Great selection of beers,fun environment and good service. If in the area, it's worth a visit.

Awesome brewery! Love the fun vibes to nostalgic pop culture touch tones of a few decades ago, especially Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles references on merchandise. Their new long bar counter added last summer is a nice touch, and I hope they continue expanding on over the years.

JERSEY CITY: we are saying this in the best, most amazing way possible, Departed Soles is a brewery and tap room that feels like you're in the middle of a video game or cartoon that takes place in a subway. It's a place you have to visit to understand and we are so happy we did to experience the uniqueness. The tasting room is comfortably cozy and leashed and friendly dogs are allowed inside! There is also an outdoor space. There are 14 beers are tap, a few more in cans, gluten free options, and those that contain lactose are clearly labeled. We love the name and the flavor of the "This meeting shoulda been an email" wheat beer. You can take cans to-go and fill up a growler. Sit at the bar or a table and watch the game on their TVs, you can bring your own food, and they validate parking for the LAZ lot on First Street. They have great merchandise and we scored a t-shirt that says Can I Pet Your Dog?

This place was sooo cool! A great theme and vibe. The guy working inside was so helpful too. And they have a great beer selection

I am not a beer drinker 90% of the time, but I LOVE this place. The flights are server on a miniature skateboard (penny board?) and make for a cool photo. My flight included the April Oat'Neill (an oatmeal stout), Ego is not your Amigo, and Jersey Juice I believe? One was orange flavored and very easy to drink. They have some snacks available like fruit snacks and chex mix, but if you do get hungry, there is an Italian bakery adjacent to them. Take advantage of the board game section! Such a fun place to visit on the weekend with friends.

Departed Soles Brewing is a gluten free brewery which I personally enjoy these kind of breweries because they don't have the bloat factor like most breweries have with their beers. I also have mentioned before that breweries without gluten have gotten it down pat pretty well on making enjoyable and appealing beers without gluten. I can't say that's the case with breweries that make only non-alcoholic beer but maybe as time goes on something good might come along. For the beer I tried from Depared Soles Steve and I shared the Go Big or Go Home beer. This is a Belgian style beer which we liked and it indeed had banana and clove. Now sometimes those two things can be overkill with their flavoring in a beer but it does make a difference as to who makes it. In this case it was very well balanced those two flavors and were an asset to the beer rather than flavors dominating all others within the beer.

Another awesome find this year with Departed Soles Brewing Company! Located in JC and within walking distance of several food spots, the brewery is away from the crowd. On a Friday evening, my group was able to get a table quickly and place our orders with the staff. There's a great selection of gluten-free and non-gf beer to choose from. The staff were awesome and helpful with us making selections, especially since I opted for a skateboard flight. The music and vibe of the place is beyond chill, it's a great spot to hang out with friends or have a date. There's only a small selection of snacks available, so it's a good idea to eat before arriving or plan to after somewhere else.

Great first visit to Departed Soles! We've purchased 4packs from local 6pack shops and were excited to visit the actual brewery. The main reason is the quality gluten free beer they are producing. Our son is GF and the Departed Soles beer is some of the best tasting GF beer around! The vibe of the brewery is relaxed and welcoming. The staff was great-friendly and helpful. One of the owners/brewers was seated at a table near us and we enjoyed chatting with him for a while about the brewery and craft beer in general. Even though it was our first visit, we were welcomed like regulars. In addition to the tasty GF beer, the non-gf selections are all solid! We both left with 4 packs and growlers! Definitely worth the hour+ trip!

Came here with my boyfriend Saturday for the flight of beers and I had a glass of the Spongehop Sourpants lmaooo. LOVE the name and it tasted so good!! The prices are on point!! You can see where they make the beer. The owners partner in business spoke with us and he was very nice. He explained their process and how it's all done. They've been there for 7 years! They serve the flight of beers on a skateboard. So fun! My boyfriend likes IPA's and he tried 4 theirs. Keep in mind they are a microbrew, which is so cool. He likes the trash one haha. I thought they were all delicious! The fruity one was my favorite, it's called good drift. Please come support this small business!!! They're worth it and I want them to stay. :) They also have amazing prices!!!
