This distillery at Golden Harvest Farms is a nice little add-on. The people who work there are…read moresuper friendly--smiling, willing to answer any questions, and genuinely seem to enjoy being there. One of the standout features was definitely the barrels. The quirky, funny artwork on them added a lot of character. I tried a flight of their spirits (three total: the bourbon, single malt, and small-batch applejack--about a shot of each), and my wife had a cocktail. Each of the whiskies was decent but very light. The bourbon was a bit smoother than the single malt. The applejack was okay, but not something I'd typically go for. We also tried their homemade hard cider. I'm not usually a cider drinker, and this one wasn't especially memorable--it was sharp and a bit dry, but lacked the sweetness I've enjoyed in other ciders.

The staff was awesome and accommodating, very friendly and helpful. Very layed back vibe, kid friendly and pets are allowed outside. The food was good, in my opinion the burgers were over cooked and a little dry. The 5 stars is for the beer, it was very good. Like I said, Local Hero is a top all time beer for me.

I ordered the Reuben, and it was honestly one of the worst meals I've had in a while. The edges were burnt, there was absolutely no flavor, and it was a complete waste of a meal. I even found myself deconstructing the sandwich, trying to salvage what I could so I wouldn't feel like I was throwing my money away. To make matters worse, I noticed someone else had apparently felt the same way, as their entire sandwich was left behind and tossed out. The one saving grace of the evening was the margaritas, which were great!

A tale of 4 breweries…read more So we tried to visit the brewery (#1) across the street for a flight and some food. It closed at 4, then we were going to have a beer at Return (#2) which opened at 4. The first place closed early (before 3:30pm), so we had some time to check out another spot (#3) a bit of a drive away. (5 min). The other place seemed fine, but since my spouse said the 4pm spot was good, we went back. Second customers in after opening, and I asked if they had any food or flights. He very politely told me that they did not have flights or food (tonight, but they did have some bagged snacks) and told me another brewery (#4) had both those things a short distance away (5-10 min/a few blocks). After chatting with the spouse (she and 3 kids had entered), we decided to stay. (Also, as a fun side-note, #4 is the one spouse thought she was taking us to.) We shared half a pilsner (Polished), half a gose (Speed Dial), and half an IPA (Westwhere). The Pilsner ended up being our 3rd favorite, but they were all tasty. We are not big drinkers, so we felt the 1.5 beers each! And since we were staying, we picked up a mandarin soda for the kids to share (special treat) and we all munched on a bit of popcorn, beef jerky, and Zapp's chips. It ended up being a great time! Very affordable, low-key, solid tunes, and super kid friendly. It's a big space, so noisy children are not too noticeable. Also, the man running the bar, again, was super cool. Highly recommend!

Ticket at the gate was $25 but we got our tickets through Groupon for only $23 for the 2 of us which was a really sweet deal for this particular event from 11am-6pm. There were tons of tasting from wineries, distilleries, breweries, cideries but didn't quite balance well with the paucity of food vendors. Luckily there were food trucks around so you could grab a bite to eat, listen to the live band, go pets some goats at the petting zoo and then go back to for more drink tastings. Overall, Columbia County Fairgrounds is a terrific venue to host this type of event and was worth it for the drinks, entertainment, and free souvenir wine glasses.

Eric is the brew master and was working this day serving these fabulous beers that are worth a stop to this place. They also have another location down the road at their farm. That would be cool to visit another time. This place and the bathrooms are super clean, bright. There is plenty of seating to allow you to spread out. Each table has games so if you just want to enjoy a beer and play games you can. I played the BeerIQ game and I learned a few things about beer and now I want to buy the game for home. Beer: I had a sample of brown ale and the imperial stout. Both were incredible. It is hard to get a good brown ale and Eric nailed it! I ordered a brown ale since I was driving and the alcohol content was lower. I tasted the Imperial stout and wow delicious. One of the regulars was raving about the imperial stout and he was so right! Some days they offer food, but we came on Saturday where the kitchen was closed. Eric was kind enough to allow us to get outside food so we could continue to enjoy his brews. Everyone here is friendly. Highly recommend to come. Even if you are not near by, these brews are worth the drive.

Upon speaking with Kari, I learned they opened in 2020 and it used to be an old schoolhouse! They had a craft night for a Valentine's Day craft, they have games, pariticpate in the jigsaw puzzle competition amongst a few local breweries, and had an ongoing "guess the amount" competition to guess how many candy hearts were in a container, and they have live music. They don't serve food but do have pop-ups with local places. I wish I could have checked out the outdoor space but weather didn't allow it. Definitely a place I'd come back to, especially in spring/summer. Sidenote: If you're looking for a local place to stay the night, the upstairs loft is a beautiful Air BnB!
