Our small, family-run brewery features a relaxed, low-key, friendly, "on-the-family-farm" rural experience in a countryside location. Our regular taproom features year-round indoor seating. You can also enjoy our large outdoor beer garden seating area, our concrete patio seating, and our Greenhouse Tent Seating (more details on Greenhouse seating below in FAQ section).
We're always brewing something new - to be among the first to know what is on tap each week, please sign up for our weekly email newsletter. Our current On Tap menu can also be viewed here.
FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions

2. Can I bring in my dog?
Sorry, we do not allow dogs inside the brewery building or greenhouse tent.
However, dogs are welcome in our outdoor, grass-covered beer garden during the warmer months. Dogs must be kept on a short leash at all times while in our grassy outdoor beer garden.
3. Are children welcome at the brewery with their parents?
Yes, children are welcome to join their parents at our indoor seating or our outdoor beer garden seating. We ask that you please keep your children with you at all times, and do not allow to them wander off on their own. Children are not allowed in our Greenhouse Seating, which is only for ages 21 & older.
4. Do you serve drinks other than your beer, like wine?
Sorry, we only serve the beer that we make here on site. Our liquor license does not allow for wine or spirits. However, in addition to beer we make a hard lemonade that we keep on tap for non-beer or gluten-free drinking. Depending upon the time of year, we offer frozen sweet fruit beer slushies or warm sweet mulled fruit beer. We also offer our homemade root beer as well as cans of soda. Check our On Tap list for availability. *Carry-in alcohol is prohibited*.
