New Outdoor Space Added To Hillsborough Brewery To Enjoy Craft Beer, Music, Food Trucks

HILLSBOROUGH, NJ — Hillsborough brewery, Flounder Brewing Co., is expanding its outdoor space into the scenic back field at Carriage Farm for the fall season.

The new field area allows visitors to bring their own chairs, blankets, and even four-legged friends to spread out, relax, and take in the beauty of the farm while enjoying craft beer, live music, and local food trucks.

"Expanding into the back field was about creating more opportunities for people to connect — with each other, with the farm, and with our beer," said Jeremy Lees, founder of Flounder Brewing. "Fall is such a special season in New Jersey. We’re excited to give our guests an unforgettable place to enjoy it— whether that’s bringing the dog, catching a songwriter in the barn, or simply sipping a Märzen while the leaves change."

The outdoor paddock will be open Saturdays and Sundays through the end of October, from noon to 6 p.m. (weather permitting).

Flounder's Brewing is located in a beautifully restored 250-year-old barn where visitors can taste 24 rotating taps of beer, hard seltzers, and craft sodas.

The brewery also showcases live music every Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. Complementing the music, a lineup of rotating food trucks serves up local flavor Thursday through Sunday.

Coming up this fall, Flounder Brewing will be celebrating its 12th Anniversary, which will be celebrated with a special Oktoberfest on Saturday, Oct. 4.

Guests can expect festive German food, steins of Flounder’s award-winning Märzen Last Train to Munich, and lively entertainment in the barn and on the farm.

Flounder Brewing Co. is located at 2 Clerico Lane, Hillsborough. For more information visit flounderbrewing.com.
