Craft beer meets craft goods in our Local Craftsman Night event series. On the first Wednesday of every month, we’ll host a local artist or craftsman in our brewery. March's Local Craftsman is Lezlie Gentry, Artist. Inspired by nineteenth century black and white photographs of Native Americans, artist Lezlie Gentry’s Return of the Ancestors Project moves beyond the flatness of the portraits by bringing to light the inner lives of the individuals captured within the photographer's frame. The series is characterized by its large-scale, abstract, acrylic on canvas paintings, which are dramatically anchored by the subjects’ silhouettes. She captures the Ancestors as they really were; vibrant, expressive, and robust. The Native American Ancestors shown in her artwork are eager and ready to tell their stories and their wisdom to all who know how to listen with their heart. Check out her work and support another local independent business. https://www.returnoftheancestorsproject.com/

The Drunk Monk is back on tap!

Thank you to all the Veterans out there. We've got a weekend full of live music planned. Come out tonight and listen to The Grays at Hix Farm Brewery. They play classic folk and Americana music; they're a hometown favorite. Then tomorrow, we'll have Brandon Maddox Live at Hix Farm Brewery. He's a TN Tech grad, but since then he's won a Josie award, appeared in the hit show "Nashville", and was named "Monster Truck Artist of The Year". Don't miss either of these shows! We'll also have the Caney Fork Food Truck parked outside today and Rosco & Co Food Truck tomorrow.

The ART Prowl 2017 starts today. Be sure to get out and explore Cookeville's talented artists and local businesses. We're a community partner, so show us your art prowl flyer to get special deals today and tomorrow. We're not an official stop but we will still have a special guest vendor. A local glass artist, TrissyLu, will be at our place tomorrow.

Check our latest seasonal release, the Zen Amber. It’s a chai amber ale full of cozy fall flavors to help you find your happy place.

November is going to be a hopping month at Hix Farm Brewery so be sure to follow all of our events and share with your friends. We've got live music every Sunday this month with John Lathim, Brandon Maddox, and Drew Robbins Music. A new food truck, Rosco & Co Food Truck, will be parked at our place on those Sundays. We'll be at the Art n Ale Trail tomorrow at the Northfield Vineyards, then next weekend is the Cookeville ART Prowl 2017 and we'll be offering discounts to all those participants. Also happening next weekend is our Veterans Day Celebration with live music by The Grays.

John Lathim returns to Hix Farm Brewery with his incredible acoustic music. On top of some phenomenal food, we'll be debuting our new food truck partnership with Rosco AndCo. Please join us for our new Sunday music series.

Packed house tonight for the Local Craftsman Night :)

The next Local Craftsman Night with Crooked Creek Designs is tonight! Come check out Jane's beautiful jewelry. It's not too early to be shopping for Christmas gifts and it's always a good time to spoil yourself.

John Barleycorn seemed a fitting name for our newest release - a no-holds-barred barley wine with an ABV of 14.0%. In this traditional folk song, John Barleycorn is the personification of the barley crop, the main ingredient in beer and whiskey. Originally a poem, this folk song is railing against the ludicrousness and hypocrisy of prohibition and its advocates. The story follows three men who try to “kill” Barleycorn in order work the land but in the end the work doesn’t get done “without a little barleycorn”. They couldn’t kill Sir John Barleycorn, he proved to be the strongest man at last.

Our favorite beer for a rainy fall day is our pumpkin coffee stout, the Basic B!%©#. #PSL #SoBasic

Thank you all for coming out to WCTE Blues & Brews Craft Beer Festival 2017 this year, we had a blast!
