Enjoy A Farm-To-Glass Brewing Experience At This Unique Brewery In Iowa

The small town of Lisbon is just outside of the Cedar Rapids metropolitan area, and it's developed a unique culture of its own. However, to find the most unique spot in the area, you'll have to head about two miles south, into the heart of farm country. That's where you'll find Sutliff Farm & Cider House, the most unique Iowa farm brewery around. This old-fashioned farmstand features a restaurant, a farmer's market - and a specialty business in hard cider made from fresh apples from the orchard. Hard cider may not be as well-known as beer yet, but those who love partaking know it's one of the most refreshing beverages around. Thus farm-to-glass brewing experience is so much more than a drink - it's a destination, and you'll want to spend the whole day exploring Sutliff Farm.

As you travel on the outskirts of Lisbon, Iowa, keep an eye out for the Sutliff Farm sign - it's your ticket to a delicious experience.

Located on an old-fashioned farmstand, you can identify it by the massive weathered barn holding the facilities.

This is a working farm, and tours are available during the warmer months. You can regularly see working horses on the grounds.

All the ciders and hard seltzers made at Sutliff are brewed on-site, from apples picked in the local orchards.

And of course, you can head to the Cider House for a tasting flight! The farm has a regular rotation as well as new flavors all the time.

It wouldn't be a cider tasting without some food. The Cider House has a full menu of country-style delights, including some acclaimed barbecue.

There is even live music during the summer - the perfect accompaniment to a great meal and great drinks.

Sutliff Cider is available at many top groceries around Iowa, but you can pick up a six-pack - or more - to go at the concessionaire before you leave!
