Manor Hill Brewing

We are kicking off #DarkBeerSeason with our much acclaimed coffee stout beginning at 4pm on First Friday 8/7!&nbsp; And not just any coffee stout... a cold brew coffee stout featuring beans from Dublin Roasters (Frederick MD) and named after the idyllic sunrises here at the farm (follow @manorrising on instagram)! This beer was released last year as a small batch farm-only and people couldn't get enough of it so we made more and gave it the full First Friday treatment.&nbsp; Plus… we’ll have&nbsp;Live Music&nbsp;in the courtyard from Jon Watkins (5-8pm) 
MANOR RISING (Cold Brew Coffee Stout, 6.5%) –&nbsp;Brewed with Dublin Roasters (Frederick, MD) cold brew coffee and available just in time for fall, Manor Risin’ is named for the idyllic sunrises that start our day on the farm. This robust brew pours jet black with a tan head. Aromas of chocolate and fresh ground coffee foreshadow the rich and slightly sweet chocolate flavors that are balanced by a familiar coffee bitterness.
Our&nbsp;Farm &amp; Taproom&nbsp;will be open&nbsp;with 14 taps featuring farm-brewed beers, hard seltzer, and non-alcoholic hop water, plus multiple options in cans available to go. All seating on the Farm is first come, first served.&nbsp; We have indoor seating, a large covered tent, and plenty of outdoor space to spread out. There are several picnic tables in our field, but we also encourage you to bring your own chairs or even a portable (10×10) pop-up tent for shade and find your new favorite spot with friends.
Our&nbsp;Farm Stand&nbsp;(conveniently located behind the bar) is constantly evolving and is sure to have some locally produced items for sale, including staples like Manor Hill Farm Pickles, Relish, Jellies and more.
Manor Hill Pizza Trolley&nbsp;will be open all weekend serving brick-oven Neapolitan-style pizzas, salads, snacks, and more.&nbsp;
