Really nice place, pretty terrible beer and WAY overpriced for the quality.

Visited during a private event recently. The location is tucked away in a residential neighborhood but opens up into a large open space with Hop trellis growing along the drive into the parking area. Also some sunflower plots and other crops on the site. Parking is on grass and drive in is gravel road, so take your time driving in.
Large wooden building with concrete floors. Lots of table and chair setups outside the building too. "Inside" which feels pretty outside due to large garage door openings, there are bench and table sets and a decent sized "L" shape bar along the back of the building.
There were 9 beers on tap available, (IPA, Session IPA, DIPA, Stout, Amber ale, Blonde Ale, pale ale, Hefeweizen and a fruited wheat). I tasted the fruited wheat (blueberry) and it was fruited, sampled the amber and the stout, both were fine. I actually preferred the Amber as the stout was sort of flat on flavor profile. Nothing bad on either beer and not flawed, but neither left me wanting to order a second beer and I took no cans or growler pours home with me. Food truck for the event and it looks like that is the typical food set up.
Staff were very nice and service was fast, but drafts were pricey too. I paid a hair under $9 per pour. Farm to tank brewery is a cool concept but if this is the cost for okay beers, I dont think I will be making many return trips.
Place looks awesome and is a great spot to be on a sunny day, the beers left me wanting a little.

Large timber framed barn on the side of the hill with parking lots on 2 sides. Spacious open interior with large garage doors that were opened on the day I was there and offered a view overlooking a field of sunflowers gave the place a fresh county feel. L-shaped service bar and plenty of picnic tables inside and out. 7 beers on tap, I tried the Marzen and the Amarillo IPA and both were ok, but not exceptional. Fast, friendly service.

Beautiful location a bit off the main road. Friendly service. Beer overall was just okay. Was very crowded with a lot of children and dogs on the premises. I felt bad for one of the employees that had to clean up someone elses dog crap off of the floor inside the barn. Might return again once they have been open for a bit longer.
