Westampton is gearing up for one of the most anticipated events of the year as Diamond Spring Brewing Company hosts its third annual Flannel Fest on Saturday, November 8, 2025, from 12:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. Celebrated as part lumberjack jamboree, part 90s grunge revival, the festival has quickly become a highlight of New Jersey’s craft beer and live music scene, offering a unique mix of entertainment, community spirit, and seasonal cheer.
Flannel Fest delivers a multi-sensory experience for attendees, beginning with live performances that span genres and generations. Music lovers can enjoy the rich sounds of a Bluegrass band that captures the heart of Americana alongside a 90s Grunge Tribute, paying homage to the era that defined a generation of rock fans. The stage is just the start; scattered throughout the brewery grounds are fire pits perfect for warming up on a crisp November day while sipping limited-edition seasonal beers released specifically for the festival.
Adding to the festive atmosphere, Diamond Spring Brewing Company will host its beard contest, officiated by local personalities, which has become a beloved and quirky tradition of the event. Families, friends, and craft beer enthusiasts alike can wander the grounds sampling a wide variety of Diamond Spring’s latest brews, many available exclusively at Flannel Fest. Specialty food offerings and food trucks round out the experience, ensuring that no visitor leaves hungry.
This year’s festival comes at a pivotal moment for New Jersey’s craft beer industry. While new breweries like Bullhide Brewery in Pilesgrove, Wander Back Beerworks in Vineland, and expansions from Five Dimes and Magnify Brewing Company Medford & Magnify Brewing Company Fairfield are injecting fresh energy into the market, the sector continues to face challenges from rising operational costs, complex regulations, and the evolving landscape of liquor license laws. Despite these hurdles, breweries like Diamond Spring are doubling down on community events that not only showcase their craft but also bring residents together in celebration of local culture and creativity.
Flannel Fest’s success also reflects Diamond Spring’s commitment to community engagement. The brewery has positioned itself as a hub for both music lovers and craft beer aficionados, creating events that highlight the vibrant New Jersey beer scene while fostering connections between locals and visitors. Attendees can expect an immersive festival experience that combines entertainment, camaraderie, and craft brewing excellence in a picturesque outdoor setting.
