Our staff always jokes about how cool stuff is always happening on Friday mornings here at Hix. Last week, we were on a podcast called Craft Beers and Cheat Meals with the Clydesdale Crossfitter. This week there’s a music video being shot in the brewery. We’ll definitely be sharing that when it’s released, so keep an eye out! We’re open now until 11 and we’ll have Mark’s Specialty Seafood here with us tonight! So stop by and get your Hix fix, y’all. 🍻

The taproom got a little bit of love today! We brightened up the place by bringing the green from the outside of the building into the taproom. We also picked up an antique hutch from the farm and made it into storage for our activities. We’re open until 10, come check it out! 🍻

It’s a good day for a beer, Cookeville! 🍻 We’re excited to have Yuri made by @vonseitz_theoreticales on tap. It’s a smoked sea salt dark barrel aged sour and it’s as delicious as it is unique!

Hix Farm Brewery: it’s more than a name, it’s Tennessee history 🍻

2019 was a year of learning, recovery, and growth for us at Hix Farm. In the last year, we’ve seen tremendous change. We started the year struggling with a new larger brew system, but by spring we started to get our feet under us and now we have an entirely new selection of beers focused on local farmhouse character. We have a great new team of staff who’ve helped us realize our vision for the brewery and grown our sales month over month to new records. The moth of December ended the year with six times the sales that we started the year with in January. The brewery was started to support the historic Hix Farm outside Gainesboro by growing hops and this past year our farm’s first sizeable harvest of hops was put to good use in our Hix Harvest Wet Hop DIPA. Doing right by the farm and our community is the cornerstone of our business and over the past year, Hix Farm Brewery was honored to host dozens of local musicians, artists, charities, comedians, and craftsmen. Customers who leave with a positive experience are the best reward for all the work we’ve put in this year, so a huge thank you to all of you who’ve enjoyed our craft with us!

For 2020, we’re not letting up. More food options, more music, more artists, more merchandise, and more events are in the works. We’re going to continue to focus on consistently high-quality brews featuring local ingredients. Keeping the fan favorites on tap while rotating in exciting seasonal flavors. We’re also working with other local breweries to collaborate on some upcoming brews and support building a positive culture of mutual success in our industry. Our goal for 2020 is to grow our distribution outside the county and to continue to get our beer on tap in more places. Let us know what you’d like to see, we’re always listening and working hard to improve.

Meet our Beertender, Bri 🍻
How Long have you worked for Hix Farm Brewery? Roughly two months ago.

What’s your favorite beer style? Farmhouse Ales or Fruited Sour Beers

What’s your favorite Hix Farm Brew? I love First Frost!
What’s your favorite beer from another brewery? This is a hard one. It is a tie between Madtree Thundersnow or Operation Plowshare by Urban Artifact.

How did you get into beer/brewing/bartending? I was on a brewery tour at Mantra Artisan Ales and the tour guide was explaining the brewing process and it was the most fascinating thing to me. I started exploring various breweries and reading every beer related book I could get my hands on. I started seeking out jobs where there was a focus on craft beer. My first brewery job was at Madtree Brewing in Cincinnati. It was so exciting to walk in and be able to tell when they had been brewing because it always smelled amazing! I am currently working on my next level of the Cicerone & I try to get hands on with brewing any chance I get with Hix & VonSeitz TheoreticAles. My life goal is to own a brewery/head brewer.
Where are you from and what brought you to Cookeville TN? I am from Cincinnati, OH (FC CINCINNATI WOOO) & I came to Cookeville after my parents moved down here.

What are your hobbies outside of work? I love hiking, kayaking, reading (especially beer books), crafting, concerts, and makeup.

Do you have a second job or side hustle?
Hix is actually my second job! I do graphics design as my primary job. I am working on starting up an Etsy account for my crafts & I also run a side business on Poshmark & Mercari.

If you could share a beer with anyone, dead or alive, who would it be? Hmm... This is a toss up between my Grandpa & my friend Rob. Both have passed away and I miss them both.

If you were playing two truths and a lie what would you tell people to try and stump them? 🍻 I am obsessed with poutine & chicken tikka marsala. 🍻I used to be a makeup artist. 🍻My favorite sci-fi is Star Trek.

We’re super excited to have some retail items in the taproom just in time for Christmas! We’ve got more coming, but we’ve got some stock out and ready to sell. From dog treats made from spent malted barley, to super rad hiking journals we’ve got some cool stuff in stock. Stop by and browse!

We’re going to be closed on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, friends! We just wanted to go ahead and let you know so that you can plan to come by and grab a growler of your favorite beer to take along with you for your Christmas celebrations! 🎄 Until then, we’re open normal hours and we hear that beer is the perfect solution for that last minute shopping stress.🍻

Last night, we had some visitors from Stellwagen Beer Company stop in the taproom. Stellwagen Beer Company is a microbrewery located in Marshfield, Massachusetts. We had some great conversation over beer and barbecue and we hope to visit their brewery in the near future! Here’s to good beer, good friends, and good beer friends 🍻
