Brewery Review: Double Nickel Brewing Co in Pennsauken
Double Nickel Brewing Co is one of the latest breweries to come across South Jersey!
I visited this brewery pretty soon after they were opened and was blown away at how established this brewery already was.
For starters, this is one of the biggest breweries I’ve been to. Their tasting room is huge! It’s also very well done – organized, clean, clear design theme will a big bar. Their branding is everywhere! They really did a good job with it.
Like all breweries, you need to take a tour before you can try the beer. As we walked through, I got to see how big this brewery actually was!
I also found out on the tour that the facility used to be a gym, which would explain the size of the location. There is plenty of seating all around the brewery, and it would be a great space to rent out for parties. They even have their own spot for corn hole!
At the time I was there they only had their flagship beers on tap. It was $6 to try 4 beers on a flight.
I chose to try:
– Pilsner
– Vienna Lager
– Stout
– Strong Rye
Isn’t that a sharp looking flight? The tasting glasses were neat too. They looked like plastic cup, but they were in fact glass.
I was partial to their Pilsner and the Vienna Lager, but all four beers were great.
We ended up taking a growler of the Pilsner to go. All and all, a fantastic brewery visit.
I look forward to what this brewery will have on tap in the future!
