WE'RE MOVING!

You may have noticed within the past year how tight our space has gotten storage-wise. (Plenty of you actually asked us if we were moving *last* summer, but really, we just had a lot of stuff and not a lot of space… and that helped lead us to this decision!). Thankfully though, we can officially say that we’ve found a fresh, more spacious home base for Fort Nonsense Brewing Co. 

Our new spot is less than two miles from our current location, and it’s on Franklin Road—but that’s all we’re revealing at the moment!! More info will be released soon, and we’ll be posting construction updates weekly. 👷‍♂️ Our anticipated ETA for our new location and grand reopening will be Fall 2021. This location will have: double the square footage, more seating, a larger beer garden space, more taps (aka, more beer options!), and plenty of room for activities. We cannot wait to host bigger events, have live music, wider distribution throughout NJ and bring you even more of the beers you keep asking for (we hear you, we swear!).

It’s been great to have our humble beginnings at 3118 Rt 10 West over the last three-plus years, and we can’t wait to make even more memories with all of you in our new home later this year. We really couldn’t be doing this without you. And if it’s been awhile since you’ve stopped by, make sure to visit us this summer before we make our big move!

Again, thank you thank you thank you. It’s an amazing, scary time to run a small business, and we appreciate your support more than you can imagine. The community of craft beer drinkers around us is astoundingly awesome and we hope you continue to enjoy the brews, the atmosphere and the company.

Cheers,
Fort Nonsense Brewing Company’s Aslanian Family & the Fort Fam

Summer Hours + Craft Seltzer is back!

GREAT NEWS! 🙌 As the weather heats up, we’re expanding our hours so you can enjoy brews six days a week, and a bit later, too.

Starting Tuesday, April 27th, our taproom and beer garden hours will now be:

Tuesdays - Fridays 4-10pm
Saturdays 12-10pm
Sundays 12-6pm

And… there’s… more!

NONSELTZER, OUR 4.5% CRAFT HARD SELTZER IS BACK! ...and we think better than ever!🙌
The perfect drink for the warmer weather (besides beer, of course!) is making its triumphant return on tap and available for crowler and growler fills. Try our Nonseltzer in a variety of flavors including two totally new options—Passionfruit and Mango—plus the return of Raspberry, Raspberry/Lime, Blood Orange and Lemon Lime.

Also, after careful consideration, we are bringing back flights and glassware (!!!), but at this time they’ll be indoors only due to the nature of our beer garden. The beer garden will remain 10oz and 16oz single-use plastic, and of course if you’d prefer that inside too, just let your beertender know! But we’re really excited to be able to offer you flights again! Come try our four staples, or get a flight of our new seltzers—or mix and match!

Cheers!
FNBC

EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT TAKEOUT/DELIVERY!

Hi all,

It’s been quite a few crazy weeks, but we wanted to lay out all the info needed while visiting Fort Nonsense Brewing at this time.

OUR TAKEOUT WINDOW HOURS:

1-6PM DAILY!

That’s right—we’re around 7 days/week for your beer runs! You can place your order ahead of time on https://shopfortnonsensebrewing.square.site/ or walk up to our window while we’re open and place your order there. Please no phone orders.

DELIVERY:

All home delivery is next-day. Our site may sometimes give you a delivery date of two days, but that is not accurate! If your order is placed before midnight the previous day, you will get your delivery the following day. We are delivering within a 15-mile radius, $36min. You must be present to show you are at least 21+ (even if it’s through a window). We cannot just “leave it and go.” Please place all home delivery orders on our site, no over-the-phone.

BEER:

At the moment, we have 4-packs of various beers available in addition to 32oz and 64oz growler fills and 25.4oz and 32oz crowler fills for draft beers. 4-packs should be consumed within six months, crowlers within four weeks and growler jugs within 4-7 days max. Please note: We will not fill any outside growlers for sanitation purposes. All our availability is posted daily on our social media pages!

Any changes, developments and beer releases are posted on our Facebook and Instagram daily @fortnonsensebrewing, so be sure to follow along!

Thanks for supporting local craft beer!

🍻Coronavirus Update 🍻

Good news—you can still drink Fort Nonsense beer while laying low. Bad news—you can’t drink it in our taproom.

We’re sure you’ve heard about the changes happening in the tri-state area this week to slow the spreading of COVID-19. This is a trying time for all (especially local businesses) and we hope you all stay safe, healthy, and find ways to support your community. In line with Governor Murphy’s guidance, we are eliminating on-site consumption until further instructed.

Shortened hours for TO-GO ONLY starts Wednesday 3/18. Cans, bottles and growler fills are available (you may still bring growlers, but note there will be a service delay while we sanitize it). If you’d like to call ahead to place a growler fill order, you can reach us at 862-397-4777 during business hours (Don’t forget to take care of your beertender!). Kegs are available for purchase for customers with kegerators/keezers only, call or message us ahead of time for availability. As usual, we’ll keep you updated on what’s available day-to-day for cans/fills.

Gift cards/merch are still available on-site, or you can buy e-giftcards on FortNonsenseBrewing.com. 

NEW HOURS:
4-8pm Wednesdays through Fridays
1-6pm Saturdays & Sundays


We won’t be doing curbside, but for those uncomfortable with entering the building, we are doing HOME DELIVERY! That’s right, we’ll bring the beer to your house. How it works:
You can place an order directly through our online store here.

For those interested in emailing us instead:
-Email info@fortnonsensebrewing.com with your cans/bottles/growler fills order (growler fills available while supplies last), full name, address and best contact phone number. Please make DELIVERY ORDER the email subject.
-If we receive your email by 3pm, you will receive day-of delivery. (The van will be making deliveries on open days from 4-6pm).
-Minimum of three items per order. Must be within a 10-mile radius of Fort Nonsense Brewing (or within reason). Must have a valid ID and be 21+. Credit card only. Delivery fee $2.

More good news—we already had some exciting releases on deck for you that you can still enjoy! Screen Peeker Sour IPA (6.7%) brewed and dry-hopped with South African Queen, Idaho 7 and El Dorado hops plus soursop, is available starting Wednesday 3/18 for growler fills. Plus, we’ll have fresh 4-packs of our Regolith New England IPA: Apogee available 3/18 too! (Stay tuned for the full list).

Thank you to everyone for your support during this time. We’re hoping this answers many of your questions. Stay safe, healthy and keep supporting local.

Cheers!
