What can I say about Angry Erik brewing? Well, the people who operate the brewery are great people. The atmosphere Angry Erik has created is very cool. The beer is awesome! You can tell a LOT of heart, not to mention, blood, sweat & tears goes into making their beer. If you haven’t been to Angry Erik, you’re definitely missing out. Run, don’t walk to Angry Erik, well, unless you live walking distance from the brewery, then, walk! Cheers!!’

We’ve been wanting to come here for some time, finally the time was right, following a nice hike in the area. Located in a small office park it is easily passed by. The quick tour offered by one of the employees was informative, quick, and entertaining. We enjoyed our flight so much we picked up a growler for later. What made this such an enjoyable stop was the other customers who chatted us up. We got some good dinner recommendations. We look forward to our return and finding Angry Eric at our local spots.

Love, love, love their beers! I had only had one or 2 of their brews before heading up to the brewery and it was well worth the drive. We met Erik and he was so great to talk to. If you are a beer drinker and looking for something to do check out this small, fun spot!

Love this brewery! Bring your lunch/snacks and have an indoor picnic while enjoying great beer. The selections change regularly. Right now my favorites are the Dainty Viking and Dragon Booty. Friendly staff and fun atmosphere. Cheers!

Great place, owners/staff are fantastic people. The beers are solid and it’s nice to see a great little craft brewery in Sussex county. Always make it a point to stop in and grab a pint. You can bring in your own food too which is awesome!

Great little brewery cool atmosphere and good beer. Really enjoyed everything! The Cran Beret — cranberry ale was so refreshing! The Bourbon Barrel-Aged Dragon Booty — BBA Imperial Porter was so delicious! The taste of macaroons of the end was so delightful and surprising enjoyable! Looking forward to going back with my growler! I was mad I forgot mine at home!

The«tour» was fine, the two employees on site were knowledgable and talkative. The beer is fine as well. The offerings were forgettable. Overall, it doesn’t stand out in a positive, or negative way.

Another entry in the rising number of brew pubs, Angry Eriks offers a small but enjoyable selection of craft brews. Their«Dainty Viking» is sessionable and a jalapeño offering is worth a try. No food here(you can bring in) and your only other drink choice is water — the sole focus is the beer. There is a short required brewery(back room tour) before you can indulge in your first visit, but it’s short and sweet. Friendly staff, clean and affordable, it’s worth a stop in.

We attended Angry Erik’s one year anniversary event. The beer was delicious and the service was good, despite the fact that they were jam packed. We brought apps for snacking on and sat at the picnic table in the bar area. We got growlers to take home and finish socializing at a friends house. Wonderful event. We’ll definitely go back!

Big fan of the variety… Heidi and Erics passion is evident in every sip… if you cannot find something you like… drink a Zima

I had forgotten about this new brewery. until we drove past it on the way to run an errand. It’s a Sunday. It’s noon. Do we go back? Of course! This is a great little brewery. If getting to talk directly to the brewers is your thing, you’re in luck. Our server behind the bar was also very informative and able to answer any of our questions. They had 8 of their beers on tap for tasting or pints as well as growler and grunt fills. They do not bottle their beers as of yet but they are on tap at a number of local bars(and you can purchase half barrels and sixtels plus a keg deposit for your next party). The man and I each bought a sampler of 4 beers($ 6 for 4 samples) and mixed it up so that we got to taste all 8. Overall they were very good, though some were more memorable than others(ahem, the H2Ale… so good). We were given a brief tour of the small facility by one of the brewers which was a great opportunity to ask questions. We bought a grunt(32 oz) of their Viva Verde(Jalapeño IPA) to take back with us and our server made sure to add slices of jalapeños with seeds to give the beer a spicy kick). I really enjoyed my first visit here and I can’t wait to see what the future holds for them!

Great beer! Great owners! Great concept! The area needed this!!! Their ales are pretty awesome and I’ve never had an off flavored beer any time I’ve gone in. Their selection is always killer and of high quality.

Great little family brewery with the delicious standard beers. There weren’t many seasonals when I was there in August, but I think they have a few coming out soon. Really liked the Summit Up IPA. It was quite quaffable for a summer hike on the AT. Definitely stopping by again, next time I’m up in god’s country. I hope there next beer is called«People and Nature Together». Never found out why Erik is so angry.

Yes, location is odd, but upon asking the owners why they chose it, it makes perfect sense. Every time we visit, we leave happy(and with a growler or 2). We have tried every beer that they have brewed since opening and I have loved each one. They have a BYO Food policy and indoor picnic benches that you can sit down and have a few pints and eat whatever you bring. It’s a really awesome concept, something that Sussex county(especially the high point region) was missing. I am happy they are here and glad to see they are doing well! You can even get some of their beers at Salt and Mohawk house! Yay! AND the owners are super nice as well as the employees. love love love it!

In spite of the industrial park setting, the owners brew beer that tastes as good as it gets, and they only opened in February, 2014! Millpond Drive is off State Route 94 between Lafayette and US Route 206. There isn’t much signage from the front and with parking is in the back and alongside the building, a first timer would think the place closed. Entry is through the front, and warm and friendly staff helped describe available beers. Sample flights are reasonably priced as are glasses. Everyone seemed to have a growler to bring in for filling. Anyone purchasing beer for consumption must go on a tour of the brewery. I’m not a brewer, so the guide was informative and gave me background on the process. The Double IPA was my favorite, but not sure this is always on the menu.

Everything I look for in a small brewery: Great beer, nice location, and friendly staff. Beer selection is a nice mix of solidly brewed beer and creative recipes. Paulinskill Pale Ale is a great, refreshing beer. They nailed it – perfect after a hike! And the unique spices in the Three-Ball porter make for a tasty brew. Atmosphere: has that warehouse-y feel that I love in small breweries. Nice wood bar and tables around. Everyone having a good time. Brewery itself was very clean. No food, but they have menus sitting around to order stuff in from local places. Also, although the owners are dog lovers, they don’t allow dogs inside. Not a big deal for me(I just won’t bring pup next time), but good for others to know. Great to see such good beer being brewed in Sussex County! Will be returning.

Brand spanking new brewery that just opened this February! The brewery is so new, that their not even selling bottles yet, but soon! However, the bar is open for pints, growler fills and tastings. They got a cool little setup; nothing fancy or too complicated, but it works. When you walk in, they have a bar amd some high tables. Plus they got additional seating in the back, which is right in the actual brewery. The staff are totally cool and highly knowledgeable on beer and beer making. My brother and I are getting into home brewing and the guy working at the bar gave us a lot of useful tips. I had a few beers while stopping in to get my growler filled. The«Hop The Fence IPA» was my favorite; not too hoppy, yet not under hopped. The«3-ball Porter» was another good one; not to overbearing like some porters can be. The«Paulinskill Pale Ale» was also pretty good. I didn’t get to try their Stout; maybe next time! They offer a «VIP Growler club» program, for forty dollars a year gets you a dollar off pints and two dollar off growler fills, so if you live in the area it’s totally worth it to take advantage of it. Next time I’m in the area, I know where I’m stopping by to get a drink.
