Brewer Magazine: Why Hill Farmstead Stayed Small on Purpose

Recorded in 2019, this archived conversation with Sean Hill of Hill Farmstead Brewery feels even more relevant in 2026. Sean shares how Hill Farmstead built a destination, on‑site‑only model inside strict land, water, and capacity limits and why he resisted chasing distribution, satellite taprooms, and hype‑driven growth. If you’re a brewery owner or decision maker wrestling with growth, distribution, and taproom strategy in a crowded market, this archive offers a clear, alternative playbook for long‑term durability that still resonates years later.
