Beach Haus Brewery: Your Coastal Craft Escape in Belmar, NJ

Nestled just blocks from the iconic Jersey Shore in Belmar, Beach Haus Brewery offers a vibrant and expansive destination for craft beer lovers and casual visitors alike. Founded in 2007, Beach Haus has grown into a major player in the New Jersey brewing scene, moving into its impressive 30-barrel brew house in the former Freedman’s Bakery building in March 2015. They’ve since become a true brewpub, offering a full culinary experience alongside their diverse beers.
