Great beer, great people, great outdoor space. We came here with our dog to sample a few beers and they did not disappoint. We had their black IPA, one of their hazy IPAs, and rye amber lager. All of them were terrific - especially the black IPA. The staff there, as well as the patrons, were very friendly to us and our dog. There was plenty of seating outdoors and it was a nice view.

They often have pizza there in a truck outside their taproom. They have a calendar online where you can see if it'll be open that day. Unfortunately it wasn't open when we went, so I can't give a review on that. Thankfully, we were allowed to bring outside food in as we were hungry.

The place is just a bit hard to find as it's on a residential property in a barn a little way from the road. They have a sign, but it's a bit hard to see. Google maps well take you there, just keep your eyes peeled.

We came last year for the Barntoberfest. The beer is always great with tons of options. The food was great. The atmosphere is excellent. Looking forward to this year.

What a great out of the way place. A group of us rode out this weekend and we're pleasantly surprised at finding this little gem! Great beers, pizza truck, cheese, crackers, and cheesecake! And the people that own this place were amazing. We will be back....

Enjoyed our visit, 2 flights & a few others and we found many that we really liked. Pizza truck was good. Wish it was closer

We discovered this amazing oasis tucked away in the wilderness. So glad we ventured out to find it. The beers we sampled were top-notch, and the prices were reasonable. The outdoor setup is charming, making it a perfect spot for relaxation. Definitely worth the drive - tranquil ambiance, delightful staff, and fantastic brews!

Wonderful spot that is literally in the middle of nowhere. Glad we made the journey out. Beers we tried were excellent and the prices are fair. Lovely set up outside. Well worth the road trip - very peaceful and serene, super friendly staff - and great beers!
Annie Kay
Awesome brewery! Way off the beaten path but worth the drive. Loved the beers and blueberry mead. Will be back soon with growlers to fill up and take home!
Courtney Huffman
Great little brewery off the beaten path! We tried 4 different beers and they were all very palatable and their giant pretzel wasn't bad either. Definitely want to come back when it's warmer and they have food trucks! Cozy atmosphere, friendly staff, and good beer.

This a very unique off the beaten path brewery. It was a lot of fun to sit and experience the different beers they offer while visiting with the bartenders and locals. The building is rustic as well as the decor. If you're into micro brews then this is a must see.

Lovely patio, for outdoor seating that should be usable for a good part of the winter and really enjoyed the new barrel aged release as well as the unusual but tasty PlowHorse black IPA!

Great little Illinois farm brewery. Very picturesque place to have a beer on the back patio in the hop field. Fast friendly service, and tasty beers. The IPA's are especially good. Worth a detour on the back roads, getting there is half the fun.

Came for the grand opening and we really enjoyed visiting this brewery! It has a rustic, inviting ambiance when you get inside; there are plenty of tables and seating, and there are even couches in the back where you can hang out with a group and play some board games. The owners and bartenders are super friendly and knowledgeable, with staff giving personalized beer recommendations if you're not sure what to try. There were about ten options of different kinds of beer, and the meats and cheeses they offer were the perfect snack to compliment our drinks. I think they will have a rotating menu of beers, so I'm definitely coming back to try their new batches once they're on tap!
