About Needle Creek Brewery
Needle Creek Brewery is a working farm brewery on Titus Mill Road in Pennington. The taproom sits in a barn built in 1713, with farm animals and open countryside all around. The brewery grows its own barley in its own fields.
The brewery says it is one of a select few using the original Peter Austin Brick Kettle Brewing System. The line-up includes Farmer John's Lager, Rusty Rooster Vienna lager and Heffer Weiss. There is also a sour called Puckering Pig and a hard seltzer made on the farm.
Kids are always welcome, with a play corner, a Gaga pit and plenty of room to roam. Dogs are not allowed because the chickens and mini pigs roam free, though service dogs are fine. The beer garden has fire pits and patio heaters for cooler days.
Free trivia and live music fill the events calendar, and food trucks rotate through. Outside food is welcome too. The entrance and the parking lot are both wheelchair accessible.
