Dark City Brewing - Asbury Park, NJ

Dark City Brewing lies only about four blocks north of Asbury Park Brewing, but those blocks bring it much closer to the wealthy residential end of Main St, which no doubts greatly helps to bring in the demographic with the disposable income that craft brewers are targeting.

Dark City occupies a large street corner location, with air-conditioned seating inside for around 50, with some further trestle tables outside on the patio.

I arrived to find just a couple of customers at around 1pm, but within an hour the place was packed, and the staff were working hard to keep up with demand.

They had fourteen draft beers available, across a very broad landscape, including stouts, IPAs, Pales and several innovative sours. Not all of the beers worked, but most of them did, and this is a great place to visit if you really want to challenge your tastebuds to something a bit out of the ordinary.

It was great to see this business really thriving, and I will definitely be back next time I am in the area.
