TOWERHOUSE FARM BREWERY
Towerhouse Farm Brewery is situated on the grounds of Longleaf. Located in the 1911 Building is the Brewery’s Taproom- The Ice Block, as well as an ultra - vibey space, The Vault. Rounding out the space is an atmospheric outdoor Bier Garten.
The brewery is a true farm to glass operation. The ingredients are cultivated fresh from the natural resources found on the farm. Housed in a repurposed tobacco barn, it is designed for merging old-world traditions and flavors with new-world brewing technologies.
