DIRT RICH

THE DROWNED LANDS IS A FARM BREWERY FOUNDED AS A HOMAGE TO THE DIRT ON WHICH IT IS BUILT.

IT IS A CULMINATION OF YEARS OF EXPLORATION AND INSPIRATION FROM THE LAND. THE BEER WE CREATE TAKES ITS CUES FROM THE RICHEST SOIL IN THE COUNTRY - CONNECTED TO BOTH TIME AND PLACE - INSPIRED BY OLD WORLD TECHNIQUES AND MODERN INNOVATION.

ANYTHING WORTH DOING TAKES TIME, SO SLOW DOWN AND STAY AWHILE.

WHAT WE BELIEVE

WE BELIEVE THAT IN A WORLD QUICKLY APPROACHING 10,000 CRAFT BREWERIES, THE NEXT GENERATION OF GREAT BREWERIES WILL BE THE ONES THAT BEST CONNECT THE DRINKER FROM THE AGRICULTURE, THE SEASONS, THE DISTINCT AREA IN WHICH THE BEER IS BREWED - TO THE LIQUID ITSELF.

WE BELIEVE THE NOTION OF TERROIR - THE CHARACTER AND FLAVOR IMPARTED BY THE ENVIRONMENT IN WHICH IT IS PRODUCED - IS AN UNDER-EXPLORED CONCEPT IN AMERICAN CRAFT BEER AND ONE OF THE MOST INTERESTING EXPRESSIONS LEFT TO BE DISCOVERED.

WE CREATED THE DROWNED LANDS TO INTENTIONALLY SEEK OUT THESE CONCEPTS - TO MAKE EXCEPTIONAL CRAFT BEER THAT EXPRESSES THE NATIVE MINERAL PROFILE OF OUR WATER, THE SEASONALITY OF OUR LOCAL AGRICULTURE, THE IMPARTING TASTE OF THE LOCAL MICROBES IN OUR HOUSE MIXED-CULTURE - TO EXPRESS THE “IS-NESS” OF OUR LAND AND SHARE IT WITH YOU.
