what is new jersey craft beer?

New Jersey Craft Beer’s mission is to provide craft beer fans in New Jersey with a resource for finding current beer-happenings. While the website can be used as a digital map for finding beer, it also makes potential customers aware of the NJCB Business Partners involved with New Jersey Craft Beer through the website, social media and events.

what’s the NJCB story?

December 2010

hello, njcb

Mike Kivowitz started New Jersey Craft Beer as a personal resource that he turned into a powerful, successful public resource in a few short, beer filled years. Mike lived in North Jersey, close to NYC, for 10+ years and after meeting a beautiful women decided to get married and move to the area where she grew up. Traveling daily to and from his job resulted in exploring new places for craft beer. Mike assumed if he didn’t know about these places, no one else did. So he built it for himself and others.

After a few months of planning and a few hundreds hours of programming, Mike designed, developed and launched New Jersey Craft Beer.
