About Fort Nonsense Brewing Company
Fort Nonsense Brewing Company is a family-run nanobrewery and taproom on Franklin Rd in Randolph. Brothers Andrew, Thomas and James Aslanian opened it in Denville in January 2018 and moved to Randolph in October 2021. The name has roots in local history.
The beer list runs from classic ales and lagers to what the owners call nonsensical beers. Benedict Amber Traitor Ale and Saison Absurdité are two of the names you will see. Sours, a hard seltzer and a non-alcoholic nitro cold brew round out the taps.
The room is built to feel like a community center. Bring food in, play board games, read a book or settle in at the outdoor beer garden. Kids are welcome, and the entrance and parking lot are wheelchair accessible. Trivia runs twice a month, and a private events room is open for bookings.
