Wander Back Beerworks - Craft Malt Month Celebration / 9-26-24
Wander Back Beerworks in Vineland is joining 9 other South Jersey breweries to celebrate Craft Malt Month on Thursday, September 26, beginning at 6 pm. The ten breweries will participate in a tap takeover at Reunion Hall, 206 Haddon Avenue, Haddon Township, bringing their favorite beers brewed with grain from local craft maltster Rabbit Hill Farms. The event is free and open to the public.
The sustainability aspect is incredibly important to the folks at Wander Back Beerworks of Vineland, who spearheaded this event. “Sustainability is one of our driving pillars,” says Brian Hink, co-founder of Wander Back Beerworks. “Buying local grain is one of the biggest things we can do to cut down on our carbon footprint – we’re 15-20 minutes from Rabbit Hill.”
“It’s fresh,” says Chris Henke, one of the other co-founders of Wander Back. “Sometimes, it’s out of the kiln and into our beers that day. With some of the bigger guys, it may have been malted and kilned many months or even a year ago, then sat in storage, then taken more time to cross the ocean, sitting in the hold of a ship for a month, then sitting in storage again.”
Local Standards, one of three restaurants at Reunion Hall, will offer three open-faced sandwiches to complement the beers: cream cheese, smoked salmon, and capers; fig, gorgonzola, and bacon; and peanut butter and jelly.
“At the end of the day,” says Justin Vitti, co-owner of Wander Back, “it’s a celebration of grain.”
The following breweries, distilleries, and bakeries will be in attendance: Black Rooster Food, Brooklyn, NY; Double Nickel Brewing Company, Pennsauken; Dr. Brewlittle’s Beer Co., Maple Shade; Independent Spirits Distillery, Woolwich Township; Kane Brewing Company, Atlantic Highlands; Screamin’ Hill Brewing, Cream Ridge; The Seed, Atlantic City; Tanner Brewing Company, Haddon Heights; Tonewood Brewing Company, Oaklyn; Twin Elephant Brewing Company, Chatham; Wander Back Beerworks, Vineland and Whims Brewing, Atco.
