When Gene Muller founded Flying Fish Brewing Co. in 1995, he did so first on the pre-spam/Amazon/Google World Wide Web – making it the world’s first virtual microbrewery. The subsequent attention generated investor and bank interest turning a great idea into great beer at a real brewery in Cherry Hill in 1996.Fast forward a couple of decades and Flying Fish is now located in Somerdale, New Jersey. In a state where the 50 pre-prohibition breweries were reduced to a couple, we were the first microbrewery in South Jersey and are now the largest of the 70+ craft breweries in the state.Our state-of-the-art brewery is the most sustainable in the region and allows us to brew beer in the most environmentally friendly way possible.Flying Fish now produces a range of beers year-round, along with a variety of seasonal specialties. The Tasting Room, open Wednesday-Sunday features 15 taps and weekly one-off and barrel aged beers. Flying Fish beers are ten-time medal winners at the Great American Beer Festival, the most of any New Jersey brewery.
Flying Fish was established in 1995 as the world's first virtual microbrewery, something novel that drew a lot of attention. Flying Fish sold their product completely over the internet and shipped it to the customers location. Capitalizing on this early notoriety, founder Gene Muller took Flying Fish into brick and mortar, constructing the first microbrewery in South Jersey. Following his success online, Muller partnered with Andrew Newell to help secure funding for a permanent establishment. While New Jersey once boasted more than 50 breweries, Flying Fish was the first new brewery built in Southern New Jersey in more than 50 years.
