In New Jersey, there were 168 breweries in 2024, ranking 20th nationally but placing 41st for breweries per capita at 2.4 per 100,000 adults, according to the Brewers Association, which represents the nation’s more than 9,000 breweries.

The industry generated an economic impact of about $1.579 million, or $227 per capita. Brewers in the state produced 180,541 barrels of craft beer annually, with production equating to 0.8 gallons per adult — the 45th highest in the nation.

Breweries in and around Morristown include:

• Glenbrook Brewery, 95 Morris St, Morristown
• Revolution, A Social Brew House, 9 South St, Morristown
• Autodidact Beer, 1745 RT 10 E, Suite 6, Morris Plains
• Double Tap Brewing, 50 Parsippany Rd, Whippany
• Twin Elephant Brewing Company, 13 Watchung Ave, Chatham

The U.S. craft beer industry saw a “year of correction” in 2025, with production falling about 5.1 percent to roughly 21.9 million barrels as brewers faced softer demand and a challenging market, according to the Brewers Association’s 2025 annual report.

The number of breweries also declined, and most segments posted losses, though craft beer still outperformed the overall beer market and slightly increased its market share. Despite the downturn, the report pointed to early signs of stabilization, including fewer closures and continued resilience among some brewers, suggesting the industry may be nearing a more sustainable “new normal.”
