Cortland Beer Company & Farm Distillery

Cortland Beer Company & Farm Distillery is a brewery and distillery in historic downtown Cortland. It began as a grassroots effort to bring a brewery to the downtown, and it opened its doors in 2010. Cortland is nicknamed the Crown City, and the brewery is one of its downtown draws.

At first all the beer was sold to go, with samples poured straight from the brewing facility. In 2012 the company committed to becoming a farm brewery that uses local ingredients. Now visitors can sit down for draughts and flights, or take home kegs, growlers and cans.
