Tonight the New Jersey Beer Company is hosting a brewery tour from 6-9pm at 4201 Tonnelle Avenue, North Bergen, NJ, specifically for JC Ties members—Jersey City’s networking group for young professionals. Sign up to join the club here.

“Considering that the New Jersey Beer Company is the only brewery in Hudson County, it only makes sense to support it!” boasts the flier. I totally agree.

Taste Garden State Stout, Hudson Pale Ale, 1787 Abbey Single Ale and seasonal brews.  After the free sample pours, order a pint or two—all are priced at $5 or below.

Also, The NJBC has a special raffle for Jersey City Ties members only: One lucky winner will go home with a growler of craft beer (64 oz.) and two pint glasses.

If you can’t make tonight’s event, note that NJBC does brewery tours and tastings for the public every Friday night from 5-9pm and Saturday from 1-6pm.

Insider Tip: You can get a $4 credit with New Jersey Beer Company (anytime) if you take a pic in front of their billboard on 6th St. and Jersey Ave.
