MudHen Brewing Company is Wildwood’s only craft brewery, with eight to 12 rotating craft beers on tap daily that are brewed on-premises. The establishment takes its name, according to its website, from a bygone, late-1800s train that ran from the mainland to North Wildwood over ramshackle tracks that washed out so often, the train got nicknamed “The Mud Hen.”
The two-level brewery – once a Harley Davidson dealership – lists all its concoctions with a full description and their ABV (alcohol by volume) on its website. Guests can also sample several per sitting through four, five-ounce beer flights. Among Mudhen’s current options are the Captain Doug’s Porter, a dark ale with a distinct chocolate character; the Nummy Pumpkin, an autumnal brown ale made with pumpkin, brown sugar, and seasonal spices; and the This Little Piggy Idaho, which is brewed from Pacific Northwest hops by the Sterling Pig Brewery in Media,
Pa., and part of Mudhen’s “Friends on Tap” selections. Mudhen Brewing Company is located at 127 W. Rio Grande Ave., Wildwood.
