6 Acres Farm Brewery

Fresh fruit and produce from the farm go straight into the beer at 6 Acres Farm Brewery, a New York State licensed farm brewery in Mexico, in Oswego County. The brewers grow and brew their own craft beer, and the approach is a little different from a typical brewery.

The brewers also buy from other local farms and businesses. As a farm brewery, it uses at least 60 percent New York-grown hops and other ingredients, and several recipes come close to or reach 100 percent. That makes each pour a taste of the state’s farmland.
