Ocean Township Breweries & Craft Drinks | NJDrinks

Skip to main content

Ocean Township, in Monmouth County, sits a few miles inland from the Jersey Shore, flanked by Asbury Park to the south and connecting to Long Branch along the northern Shore corridor. The township is primarily suburban but occupies a central position in Monmouth County’s expanding craft beverage landscape, which has grown significantly over the past decade as breweries have opened throughout the county from the Shore communities to the more rural interior.

Craft brewing is the dominant format in this part of Monmouth County, with taprooms favoring casual environments suited to the area’s mix of year-round residents and seasonal Shore visitors. Ocean Township’s location along the Route 35 and Route 66 corridors makes it accessible from both the Garden State Parkway and the Shore itself, putting it within a short drive of several other Monmouth County craft beverage destinations in Asbury Park, Neptune, and Tinton Falls.
