After 10 Years, This NJ Brewery Has Closed, But Another Is Already Moving In

You know that phrase "when one door closes, another opens?" I tend to think of that a lot while writing about New Jersey's restaurant and bar scene. So often, we see a bar or restaurant that we love close its doors, only to have something totally different take its place a few months later.

This happens with New Jersey breweries as well, and after a ten-year run, a pretty unique New Jersey Brewery has closed its doors for good, and another brewery now plans on taking its place.

Eight And Sand Beer Company Has Closed Its Doors For Good In Woodbury, NJ

According to NJ.com, Eight And Sand Beer Company has poured its final tap over the weekend and is now closed for good.

Eight And Sand Was Unique For Its Low Alcohol, European Style Beers

Located at 1003 N. Evergreen Avenue in Woodbury, what made Eight and Sand Beer Company unique in the craft beer world was that they brewed beer that followed European traditions and was lower in alcohol content than your typical craft beers.

Eight and Sand Beer may have closed its doors, but that doesn't mean that there won't be a brewery in that location.
