We make beer...lots of it!

Barley Creek beer is craft brewed, right on site in our ten-barrel English brewhouse. Over the past quarter century plus, we've brewed hundreds of styles of beer, from the lightest lager to the darkest stout. We also craft small batches of big spirits in our on-site distillery. We're making vodka, whiskey, rum, gin, agave spirits (tequila), moonshine, and canned ready-to-drink cocktails like our Mountain Mule, Barley Palmer, Transfusion and Pocono Punch. Okay, we admit it: this is the best job ever. Thanks for checking out our website. If you're in the Pocono Mountains, stop by and say hi! Cheers!
