At S&S Brewery, the atmosphere shifts with the seasons, offering a unique experience year-round.

During the warmer months, our expansive outdoor space comes to life. Guests can relax at picnic tables, enjoy live music on our outdoor stage, and let their children play in the playground just outside the taproom. While we always have food available, our busier nights feature multiple food vendors, offering a variety of flavors and even dessert options. Some evenings feel like a laid-back family picnic, while others take on the energy of a lively community block party.

As the seasons change and the air grows cooler, the experience moves inside to our taproom, housed in a beautifully restored dairy barn. The warm, rustic setting creates a cozy and inviting atmosphere, where guests can still enjoy live music, great company, and delicious food. Whether you're here for a summer night under the stars or a crisp autumn evening by the bar, S&S Brewery is a welcoming place to gather, celebrate, and enjoy craft beer all year long.

Yes! Sanford Farm remains an active farm, producing hay and raising a small herd of beef cows. In addition to our cattle, the farm is also home to donkeys, chickens, dogs, and cats.

As a working farm, much of the equipment and barns outside of the brewery are used for daily farming operations. We kindly ask that visitors respect these areas and remain within the designated brewery property. Additionally, for the safety of both guests and animals, please be mindful that the fences surrounding our livestock are electric and remain on at all times.

We love sharing our farm's history and atmosphere with our guests, and we appreciate your help in keeping it a safe and enjoyable place for everyone!

Absolutely! We welcome families with kids of all ages and strive to create a space where everyone can enjoy their time together. Our brewery features a fenced-in playground that is open during our hours of operation, giving children a place to play while parents relax and enjoy a drink.

That said, the playground is a play-at-your-own-risk area, and we kindly ask that parents or guardians supervise their children at all times to ensure they are playing safely and within the designated playyard. We want all of our guests—big and small—to have a great time at S&S Brewery!

While we love dogs, we kindly ask that you consider leaving your furry friends at home when visiting the brewery. If you do choose to bring your dog, please note that:

• Dogs must remain on a leash at all times

• Owners are responsible for cleaning up after their pets

• Dogs must be well-behaved and comfortable around people and other animals

For the safety and enjoyment of all our guests, we reserve the right to ask any dog to leave at our discretion.

We appreciate your understanding as we strive to create the best experience for everyone at S&S Brewery!

Yes! We have our very own food truck, The Hayfield Grill, on-site from March through October, serving up delicious meals to pair with our craft beer. During our busy season, we also bring in a second visiting vendor to offer even more variety. Additionally, throughout the year, we rotate in other food vendors to keep things fresh and exciting.

To see what food will be available on the night of your visit, check out our Events Page, Facebook, or Instagram for updates. We also post our food vendor’s menu a few days in advance on Facebook so you can plan ahead!

We most definitely do! Live music is a key part of the S&S Brewery experience, and we feature live performances every night we are open—except when we’re hosting special events like trivia or bingo nights.

Our lineup covers a wide range of genres, from Americana and folk to blues and rock, creating the perfect atmosphere for a night out. During the warmer months, music takes place on our outdoor stage, while in the cooler season, performances move inside our cozy taproom.
