What is NJ Pint Day?
NJ Pint Day will take place on Thursday, June 4th, 2026 at more than 30 participating breweries across the state! Craft beer enthusiasts are invited to purchase a limited-edition collectible pint glass available exclusively at the participating brewery taprooms listed below. In partnership with BGNJ member breweries and Boelter Beverage, $1 from every glass will be donated to the Brewers Guild of New Jersey.

Cultivate the Garden State
The theme for our inaugural glass, Cultivate the Garden State, is dedicated to the elements that bring us back to our Jersey roots. Lead proudly by our state bird, The American Goldfinch carrying a hop leaf, because at the core of beer is where we call home. This year’s glass was designed by NJ native & designer Tom Schmitt.

Where can you get your own glass? Breweries throughout the state will each have the opportunity to order glasses to celebrate the occasion. Each glass supports the Brewers Guild of New Jersey, a non-profit organization that’s purpose is to promote and protect all breweries across the state. $1 from each glass will benefit the work we do every day to to keep advocating for our breweries through legislative action and marketing support.

2026 NJ Pint Day Glass:

Hey everyone,

The Brewers Guild of New Jersey here. We wanted to share with you what we've been working on for the last six or so months. Welcome to The Beer Garden State.

This rebrand means a lot to us, and we want to make sure we finally engage with the people who have supported craft beer in our state the way we should have been all along.

This year, we put together a Women's Brew Day where over 70 women in the industry, as well as some of our legislators at Tall Oaks Farm + Brew. We brewed a Valencia Orange Honey Lager, Among The Wildflowers, that will be released next month. Portions from the beer will be directly donated to the BGNJ.

We have NJ Pint Day on Thursday June 4th, where over 30 breweries throughout the state will have our limited edition glassware designed by Tom Schmitt, Twin Elephant's label designer.

These are just some of the ways we're trying to engage consumers, and we really are just getting started. We're calling this a bit of a "renaissance" for craft beer in our state, and we're looking at hosting more thoughtful beer festivals, an app in the works, and applying for grants to make sure we do everything the right way. Through the many iterations of the NJBA/BGNJ, we didn't have the bandwidth to support breweries across the state as best as we could when it came to promotion of our members to craft beer drinkers themselves.

While this is just the front-facing things we're getting done, we are even more committed to progressing the industry through lobbying. Some feats are easier than others, but our small team is dedicated to supporting this industry in a time where it feels like everything is working against them.

As a non-profit, every dollar we make gets put into our advocacy, marketing, and education for our industry. Its been a long time coming, but we hope that we can rebuild this community by engaging more with the people that keep us all going, and thats all of you.

If you'd like to support, we have merch available here.

Last thing, thank you for keeping the conversation about beer in our state alive. I've been a part of this industry for eight years, and I love not only the beer in it, but the community. We're listening, and we're excited to show you what we can do.

-Executive Director, Brie Devlin
