A mix of a farm brewery with an industrial tasting room, an in house contracted BBQ joint, and (oh, yeah!) a distillery. Inside, where you order beer, food, and spirits, has restaurant-like seating and a counter with 3-4 point of sale locations for orders. Thanks to the variety of offerings across the spectrum, the process tended to back up lines quite a bit on what I took for a moderately busy weekend. Servers were pleasant, but seemed a bit more overwhelmed as the day went on. Granted, this was a solitary experience as of this review.
They had a fair set of styles, fairly typical for today - mostly pale ales and lagers, with a few fruited sours and a couple darker offerings. The GF got the pale ales and one was pretty good, while the others were about average. The one sour was decent, though the one pilsner was disappointing. For what it's worth, I did try the bourbon and it was tasty, though it didn't have much complexity.
Outside, they had a fairly large field with a bunch of picnic benches beyond a patio that was itself covered by an upstairs deck and additional indoor seating. There was a gazebo-like area for live music, which was in use the day we were there. There appeared to be a playground for kids at the end of the property (the map also shows additional event space(s)). The distillery was in a separate building (likely required by law) and had a place to order a wider range of cocktails than those offered in the brewery.
