On an old tobacco farm just north of Whitfield is this small brewery with its taphouse set inside a tobacco kiln. It has six beers on tap including an IPA, an altbier and a saison farmhouse ale. Ask about always interesting seasonal brews including its Waiting for Godot Belgian Tripel. Food options include wood-fired pretzels and hearty grilled European-style sausages.
