About Gearblock Brewing Company
Gearblock Brewing Company is a craft micro-brewery with a tasting room on Franklin Turnpike in Waldwick. The name comes from the owners' love of cars. A gearbox, or gearblock, harnesses an engine's power and sends torque to the wheels.
The beer list covers ales, lagers, stouts, sours, barrel aged beers and fruit beers. Pale ales and Vienna lagers make an easy introduction to craft beer. Specialty beers are imperial in style, and only a few core beers are always available.
Small batches mean the taps keep rotating. The tasting room has an industrial charm, and you can drink in the room or take beer home in crowlers. The entrance, parking lot, restroom and seating are all wheelchair accessible. The room can be reserved for private events.
