A major festival to promote craft beers was a big success over the weekend. Tickets flew out the door fast for Saturday’s Garden State Craft Brewer’s Guild Brews by the Bay, held at the ferry terminals in both Lower Township and Delaware. Local breweries were able to showcase their craft beers and thousands of patrons were able to sample them and pick out their favorites. Recent changes in New Jersey law now allow customers to purchase their beer directly from local breweries, if they take a tour.
