Hampton’s Front Porch

A gathering place for locals and visitors alike, featuring Ole Foggy Distillery and Gridiron Brewing, under one roof. 

Who We Are

The Porch Hampton brings together two local favourites:

Ole Foggy Distillery with their delicious moonshine, distilled spirits and cocktails.

Gridiron Brewing with their local craft beer made with as many Canadian-sourced ingredients as possible.

All under one roof, creating a place where people can gather, unwind, and feel at home. Just like you are relaxing on your front porch.

What started as a shared dream between local business owners Aaron Murray & Christina Campbell-Murray (and of course, their dog Hank) and Luke MacGregor & Heather Avery (and their kids) has become something more—a space built on community, connection, and a love for great drinks and good company for all ages, abilities and communities.

Aaron’s spirit is part of everything we do. He had a way of bringing people together with a good laugh and a great drink in hand. The Porch carries that forward—welcoming locals and visitors alike to sit, stay, and enjoy the moment.

We miss you, Aaron.

In the Community

Proudly made in Hampton, New Brunswick, The Porch is home to Ole Foggy Distillery and Gridiron Brewing—two local producers crafting spirits, moonshine, cocktails and local craft beer with care, creativity, and local ingredients.

But what truly defines us is the community.

From live music to workshops and everyday visits, you’ve made this more than a place to grab a drink—you’ve made it a place to belong.

Drink local.
See you on The Porch.

Our Story

It started with two separate paths—each rooted in a passion for craft and community.

Ole Foggy Distillery built its name creating small-batch spirits and moonshine, making for memorable experiences. Just down the road, Gridiron Brewing was doing the same in its own way—crafting beer and building a loyal local following.

Two distinct businesses. Two shared values.

The idea for something more came next.

Today, that vision lives at The Porch Hampton—where Ole Foggy Distillery and Gridiron Brewing come together under one roof for the first time. What was once separate has been brought together to create a full experience for the community.

Here, it’s more than just what’s in your glass. It’s food trucks, live music, local events, and a space designed for connection. Whether you’re here for craft beer, cocktails, or mocktails, The Porch is about bringing people together and giving them a place to stay awhile.
