Live and Loud from Hop Sauce Festival 2025 – Beach Haven, NJ

Greetings From the Garden State · 2025-06-24

Mike Ham brings the noise from the 10th annual Jetty Rock Foundation Hop Sauce Festival in Beach Haven, NJ! Broadcasting live from the Taylor Avenue waterfront, this episode captures the essence of one of the most beloved summer events at the Jersey Shore. With over 50 craft beers, a spicy selection of hot sauces, and vendors bringing the heat, Hop Sauce is where food, music, and community collide.

Mike kicks things off solo while waiting on co-host Danny Coleman, who’s battling the parking chaos (classic LBI). Sunshine Spazz is rocking the stage, the sun is blazing, and the beer is cold—so if you're nearby, pull up.

Throughout the day, you'll hear:

Interviews with organizers and vendorsPerformances and chats with bandsPlenty of chaos, commentary, and Jersey pride

Whether you were there or just wish you were, this episode is your front-row pass to the Hop Sauce Festival, Jetty-style.
