Lambertville is a nice town, always busy on the weekend, with plenty of people bicycling if the weather is nice. The River Horse brewery is small, and the staff is extremely friendly. For $1, sample 4 or 5 beers, and you can tour the brewery too. I recommend buying some bottles of their beers to go. River Horse beers tend to be big, bold and full of flavor... not for the light-beer drinker. Hop-a-lot-amus (8.5%) is highly hopped and truly excellent. Belgian Triple (10%), Hop Hazard, and Hip-o-lantern are all stong, delicious beers. There is no food service at the brewery, but there are plenty of nearby places to enjoy. p.s... Right across the river is another brewpub (Triumph) worth visiting.

Brewery is located in a few nice town on lambertville with a few nice watering holes in walking distance. Plenty of parking right outside. Iv'e been there twice, once was self guided and the second on a saturday they had a tour guide. Tour was good and short, when youv'e been on dozens, they all seem the same. You get 5 4oz samples at the end for a dollar and can buy 6 packs there.

One of the more interesting tours I've been on, but only because it was self-guided. Instead of someone walking you around, you follow the ropped-off path around and follow along with what's going on in a binder. It's a pretty neat system.

They do have a 6 (at the time) beer sample for $1 I think after the tour and you can try some of their beers as some tables in the gift shop.

It's a small brewery in a very old but interesting brick building. Plenty of parking right at the brewery makes it a perfect destination on a North/Central Jersey beer tour.
