fantastic. The people at Gusto are extremely friendly and committed to their craft and their customers!

This is a family friendly taproom, where you can bring the kiddos. They can't sell food, but you can certainly bring your own lunch or dinner. It's located on Rte. 9, in a strip mall, on the right, as you head out toward the ferry terminal. We tried the Pop-Shove It, and Slam Poet, both of which are IPAs. AFAIK, they don't do carry-out of cans, but you can order selections in 32 oz. growler pours.. Service is prompt, and courteous. The atmosphere is relaxed. They also have a turntable that actually plays vinyl, and the music selection while we were there was what we were listening to in college in the late '70s and early '80s. I highly recommend this place if you have an hour or two to spare, to relax, and have a brewski or two.

In July 2011, we found our home at the Cape May Airport, excitedly purchased our forklift, and delivered our first keg of Cape May IPA to Cabanas Beach Bar and Grill. Since then, we’ve proudly crafted balanced and flavorful ales and lagers for thousands of happy locals and visitors. Throughout the year, hundreds of our beers can be found throughout New Jersey, Eastern Pennsylvania, and Delaware. We are proud to distribute our beers to hundreds of bars, restaurants, and liquor stores, on draft and in cans, ensuring premium freshness and excellent service. Our Tasting Room is one of the largest and most accessible in the state, with a spacious and sunny Beer Garden. You can visit our gift shop, “The Brewtique,” and take our interactive, self-guided tour. While many production breweries are only open a few hours per week, we are open daily from 12PM–7PM.

Spent three days at Congress Hall where one of the featured local breweries is C.M. Brewing Co. I was so impressed with the product that I purchased 2 cases of 'The Grove' to bring back to Ohio. Now I just have to ration it.......

In early 2014, the HCSV Foundation Board of Trustees voted unanimously to pursue the development of a small brewery on the Village grounds with the name Cold Spring Brewery. To this end, and in keeping with the mission of the Historic Cold Spring Village, an 1804 three bay English-style Cape May County barn from Upper Township was purchased. Stillwell and Elizabeth Corson, a familiar name in the County, built the classic building. Permission to restore and reconstruct the barn, board by board, and place it on Village property was received from both the Lower Township and County of Cape May Zoning Boards along with approvals to utilize the barn in connection with the proposed brewery. Although the barn/brewery is located outside the Village fencing, it remains part and parcel of the 30 acres that are located between Seashore Road and Route 9 in Cold Spring, containing 27 restored historic structures. Funding for the project was secured through HCSV Foundation's fundraising events, donations, memberships, retail sales, corporate sponsorship for programs and gate revenue. Its purpose is to stabilize the museum for future generations to enjoy.

The Cols Springs Brewery was honestly better than I had anticipated. They had a very warm, quaint setting with a welcoming atmosphere and a nice selection of different beers.

We didn't know this place existed until we got sent on a Rte. 47 detour that sent us over to Rte. 9 to get down to Cape May, and we passed it on our way down. So, of course, when we hit a day that was supposed to have afternoon thunderstorms, we decided we had to stop by for a pint. It's off-season, and we stopped by mid-afternoon, so we had the place to ourselves, other than the guy who stopped in to grab some carry-out cans. It's basically a taproom, where you can bring your own food, if you want. The woman "manning" the place was wonderful. I got a Walter, and my souse got a 7 Mile Pale Ale (a session IPA). Both were good. We got a 4-pack of canned pints of the 7 Mile Pale Ale to-go before we left. Next time we visit Cape May, we'll stop by again. Rio Grande is just up the road.

We grabbed a group of friends & headed to a local brewery CoHo's (Court House Brewing Company). What a great time! We sampled all their great themed beers, my favorite was the Pineapple beer - "Five-O", there was a wine inspired beer - the thin blue line & many more. Some of my friends had the Jury box - 12 samples!. We peeked in at the big expansion with the cool new "huge" bar, sofas & lots of places to spread out & relax. It seems they are doing great and wanting to even get better. The staff as friendly, knowledgeable & always ready to re-fill your glass. Karen & Russ came to our table to ask how everything was - they were so nice, you can tell it's a family environment there.
