MORRISVILLE BOROUGH, PA — The tide has turned.

The beer is now pouring at RiverTide Brewing on East Bridge Street in the heart of the borough, and a stone's throw from the Delaware River and the bridge that's incorporated in its logo.

The new brewery started tapping its kegs during its grand opening on Friday.

The business pays homage to the riverfront community, with a large mural custom-painted by a local artist. It shows the Lower Trenton Bridge complete with its iconic slogan, "Trenton Makes, The World Takes."

The brewery, gastropub, and restaurant is operated by childhood friends Rob Staples, Frank Brill, and Ken Terry.

RiverTide features New England and West Coast IPAs, ambers, pale ales, fruity ales, shandies, lagers, saisons, and stouts — with brewing in-house.

A full bar will also feature a curated cocktail list for dinner & brunch service, wine, seltzers, and hard teas. Brewery owners said they've also recently spent time perfecting pretzel bites and house-made beer cheese.

There's even brunch on Sundays.

"RiverTide will be a full kitchen, and we’re putting just as much care into the food as we do the beer," its owners said.

RiverTide will be open five days a week:

  • Wednesday: 4-11 p.m.
  • Thursday: 4-11 p.m.
  • Friday: 3-12 p.m.
  • Saturday: Noon to Midnight
  • Sunday: 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. (Brunch 10-3)
