Where this comes from
OpenStreetMap, the free map anyone can fix, read 2026-11-10: what is mapped as a brewery, a distillery, a winery or cidery, or a pub or restaurant that brews its own. On foot along OpenStreetMap's paths from the centre of the town; by road for the rest. Not ranked, and nothing paid puts a place here. Hours and tastings are each one's own: check their page.
