For the month of June, Krogh’s is proud to partner with PFLAG Sussex County, a local organization dedicated to support, education, and advocacy. Founded in 2023, this growing local chapter provides a welcoming space for LGBTQ+ individuals while helping families, friends, and allies learn how to offer the best possible love and support to their loved ones.

Currently supporting over 40 active participants, PFLAG Sussex County is open to anyone looking to help build a more inclusive local community. To attend an upcoming meeting, find resource updates, or follow their community impact, connect with them directly on social media.

Throughout June, $1.00 from every draft sold on our designated Giving Tap will be donated directly to PFLAG Sussex County. These proceeds stay right here in our community, directly funding local educational programs and support initiatives. The Giving Tap Beer is our Cookie Dough Stout! Think of it like a liquid bakery treat featuring hints of brown sugar, vanilla, and buttery dough. It's delicious and refreshing without being overly sweet!

The recipient of May’s Giving Tap is Lennon’s House, a 501(c)(3) non-profit dedicated to supporting individuals with intellectual differences. Their mission is to create a vibrant recreational center, community gift shop, and permanent residence where this beautiful population can thrive. The organization is inspired by the founders' son, Lennon, a young man with a sharp wit and a genetic condition called CDK13 that requires lifelong support. Lennon’s House is being built to provide a forever home for him and others in the special needs community to live and grow together.

This month is especially meaningful as it marks Lennon’s 22nd birthday! To acknowledge this milestone and support this vital cause, Krogh’s Restaurant & Brew Pub will donate $1 from every flavored stout sold throughout May. We invite you to stop in, enjoy a glass of our featured selection, and join us in celebrating Lennon’s birthday! Your support helps turn the dream of a permanent residence into a reality! You can follow their journey on the Lennon’s House Facebook page or visit their website to learn more.

Ginnie's House in Newton is our non-profit Giving Tap recipient for April!

What they do: They coordinate services for victims of abuse, and they work closely with the prosecutor’s office, law enforcement, and the Division of Child Protection and Permanency (DCP&P), bringing all of the services under one roof. They provide a home-like location in which a child can explain what happened in a comfortable environment. They can help children through the healing process of many forms of trauma, not just abuse.

How they operate: Ginnie's House has recently lost a devastating amount from federal grant cuts. This year, more than ever, your monetary donations are crucial to keep their array of free custom services and child-specific therapies in place. Ginnie's House will receive $1.00 from each draft sold on the Giving Tap during April and all proceeds benefit the children they serve. If you'd like to help out further, there is a monetary donation link and an Amazon wish list on our website, and any donation, no matter how small, is greatly appreciated.

Together we can help make a child's future safer, brighter, and more fun!

At Krogh’s Restaurant & Brew Pub, we believe in the power of community. This March, we are honored to dedicate our charitable efforts to One Step Closer Animal Rescue (O.S.C.A.R.), a local organization currently working to rebuild after a devastating fire.

Ways to Contribute:
Throughout the month of March, guests can participate in our fundraising initiative through three distinct channels:

1) The Giving Tap: For every Krogh's Light poured from our designated "Giving Tap," Krogh’s will donate $1.00 directly to O.S.C.A.R.’s rebuilding fund. This straw-colored beer is our take on an American light beer, and it finishes with a crisp taste!

2) Donation Drive: We are hosting an on-site donation drive for critical supplies. Guests are encouraged to drop off items from the rescue’s "needs list" in the designated collection box located within the restaurant. Please adhere to this list of items, as no perishable items can be accepted:
*dish soap
*heavy-duty garbage bags
*paper towels
*box of 100 disposable gloves
*reusable dishwashing gloves
*zip ties
*dog waste/poop bags

3) Dining to Donate: On Sunday, March 22nd, Krogh’s will host a day-long benefit where a significant portion of the day's sales will be donated to the rescue.

Lastly, we would like to extend our sincere gratitude to the Lost Shakers of Salt trail running club. Though originally scheduled as our March recipient of the Giving Tap, they graciously deferred their partnership to ensure O.S.C.A.R. received immediate support during this critical time. Raise a glass to these local legends for their incredible selflessness!

We invite you to join us this month in supporting our furry friends and the dedicated team at O.S.C.A.R. as they get back on their feet.

This February, we’re falling head-over-paws for a very special cause! Our Giving Tap is going to the dogs (and cats!) as we partner with Father John's Animal House in Lafayette for a month-long celebration of puppy love and feline affection! We think February is the perfect month for fundraising, especially when it involves our furry friends at Father John’s. It’s a match made in heaven—or at least at the shelter!

How to Show Your Love:
For every pint poured from our dedicated Giving Tap this month, we’re donating $1.00 directly to the shelter. Your support helps provide:
❤️ Medical Care: Veterinary services and necessary medications
❤️ Warmth & Comfort: Safe housing, food, and plenty of companionship
❤️ A New Beginning: Spay/neuter services and microchipping to ensure every pet is ready for their forever home

Pours with a Purpose:
The Giving Tap donation will help Father John's Animal House continue its mission of love. Originally founded in 1999 on land overseen by a dedicated member of the clergy, the shelter now responsibly places over 800 animals a year into loving families.

Don’t Stop at the Tap:
If you want to shower even more affection on these cuddly creatures, you can donate directly to their cause! In addition, there are plenty of other ways to get involved, from supporting their low-cost spay/neuter clinic to fostering, volunteering, donating items they need, and more! Please see their website for all of their involvement options available to you!

So, come in this month, grab a Giving Tap beer, and let’s make this a "paws-itively" unforgettable February! ❤️

This January, Krogh's is honored to dedicate our Giving Tap to the memory of Mike Petershack, a pillar of our community whose passing has deeply affected so many. While we typically support non-profit organizations, we felt compelled to help ease the burden on Mike's family as they navigate this difficult new year. Mike was a lifelong resident, dedicating his career to public service, first with the Jefferson Department of Public Works and later with the Hardyston Police Department, where he served as an officer, detective, and L.E.A.D. instructor before retiring in 2023.

Beyond his service, Mike was a devoted family man, finding his greatest joy in being a husband and father. He poured his heart into coaching his children's sports teams and supporting Sparta Youth Softball.

Mike is survived by his wife, Sharon, and their children, Ella (11) and Wesley (8). As we look ahead to new beginnings in 2026, let us remember Mike's legacy of service, generosity, and love for his family. A dollar from every Giving Tap draft sold this month will go directly towards supporting Ella and Wesley's education. While the pain of his absence will always be felt, we hope to help Sharon, Ella, and Wesley move forward, carrying Mike's spirit with them. Additional donations to the family can also be made through the GoFundMe link provided on this page.
