Buttzville Brewing Company: Crafting Community and Classic Brews in Washington, NJ

Nestled in the heart of Washington Borough, New Jersey, Buttzville Brewing Company offers a welcoming retreat for craft beer lovers seeking quality brews and a friendly atmosphere. Founded by Dave and Erin Andersen, the brewery officially opened its doors on July 31, 2021, after years of passionate homebrewing and overcoming pandemic-related delays. Their mission is clear: to brew high-quality, classic-style beers while fostering a vibrant community hub.

Specific Features that Define Buttzville Brewing:

• Emphasis on Classic Styles (with a Twist): While they specialize in traditional American and European beer styles, Buttzville isn’t afraid to experiment. You’ll find everything from crisp lagers and balanced pale ales to robust stouts and unique seasonal offerings. Look for their “Norwegian Sprinter” Blonde Ale brewed with Kveik yeast, the “Derri-AIR Express” Coconut Espresso Porter, or the adventurous “Too Hot To Handle” Jalapeño Cucumber Kölsch.

• Supporting Local: They are committed to supporting their local community, reflected in their efforts to source ingredients locally when possible and their engagement with local businesses.
