Locally grown hops makes for nice locally crafts beer. They have great homemade root beer, too. Often they have a food truck or catering onsite for a casual bite to eat. This place gets busy ... it’s popular ‘cause the beer is good.

Wineries - Distilleries
Adorable winery/farm ... Sue and her hubby run a sweet spot and make some nice wines. Try a tasting and pick a fav then sit by the fire pit or walk through the vines to the cool creek along the back. They often have live music, too. If you like sweet wine this is the best place. The others we recommend don’t have much in the way of sweet.
