What Tonewood Brewing does
Tonewood Brewing is a family-owned craft brewery founded in June 2016 by brothers Eli and Taylor Facchinei alongside parents Anne and Jim Facchinei, operating two taprooms in South Jersey (Oaklyn, opened June 2016, and Barrington, opened January 2022) and producing over 14,000 barrels of beer annually for distribution across New Jersey and Pennsylvania. The company's core technology platform is conventional craft brewing with a domain specialization in mixed-culture and barrel-aged saisons produced in oak foeders and barrels (including the multi-iteration Cellar Door series), supported by specialty hop programs with Yakima Chief and Crosby Hops and NJ-grown grains from Rabbit Hill Malthouse. Sustainability infrastructure (a 200kW solar array, EV sales vehicles, carbon capture, and biodegradable 6-pack rings/plastic-free cartons) is integrated into the production footprint.
The portfolio spans roughly 60+ beers across flagship, seasonal, collaboration, and specialty categories — anchored by IPAs and Pale Ales (Fuego, Freshies, Impro, Halcyon, Rift), a deep lager program (Poolside, Birdie Jasmine Rice Lager, Focal Point Czech Pilsner, Biergarten, Lumberyard), and a premium mixed-culture line (Oak-Lynn, Cellar Door I–VI, Slow Saison, Redwood, Gold Trails). Revenue is generated through three primary streams: direct taproom sales of draft and packaged beer at both NJ locations plus Toasttab online ordering; wholesale distribution in NJ (Greater Haddon Valley and broader NJ footprint via Five Good Inc.) and PA (via 31st & Wharton); and ancillary streams including merchandise (apparel, drinkware, local-artist collaborations), private event rentals at the Barrington mezzanine, and live music programming (Final Fridays, First Thursday residencies, anniversary events). The company serves local craft beer enthusiasts in South Jersey and retail/wholesale buyers across NJ and PA, with no disclosed enterprise accounts, no external funding, and no M&A activity.
