Double Nickel Brewing Company: South Jersey’s Modern Brewpub Destination

If you consider yourself a true enthusiast of the craft beer scene, you owe it to yourself to make the pilgrimage to Double Nickel Brewing Company in Pennsauken. More than just a brewery, this massive operation has evolved into one of South Jersey’s premier brewpub destinations—a place where world-class brewing is backed by a commitment to community and fun.

The Experience: A True South Jersey Taproom

Double Nickel’s identity is defined by its sheer scale and thoughtful design. Housed in a massive, high-ceilinged building (a former fitness center!), the taproom features an impressive 40-foot bar and ample seating across the main room, a back lounge, and a mezzanine. It’s the perfect spot whether you’re settling in for a quiet pint or coordinating a massive friends-and-family meet-up.

Forget brown-bagging your snacks—Double Nickel has dramatically upgraded its offerings by opening an on-site kitchen serving up fantastic pizza, sandwiches, and appetizers. This transition means they now offer a full brewpub experience, complete with an expanded beverage menu that includes high-quality wine and cocktails for the non-beer drinker.

For entertainment, the brewery ensures everyone stays connected and engaged. Look for the casual Lounge area, featuring plush couches, cornhole, and even a classic Nintendo 64 setup. They also boast two dedicated private event spaces—The Mezzanine and The Lounge—making it an ideal location for private parties. They are also known for being a family-friendly spot, and even welcome your four-legged friends on their spacious outdoor patio/beer garden.

The Brews: Modern Classics with an Innovative Twist

Head Brewer Drew Perry and the team operate under a philosophy of “Modern Brewed Classics.” While you can always find flawless takes on traditional styles like their beloved Vienna Lager and crisp Pilsner, the tap list is a playground of innovation. Expect everything from complex barrel-aged stouts and heavy-hitting IPAs (like the famous 420 Series) to unique, flavor-forward creations like milkshake IPAs and seasonal sours. There is truly something for every palate, ensuring a rewarding discovery with every visit.

The History

Double Nickel Brewing Company officially opened its doors in October 2015, the culmination of a long-held dream shared by four South Jersey natives. The name itself is a nod to local history, derived from the historical nickname for the nearby Tacony-Palmyra bridge. This spirit of connecting local roots with a modern, outward-looking approach defines everything they do.
