Vault Brewing Easton is Coming Fall of 2024

Big news for craft beer fans, for Vault Brewing fans, and for people living in Easton PA — Vault Brewing is growing and expanding and coming to Easton PA in the fall of 2024! The new location marks Vault Brewing’s second location, but their sixth business overall operating under the Vault Brewing & Companies corporate umbrella.

The new location will be downtown Easton, right in the heart of the city, and just a few blocks away from the Crayola factory. Located at 225 Ferry St, Easton, PA 18042, it is just a 1 minute drive from the Crayola Experience (as you can see in this map: Crayola Factory to Vault Brewing Easton).

Vault Brewing Easton Announcement

The following announcement was posted earlier by Vault Brewing’s social media:

BIG NEWS OUT OF YARDLEY

We are super excited to spill the beer on our new location in downtown Easton, PA, projected to open its doors to the public in late October, 2024.

This new brewpub is located in the heart of downtown Easton, only a few blocks from the Crayola Experience and other local shops and restaurants. The building is spacious and beautiful, with an open and industrial feeling, and it also has an outdoor patio space. Although it’s not an old bank or financial building, there is something undeniably “us” inside of this space, and we are excited to welcome it into the fold.

At Vault Brewing Easton, we intend to bring you the same quality craft beer you’ve come to know and love from us, as well as a local and seasonal menu from Chef Will. You may recognize some of the classic items we are known for on our new menu, but keep an eye out for many new and exciting dishes yet to come.

This new spot marks Vault Brewing’s second location, but the sixth business operating under the Vault Brewing & Companies umbrella.

Follow along with us to stay up to date on our progress, get opening announcements, and to peep that new menu: @vaultbrewing.easton

We are so very excited for this next chapter of Vault Brewing, and we can’t wait to see many familiar faces in this new space and also to meet and make new friends in the area.

Böser Geist Brewing Announces Closure

Add another brewery to the list for 2024. This time its Böser Geist Brewing out of Easton, PA. Located at 1250 Simon Blvd k100, Easton, PA 18042. They just announced their difficult decision to close in the upcoming weeks via Facebook and social media just a bit ago today (August 16th, 2024).

This marks one of the many breweries in Pennsylvania that is closing this year, and over dozens across the country. (Just this week upcoming will be Mellow Mink Brewing’s last days of operation.)

Announcement

The following comes from Böser Geist Brewing’s Facebook account:

Happy Friday Everyone!

As much of you know we’ve been putting out some amazing stuff for you guys over the past couple months and rearranging some things in hopes of stepping it up! We’re really grateful to our new brewer Paul and everything he’s put out thus far to date. James has been working out front with staff and in the back with the kitchen to make your visit as memorable as possible and it’s something as a team we’ve always strived to do. That’s why this next part doesn’t come easy.

We’ve had some battles in recent months that are just too hard to ignore and/or overcome which puts us into the situation that we’ve had to make. But before we get into that we wanted to thank all of our loyal guests and fans. Over the years we’ve grown and you’ve grown with us. We’ve made some lifetime friends and built relationships as well as watched so many people come into our home celebrate their special moments! We’ve had weddings, graduations, reunions, bridal and baby showers. We’ve shared in that special day as a stop for a bachelor or bachelorette party. We’ve had birthdays young and old, wedding parties, engagements, and many first dates! We’ve had the privilege of supporting many organizations including Breast Cancer Awareness- Men Wear Pink campaign, local youth organizations, fun runs, and 5k’s.

The reasons above make the next part not so easy. We are coming up to our final weeks. It hasn’t been an easy decision to make, but it’s for the best and it sets up a path for the next steps!

That said we thank all of you from the bottom of our hearts! You’ve all made this trip pretty spectacular and we still have some things up our sleeve we’ll be releasing in the next couple days. So please stop in before the end of the month and give support to our team and James and Paul!

We love you all!

And although Boser Geist may be saying good bye – you haven’t seen the last of us by far…love James, Paul & the AMAZING staff

Controversy

There has been some controversy following the brewery. Nothing officially reported in the different presses, but reports of things involving other breweries, namely their beers and kegs and recipes. Outside of insider trade talk, there has been no official discussion or reports made. There was also an alleged incident involving Seven Sirens Brewing Company and a somewhat vague-ish Facebook / social media posting about them chasing customers from one brewery to another, nothing again substantiated or claimed against Böser Geist Brewing but heavily implied. Böser Geist Brewing did not respond when asked for comments on these issues.

Two Rivers Brewing Stars in J.G. Wentworth’s New National Commercial

B. Kline — Tue, 12 Dec 2023 13:44:58 +0000

J.G. Wentworth Commercial starring Easton’s Two Rivers Brewing Company

Call J.G. Wentworth

Its your money and you need it now.

So who does J.G. Wentworth call when they need – a commercial spot – apparently they call Two Rivers Brewing Company in Easton, Pennsylvania. They are the stars of the latest national commercial for J.G. Wentworth.

They filmed on location at their brewery in 542 Northampton St, Easton, PA 18042.

You can find their latest commercial here at J.G. Wentworth’s Official YouTube Channel: J.G. Wentworth commercial. Or click the play – video button above.

The jingle is so distinct and so known you might have already even seen the commercial, not really paying attention, and hummed along with it or even singing it while looking down at your phone, but if you looked up, and paid attention to the screen you would instantly recognize it as the Two Rivers location.

They have bartenders wearing their shirts, its the iconic building, its the bar you’ve probably sat at and had a pint, the tables you might’ve gone on a date at and had your dinner or lunch. Everything was filmed on location in Easton for the commercial.

How’d It Come About

So why are the people in Easton’s premier brewery – Two Rivers Brewing Company – singing the J.G. Wentworth jingle on national TV?

It’s a long-winded answer…
Dan Hertzog – the director of the commercial

Dan Hertzog is the head of production company In The Wee Hours and is the director behind the J.G. Wentworth commercial. It began airing fall of 2023 and has been airing nationally; typically running during sporting events, sitcoms, and news programs on the major networks.

The story begins when Hertzog moved from Los Angeles to southern New Jersey in January 2020. That summer, he was hired by the Lehigh Valley’s resident auteur Daniel Roebuck to serve as cinematographer on the latter’s film “Lucky Louie,” which was shot around the Lehigh Valley in the fall. That gave Hertzog some familiarity with the area, which was furthered when he teamed up with Roebuck to shoot his next Lehigh Valley-set film, “The Hail Mary,” which is in post-production.

In between those two shoots, Hertzog, who’s worked in the commercial business before, was back in L.A. and connected with J.G. Wentworth. In 2022, the financial company asked Hertzog if he’d be interested in rebooting its famous 2008 commercial that featured a theater troupe of vikings singing the earworm of a jingle.
Call 877-BEER-NOW? Two Rivers stars in J.G. Wentworth’s new national commercial – Lehigh Valley Live

A great boon and advertisement piece for Two Rivers Brewing, especially given the national exposure this commercial creates.

When discussing why he picked Two Rivers Brewing Company, Herzog:

As soon as I saw it, it was my first choice. In my mind, that was the perfect bar. … Anything that’s well-maintained and taken care of and has the character of yesteryear is going to be something. And when I walked in there, it was beautifully maintained. The window light is a big attraction as a cinematographer, the production design aspect is just one big, open space with two pillars to shoot around. It plays really well to the concept.
Dan Herzog – Director of the commercial

In addition to the commercial that is airing nationally, there is several 15 second clip spots that J.G. Wentworth also has of the commercial and the location. All of which can be found at their YouTube Channel: J.G. Wentworth’s YouTube channel.

People have been like ‘hey, that’s Two Rivers. It’s been pretty neat.
Wendy Carrolls – General Manager of Two Rivers Brewing Company

The brewery was also featured in the film ‘The Florentine’ in 1999. Starring Hal Holbrook, Luke Perry, Virginia Madsen, Jeremy Davies, Chris Penn, and Mary Stuart Masterson.
