Location So. May seem like you are just headed to the back of a random industry park. You are. And that’s ok. It works. Beer With 12 taps flowing they really have something for all tastes. That said. More offerings in the brown, English, and porter end of the spectrum. Which is my fave so yay me! Flights of 4, 8, or all 12. The printed list and descriptions are great. But the Folks behind the bar are still the best resource. More there later. Personal fav is the Body and soul. A «Wee Heavy» that is amazeballs. Music Equal here to the love of beer is love of music. All the beers have a blues themed name as well as the brewery itself. Was here for their Blues Festival and was blown away by the quality of music. People What can I say? There is absolutely no substitute for being around people that love what they are doing. Ron creates amazing beers and Danielle keeps the front of the house a fun place to be. Food A well curated rotation of local/regional food trucks keeps it interesting and appetizing. And if you are here off hours Danielle will help you find good delivery.

Open since 2015, this brewery is much fun and has a great line up of 12 – 13 originals. It is nicely just off HWY1 by about 4 miles. Worth a stop. Like all great breweries it’s on the edge of town in an industrial park. The Unilocal directions are fine but it’s a quick left before the water company building off of Artisan. It looks like you are going into the Walmart Distribution center… but you are not. About 12 beers… there were a lot of darks including 3 imperials… an aged vanilla been stout, Russian imperial stout and honey imperial porter. All excellent. Tried two iPad also. The double and regular American. At 100 and 70IBU respectively. A marzen, lager and Pilsner too. Nice clean space with guitar décor. Indoor corn hole. Out door food vendor. I’d go back!

Great place. I was told by a friend to stop by and try out their large list of beers. I am glad I did. They have a wide assortment and I am sure you will find a favorite or two. We plan to come back on a Friday or Saturday night whenthey have a food truck there. Great friendly staff that makes you feel very welcome.

There is a beer here for everyone’s palette. Love this place. The bartenders are always smiling and friendly. Ron, the owner and craft-beer extraordinaire is accessible to talk to about the different beer on tap. He loves his job and you can tell! We are here at least once a week. It makes me happy to see a local brewery doing so well. My husband and I love to support small business and it’s easy to sing the praises of this local craft brewery.

Anyone who rates this brewery under 4 stars, doesn’t know what real beer is. Not only is the beer painstakingly crafted, but the people here are awesome!

I met them at A Brew Story and was invited to the blues fest that they had this past weekend. It made me happy to see that the owners were so passionate about the beer and very friendly. The beers were wonderful and all modestly priced at $ 5!!! No matter the alcohol volume! They had food trucks serving different kinds of food and music blaring. I love this place! Too bad I live in Bear, or I’d head down there more often. It was awesome!

Blue Earl’s has a wide variety of superb beers, says me who is traveling the US visiting breweries. I am amazed that each was so good and that they were all brewed by a single individual. At $ 5 a pint and 85-oz samples for $ 18, the price point is very reasonable(we’ve been seeing $ 7 pints regularly in these parts). Snacks and blues music made us want to linger, but alas they close a bit early(probably for the best). Each beer is named after a song; you get the history of a song along with the beer description. The brewer played in a(few?) band. Talk about a talented guy.

Located within 2 miles of my house. I’m an unofficial beer snob. Came here skeptical but open-minded. Left over satisfied. Wide range of beer syles and ABV. I met Danielle and Bob during my visit both very nice. I’m always unsure of new breweries with their experience and passion for brewing as opposed to jumping on the craft beer band wagon trend to make easy money. Blue Earl brewing tastes and feels passionate in the right way and I’m proud to say they are great example of what this area should and could be.

I’ve been here a couple of times now, and it’s a nice place to sample a beer or two. The room is large with plenty of seating and the staff are friendly and helpful. The beers on tap are well identified(I like to know the IBU’s and ABV’s and such) and diverse. I like most of the beers I’ve tried here, but none that I’d want to take home with me… well until last evening when I tried the«Rock Me Baby» imperial stout… that stuff is real good. The food vender last evening was Delaware Egg Roll and we liked their offerings as well. ROCKMEBABY!!! I will return for another, thank you very much. Might even add another star if I find another beer that I really like there.

We stumbled upon Blue Earl Brewing kind of by accident and were not disappointed. The tasting bar is in a subdivided into the brewery and the décor was really inviting. Blues music, large wooden bar and smiling bartenders greeted us with pretzels. The beers were all excellent, and unique in their own way. The tasting was on the higher price point, but we did not mind lending a few extra dollars to assist this startup brewery. I highly recommend stopping in for a beer or 12

Enjoyed a great selection of 12 different beers. Owner and staff all very friendly. Come Thirsty! Everything we tasted had excellent flavor and balance. You will not be disappointed with these beers. They have a true passion for craft beer!

This was a great find from the guys over at painted stave distillery. Upon entering, you are greeted by the smell of fresh hops and paint… which may not entice some, but those who know, know freshness counts in brewing. After chatting with the bartender about what brought us here, my girlfriend and I(the crazy jersey girl who also wrote a review) ordered our flights. I ordered an array of brews which all pleased. There’s a beer variety for every drinker out there from novice to pro. As we sipped our flights we struck up a conversation with the owner who was an average joe doing what he loves… making money. Lol jk, he was more than quick to share his experiences with other brewers in what I describe as the friendliest competitive spirit around. In summation, don’t deny yourself the pleasure of drinking a beer(or 2 or 3 or…) here. It’s worth the visit, even from philly.

This place is awesome! Has only been open for a couple of months but the owners have been brewing for a while. They have 12 beers on tap and a great variety from saisons to stouts. The staff is really friendly and is willing to hang out and talk about beer. Great music playing in the tasting room and all of the beers are named after blues and jazz songs. They have some really solid beers and a lot of very sessionable beers with citrus hops that are very drinkable for summer. Pretzels on the bar available for snacking. A lot going on here including live music and food trucks on the weekend. Definitely worth a visit!
