Sideways Farm & Brewery strives to return beer to its agricultural roots by handcrafting small batch ales using the highest quality fresh local ingredients, often grown on our sustainable farm - giving each of our beers a unique sense of time and place. Our small farm brewery endeavors to be the heart and soul of our community, a place where neighbors gather, and visitors become friends. Besides our educational guided tasting (a signature experience), we encourage you to walk the farm with a beer in your hand, enjoy the relaxing atmosphere, visit our animals, and see future beer ingredients growing naturally.

Sideways is also a small family run flower farm with fresh seasonal bouquets available in our shop, a flower CSA membership, and a u-pick flower farm open Friday - Sundays! During the week we open the farm for groups and DIY bridal parties by reservation. We use nothing synthetic on our farm. Instead we nurture our flowers with compost, natural minerals, and encourage soil microbiology, leaving you with beautiful blooms that are safe to stick your nose in and inhale deeply!

Wander our fields and pick your own bouquet of flowers! Children and adults delight in seeing the pollinators flitting around our blooms, watching honeybees fly in and out of our hives, and feeding our sheep, chickens and ducks. For those looking for more flowers in their lives, we also let you pick by the bucketful!

Surrounded by gardens, pastures and fields, Sideways emphasizes the connection between the land and the beer, using ingredients grown on the farm in our ever-rotating menu. Much like a winery; guests are guided through the ingredients, flavors, aromas and the story behind each beer. Wander our fields and pick your own bouquet of flowers! Children and adults delight in seeing the pollinators flitting around our blooms, watching honeybees fly in and out of our hives, and feeding our farm animals.
