Montclair Brewery to offer outdoor space for beer lovers

The owners of the Montclair Brewery are doing what they can to offer outdoor areas so that they can reopen for business.

The brewery will use the front of the building as a paved patio area, and the owners say they want to convert the parking lot into an outdoor space as well.

“We love our taproom, but we know we all have to be safe and if being safe means outside seating, then we’re all in,” says co-owner Denise Ford-Sawadogo.

The brewery also hosts virtual happy hours over Zoom. Some of the regulars call in to talk, drink beer and enjoy music from local musicians. West Orange native Rostafa performed at last week’s happy hour.
