## About

Brewery Terra Firma is a farm and production brewery producing high quality, culinary-inspired beers using whole ingredients. Many of the ingredients for our unique brews including herbs, spices, vegetables, fruits, hops and even flowers are all grown on our 10 acre farm.

The brew house is an engineered blend of new and old technologies and techniques. Whole ingredients are used with traditional brewing equipment, controlled by state of the art systems that manage temperature throughout the brewing process. These same systems harvest waste BTU's, capturing the energy and reusing it to preheat ingredients, maintain product temperatures, and even heat the taproom via an in-floor heating system. Waste materials such as process water and spent grain are also captured for fertilization and irrigation of our crops.

The prep table in the brewery quite often looks like the prep area in a fine restaurant. Fresh herbs, fruits and vegetables are a common sight, along with an amazing array of spices, roots, even flowers.
