Kenilworth's Two Ton Brewing Holds Official Ribbon Cutting Ceremony Under New Ownership

Two Ton Brewing recently held a ribbon cutting ceremony with Kenilworth Mayor Linda Karlovitch and members of the Greater Union Township Chamber of Commerce, shortly after its official grand opening on July 11. The brewery is located at 730 Federal Avenue, Kenilworth, New Jersey.

Megan Valenti has taken over ownership and operations of the craft brewery. Known for its welcoming atmosphere and passion for quality craft beer, Two Ton Brewing Co has established itself as a destination where friends, families, neighbors, and beer enthusiasts gather. Under Megan's leadership, the brewery will continue honoring that tradition while introducing fresh energy, creative ideas, and an even stronger connection to the local community.

Valenti decided to become her own boss after her dog Charlee became ill at work, prompting her to leave. She stated: "I'm incredibly excited to continue the story of Two Ton Brewery while bringing my own creativity and passion into the experience. This brewery has already built something special, and my goal is to continue growing that sense of community while creating new opportunities for people to gather, connect, and enjoy outstanding craft beer."

Megan is philanthropic and hosts an annual turkey tray with proceeds benefiting the Michael J. Fox Foundation. Guests can look forward to community-centered events including Trivia Night and karaoke, along with new games for all to enjoy. The brewery is family friendly and currently has 13 beers on tap upstairs and four downstairs in a 1920s themed library speakeasy, with to-go cans available. Guests may bring their own food to enjoy while having beer.

Two Ton Summer Hours are Monday–Thursday 3PM–8PM, Friday 2PM–10PM, Saturday 1PM–10PM, and Sunday 1PM–8PM. Chamber CEO James Masterson stated: "Members of the Kenilworth Chamber (an affiliate of the Greater Union Township Chamber of Commerce) and Mayor Linda Karlovitch gathered in force to welcome the new owners of Two Ton Brewery to our business community."
