Taking a look back

Plan Bee Farm Brewery expanded its operation in 2015 to a 25 acre farm in Poughkeepsie! We closed on the property May 5, 2015 and started construction the first week of August. We converted the barn build in the 1830's to the current brewery. Construction was concluded in February and we were brewing our first batches in March! 

We just celebrated our one year anniversary at the new farm this May 5, 2016. We wanted to take a moment to reflect on the past year while we look ahead at the year to come!
