Ignite the party and extinguish your thirst at Bucket Brigade Brewery! The spark was started by twin brothers Karl and Kurt Hughes, career firefighters from Cape May County who started as volunteers in Erma. Bucket Brigade’s tasting room, located in downtown Cape May Court House in the old H B Christman & Son Auto Parts building, is spacious yet cozy, with firehouse accents such as helmets and buckets. Two garage doors roll up to expose views of Main Street, welcoming the summer breeze as you cool off with a cold beer in hand. The renovated building has an inviting atmosphere and holds many pieces of history to recognize some of the past businesses in Cape May County.
Bucket Brigade offers tours, tastings, apparel, and accessories. Before enticing your palate with Bucket Brigade’s unique flavors, be sure to take the tour and learn all about the brewing process. Then, let the friendly staff members help you figure out what brew is perfect for you. There are always at least eight beers on tap including one seasonal brew, all of which are constantly rotating to make room for new recipes. With a variety of ales, pilsners, and lagers, all beers are brewed with one thing in mind: extinguishing your thirst. Grab a pint of your preferred beer, or get a flight of four tastings to discover your flavor. Once you find it, purchase a growler to bring your favorite beer home!
