Great news coming via Flying Dog:
Last year, the State of Maryland unanimously passed legislation establishing farm breweries, which feature estate-grown ingredients in their beer.
This weekend, Maryland’s first farm brewery, Milkhouse Brewery at Stillpoint Farm, will open its doors.
Stillpoint Farm was the first farm to commercially grow hops in the State of Maryland since the late 1800s. Owner Tom Barse — a former lawyer, current high school teacher, and homebrewer for over 30 years — was key in establishing farm brewery legislation and has provided local hops for our Secret Stash Harvest Ale for the past three years.
Milkhouse Brewery at Stillpoint Farm’s opening is not only a huge step for Maryland craft beer, but also an incredible advancement for the state’s agriculture industry. We hope you’ll join us on this beautiful Mt. Airy farm this weekend and raise a glass to this momentous occasion.
