Just threw an absolutely AMAZING birthday bash for an Uncle who has been talking up this place for literally years and I honestly can't say enough good things about the team here! From long-distance coordination of the event (I am in Virginia) through execution the day of -- Shannon, Brittney and Jim Yergey himself were absolutely wonderful to work with and made the day so special for us. It was an absolute bash and oh yeah... the beer was good too ;) If I wasn't throwing a party I would have tasted them all, but the general consensus from the guests was the beer was spot on! Of what I did try, they were expertly-crafted from the seriously refreshing Kolsch and Session IPA to the Hefe that struck all the right banana and clove notes! A MUST stop the next time you are in Allentown :) read more

Yergey Brewing - Breweries Near Me - Emmaus, Pennsylvania

Yergey Brewing is top notch. Their draft menu is vast and varied, and the vibes are unmatched. Jim Yergey, the namesake and face of the brewery, introduced himself while we enjoyed our pours at the bar. They were celebrating Christmas in July, and I love a good theme. There were Santa hats, inflatable snowmen, and an ice cream truck - what more could you want? I had the Brown Ale and the Dunkelweizen - both delicious. My boyfriend shared his Wee Heavy and Bitter - again, winning beers. Yergey's was not on our radar when we ventured through Emmaus, but it was the highlight of our random day trip to Lehigh Valley. In the spirit of Christmas, we purchased a bottle of the 2021 Holiday Beer - a doppelbock called Decorator. The bartender even gave us a complimentary matching Christmas Ornament when she overheard that I collect them! If I lived closer to Yergey Brewing, I'd be here once a week. The people were welcoming and the beer was delicious. I'm definitely keen to come back! In read more

Always a great place to relax and have a beer. Food trucks vary but they have all been amazing and it's nice to have a selection. You can sit inside, in the tent on the side of the building or on the Adirondack chairs in front and watch the traffic drive by. Great selection of amazing beers. read more

Yergey served their beers at The Office Quarters networking event and they were wonderful! Great service, great beer!

I kind of like this place. Too much like a cafeteria for me. The food trucks are cool. They have good food. The owner is a really nice guy. I'm glad they moved to their new spot. Other than that I'd say their beer is Ça va. Not sure what else to say. read more

The owner is very nice and involved in the business, they also seem to be very active in the community. That's just the cherry on the top of the beer being amazing! read more

On my second visit to Allentown, my girlfriend brought me here to make friends with a young professionals meetup group. I just had one beer (Anna Banana) which was tasty and smooth. There is seating outside for a nice day and some seating for about 25 people at the most. There is plenty of parking in the surrounding Lot and space for cornhole or other lawn games to play with friends. Staff seems friendly from the brief interactions. read more

Emmaus has the real deal nano brewery. Yergeys' is BOSS! Jim and his son are legit brewers. The menu carries at least 8 beers at a time. He rocks the higher ABV selections. I'm currently banging on this Belgian Tripel, Left-Handed Monkey Wrench. Go with his signature Hoptileitious. Open Th-Sun. Foodtruck on premises. read more

Loved the pumpkin beer. Becca provided excellent service! Highly recommend Yergey for their service and beverages!!!

Jim Yergey is literally the face and the driving force behind this nano-brewery. Jim is there 99.99% of the time and personally greets everyone. Jim made great beer and has turned over brewing to his son who is taking the quality of brews to the next level. Homey welcoming vibe both indoors or out and friendly people all there for the beer! A great rotation of local food trucks. One of my favorites places. Anna Banana beer is the bomb. Their dark beers rock! If you haven't done the Emmaus Beer Trail hit Yergey's FIRST! read more

Great local brewery where the owner goes up to the tables (that he made himself) and introduces himself. A lot of unique creations, like a coffee IPA and a hot chocolate something or other, and more importantly, a lot of great craft beers. The scrumdiddlyumptios beer is by far my favorite. (I think my spelling may be off a bit) Atmosphere is kid friendly and with a rotating food truck, there seems to be something unique going on daily. read more

Look. I don't think Yergey has the best beer in the Valley, and I won't pretend they do. But it's good enough. To me, the environment here is what's important. I love coming to Yergey after work for beers with friends. I love sitting outside during the summer, or piling in during the winter. There are often food trucks, which always spark joy within my cold, dark heart. You can very easily run across the train tracks (NO, BE SAFE AND WALK ON THE SIDEWALK) to Switchback, order some pizzas, and bring them back to eat on the picnic tables. If you desire something stronger, it's also right next to a distillery. And if you buy one of their yellow sippy-cups, you can fill up on beer to take over to the Emmaus Theater for one of their weekend BYOB cult classic showings. read more

Yergey Brewing - Flights with Friends - Breweries Near Me - Emmaus, Pennsylvania

This is a great new brewery! We came here back in early November and we were very impressed with the quality of the beer; the styles were varied and they were delicious. We also enjoyed the layout of the brewery and the fact you could bring in food from the outside. We met the owner who was very kind and who genuinely has a passion for what he's doing. I highly recommend coming here if you're in the area! read more

Yergey Brewing - Yummy flight! - Breweries Near Me - Emmaus, Pennsylvania

I live in Philadelphia and I was passing by the area in the search for lunch and beer. I consider myself a beer lover and I think that the quality of this beer is amazing. We tried the IPAs, Brown ale and Belgian dark. Believe me you will not be disappointed. In addition, there is an outside food truck with really good "cone" food..... as you heard cheesestake and salads in a cone read more

Great selection of beer. Love the rotation of styles they have. Owner very informative and friendly. Nice place to spend it afternoon. And if you don't want a whole growler you can get a take a home cup. read more

This place is great! Came here on a Thursday afternoon right when they opened. It looked like it was the husband and wife working the bar and the brewery! We were the only ones in the bar so we were able to talk to them and get to know them and where they started. I am from Colorado so I love talking beer! We had a great experience there! Will def go back when I am in town! The IPAs were awesome! My girlfriend really enjoyed the stouts! I love cozy little breweries where you can see all the equipment. Keep doing what you do and I'll be back. read more

Jim the owner is terrific. He greets everyone, explains the beer selections and is quick to answer any questions. Rotating food trucks makes this place extra special. read more

Yergey Brewing - Breweries Near Me - Emmaus, Pennsylvania

My wife and 3 other friends stopped in this last Saturday, they close at 5 and we got there around 4:30 only planning to stop in quick for our first time and try a few things. We got two flights to split, and there was a lot of good beer. Shorty after we sat, the owner Jim came over and introduced himself. He was very pleasant and professional. Said that if we needed anything to just ask. Right at 5:00, Jim came back and said that we shouldn't be in a hurry, but asked if we wanted a drink to please go order it. We weren't planning on having anymore but it was very nice of him to let us know that he wasn't kicking us out. We'll be back again soon to spend more time there and enjoy a few full sized beers. read more

Fantastic brews amidst a wonderful ambiance. They fill growlers and have an awesome selection of beers. The tables are overflowing with conviviality and it can be crowded and noisy but that's what makes it fun. We haven't eaten there a lot but they have guest cooks and there is table service. The place is about beer and you won't be disappointed. read more

My husband and I have stopped in about 3 times now. The owner, Jim, is really great. They have a great selection of beers for just opening. The building could have been tricky to find if it weren't for the awesome color (yellow and green), we may have easily missed it. No food here, but they do bring in food trucks quite often. $10 for a flight is reasonable as well. read more

Love going here! Great experience to have good beers and enjoy hanging with friends or meeting new people

Love their beer!!! Delicious variety. I will definitely be returning with friends and family.

We stopped at the Tre Locally Sourced Food truck that was at Yergy's tonight. I scored dinner for my 3 grandchildren and myself. Since I was driving with my 3 grandchildren I couldn't have a beer. :-( However, we sure enjoyed ordering from the food truck you hosted this evening. Thank you! read more

I've been to some of biggest and best breweries up and down the East Coat so it takes a lot to impress me. Yergey Brewing has some of the best and most consistent beers I have ever tasted. Their flagship beer, Hoptileitious, is an amazing Double IPA packed with so much flavor that the bitterness isn't overwhelming. To top it all off, we met the owner and brewer, Jim, and he has to be one of the most down to earth, nicest people, that I have ever met. I think his love of people and beer will keep this brewery around for a very long time. I highly recommend Yergey and I hope everyone enjoys it as much as my friends and I did. Cheers!!! read more

Agree with all the 5 star ratings!! First time here today. Great beer. The space is fun & the outside area, despite being in a parking lot, is adorable. Met the owner who is so friendly & genuine. Good looking merchandise. Definitely check this place out!! read more

Awesome micro brewery. Great beer and great atmosphere. Jim is a great brew master and great guy to gang out with while you enjoy his brews.

There are not enough amazing things to say about this great Valley find in Emmaus!! Phenomenal beer brewed with love by the friendly and welcoming Mr. Yergey himself. The atmosphere is great both in the front and the distiller in the back. the owner walked around and talked to all of his customers. The food truck had great bites to enjoy when sipping on the craft beers. You can try all 8 beers for only $20. The best touch about the sampler is they serve them to you in the order you are suppose to drink them to get the best taste and sampling out of them. It's going to be hard trying other places because this hometown feel really owned it. The beer was awesome too!!!!!! read more

Just the best little brewery you could have in town!!! Beer is truly the best and selection so great you can only wish you had time to try them all. Wife and I look forward each week to at least one beer. Food trucks- wow, great! Rondevos is the best! Always a little surprise from the chef because Zack is truly a chef. Vince's is wonderful too! read more

Small local brewery that opened just a few months ago. The owner is really friendly and stops by tables to introduce himself and help visitors feel welcome. He makes the beer, food and even tables! Drink prices are pretty cheap (16 oz for $6 or 4 beer sampler flight for $10). There are also a few food options. In November, 10% of all sales goes to a local charity and visitors can vote for their favorite. read more

On my first visit, just going through town.... I felt like I was hanging out in a friend's basement. So casual and homey. Owners are always there and all the bartenders and patrons are so friendly. After 5 minutes of being there, I knew it was going to be somewhere I'd go out of my way for. Beyond that, awesome beer. Just all around great. Happy birthday, Jim Yergey! read more

Friendly staff, we met the owner while here who was also very nice. I had the saison which was really good and my husband tried a flight of IPAs which he said were all very good. Planning to go back here. read more

Went here on a Friday evening as the other local brewery was jammed. Absolutely wonderful time! The beer is fantastic and the owner is one of the nicest people we have ever met. I loved that he was walking around introducing himself to every customer there and explaining how he got started with the brewery. There was a food truck there but we did not eat from it. It's really nice being able to sit in super comfy Adirondack chairs while having a great beer in the middle of the summer. Yergey is a hidden gem in Emmaus and I'm so glad we were able to stop in and try it finally. We will absolutely be back! read more

Yergey's brews some great beer, and the owner Jim really does a great job of making you feel welcome and telling you the history of the place. We are spoiled in Emmaus now with 2 great breweries, but I have to give the edge to Yergey. Huge fan of the saison and wee heavy. Looking forward to many more visits. read more

I went here the other day. The staff was super nice, the beer was great. Totally recommend. I will be back here for sure!

The owner and brewer, Jim, is great. We had the flights and sampled all 9 available the night we visited. All were very good and the descriptions were spot on. Our group all had their favorite flavor, mine was the "Three Kings and a Bourbon Street Wench - Bourbon Barrel Aged Imperial Stout". Very smooth and flavorful. read more

Yergey Brewing - Breweries Near Me - Emmaus, Pennsylvania

The owner Jim greeted us promptly and introduced himself to me and my husband, asking us if we were ever here before. He then told us about the brewery and how he built the bar and had done all the brewing himself. We felt very welcomed. This little brewery is so cute and romantic, I'm really enjoying my visit here. I am drinking the CaramelCorker and it is kicking my butt! It's strong but has a roasted taste to it. It's a neat experience and I'd suggest others to give it a shot :) I also ordered some seltzer water and I'm glad they had it on tap, it pairs nicely with my beer. read more

Small "nano" brewery that's a hidden gem, but without a doubt the best beer in the area. Shares a building with Triple Sun Spirits and is within walking distance of Funk Brewing. Definitely recommend if you're in the area, or even if you're not and looking to try a great local establishment. read more

If you like excellent craft brews, served in an informal setting, then I suggest Yergey Brewing. With eight offerings, spanning citrus light brews to chocolate stouts, the beers and ales here are each a masterpiece of brewing in their own right. I like Belgian ales and "Friend of the Devil" is a top-notch ale, one of the best I've had. The darks: "The King's Nightcap" and the "Simply, Chocolate - Chocolate American Porter" are soooooo wonderful: full-bodied and flavorful. It's great to have the opportunity to enjoy such wonderful brews right here in the Lehigh Valley. I hope you love Jim Yergey's creations as much as I do! read more

Very fun time! Great beers! The owner, Jim, makes you feel welcome and it's a fun atmosphere. We did flights for $10 which come labeled so you know which is which. You can bring your own food or they had a food truck with delicious tacos. Will definitely be back! read more

Love the atmosphere here! The beers are excellent and always being rotated, so you can get something new! On their website and facebook, you can see what food trucks they'll have serving food there. Additionally, they have various events and live music depending on the week, which can be found on their website. Definitely great to stop by for happy hour! read more
