What we’re about
The Upper Bucks County/Lehigh Valley area has become a hotbed of activity in the beer and wine world in recent years and this group will explore this booming part of our local economy and culture.
There are more than 20 microbreweries in this region and more than 30 wineries. Brewpubs, craft beer bars and wine bars are also fair game for this group. We'll learn about the beer and wine-making process and of course get to sample the fruits of our local entrepreneurs' labors.
Expect monthly meetups, tours, tastings and just hanging out, making new friends and enjoying good times, and maybe some scenic views in the process. Whether you're into beer, wine or both, or just interested in exploring and getting to know the area better, this group is for you.
No dues, fees or cover charges, this is a fun thing for me, not a side hustle.
See you on the trail!

More Fall Fun at Richmond Farm & Brewery
Richmond farm and brewery , 1290 five points Richmond rd,, Bangor , PA, USWe'll continue our celebration of fall by heading up to Bangor to visit the Richmond Farm & Brewery.
Located on the old Diehly Farm in the village of Richmond (Washington Township, Northampton County), Richmond Farm & Brewery sits in a restored 1920s barn. Check out the photos on their website, they did an amazing job turning an abandoned, dilapidated old barn into their brewery and restaurant space. The 1-barrel brewing system is located in the barn's cellar, with the tap room and full-service restaurant on the main level. It's a working farm today with corn fields and farm animals.
Not only is this the Lehigh Valley's first barn brewery but it's one of the few breweries in the area with a female brewmaster: Maria Sebastionelli. Eric and Milissa Smith, who both grew up in the area, own the brewery, which opened in 2021.
Meet for drinks and lunch at 1 p.m. This is a full-service restaurant so I'll need to make a reservation. Enjoy the peak fall foliage on your way there and a rustic, country atmosphere when you arrive.
Though this brewery is not in this year's Lehigh Valley Brewers Guild passport, perhaps we can visit Allegheny Creek Brewing, about 4 miles up the road in Mt. Bethel, afterwards for a post-lunch brew and a passport stamp.
See you there!
