What we’re about
Our group is dedicated to friends gathering and appreciating craft beer. We sample brews and socialize at local craft breweries, pubs, and tastings. Anyone who appreciates a well made beer should join!
A Real photo is required so people can find each other at events (sorry). This wasn't enforced in the past but it will be enforced for new members and as I see older members RSVP, I will be asking them to update their pictures. thx

See all- Oakflower Brewing Company - Reel Craft Passbook SeriesOakflower Brewing Company, Millington, NJ
This will be our first time going to Oakflower Brewing Company. They are in the Reel Craft passbook.
Oakflower prides itself on their lower ABV offerings, but if you’re an IPA lover, you’ll be happy here too.
Tap listOakflower's taproom is located at 1932 Long Hill Rd., Suite A in lovely Millington, NJ, directly across from the Millington train station. Feel free to park right on the street up and down Long Hill Rd. or in their main lot next to the post office. There is also a sizable NJ Transit lot just on the other side of the train tracks in case everything else is full.
Please note that dogs are not allowed. They often have food trucks on Friday night, although I don't see any information posted on their website. There is a Turkish restaurant across the street.Lastly, the tap room and terrace are on the smaller size. They ask for reservations for parties >10, so I'm going to cap our group size at 10.
