New Jersey Breweries Vie for Medals at Great American Beer Festival

 Bonesaw Brewing from South Jersey will represent New Jersey at the Great American Beer Festival in Denver next weekend, competing alongside Diamond Spring Brewing and New Jersey Beer Company. The festival is the premier U.S. beer competition, awarding medals in over 100 categories. Last year, several local breweries, including Gusto and Cape May Brewing, brought home medals.

New Jersey's ANCHOR Tax Benefit Payments to Begin Earlier Than Expected

 New Jersey residents will begin receiving their ANCHOR property tax benefits earlier than expected, with payments starting in mid-October. Homeowners could receive up to $1,500, while renters get $450, with seniors receiving an additional $250. Most payments will be distributed 90 days after filing, and the application deadline is November 30. Residents can check their benefit status online or seek help via the state’s hotline or regional centers.

Catch the Phillies Division Series Game on the Beach in Cape May!

What? A shameless plug for a Phillies game viewing party? You bet it is! This kind of thing extends the summer a little bit longer. The Phillies kept fans on edge during Sunday’s game against the Mets, but Red October continues as they prepare for Tuesday’s game in New York. If heading to Flushing during the workweek isn’t your thing, there’s a more relaxing alternative for fans: catching the game right from the beach in Cape May. Gurney Street beach is a great spot to set up your beach chair, blanket, and watch the game while soaking in the autumn beach vibes. With the game starting at 5:08 PM, it’s the perfect way to unwind after a day of work.

Red October Fever: Phillies Fans Rally Ahead of Game 3 Against Mets

 Phillies fans are buzzing with excitement ahead of Game 3 of the National League Division Series against the Mets on Tuesday. From fans gearing up with team merchandise to organized bus trips to Citi Field, the city is alive with Red October fever. Phillies' fan groups, including Phans of Philly, are heading to New York to cheer on the team, and the support is spreading well beyond the stadium, involving notable figures from across Philadelphia.
