Breweries, Wineries, and Distilleries Using Maryland Grown Ingredients

When selecting an adult beverage, there are many options in Maryland to consider. Below is a list of breweries, wineries, and distilleries that are using locally-grown ingredients creating a true grain – or grape – to glass beverage. Many of these locations are farmers themselves or work closely with farmers in their areas. Why choose these products over others? By supporting these locations, you are directly impacting farmers in Maryland – allowing them to continue the practice of agriculture. Using local ingredients reduces travel time and keeps the dollar within our communities. Plus, we have award-winning wines, beers and liquors right here in our state!
