Valley Beer & Farm Trail

A driving loop through Northampton, Easthampton, and Hadley's brewpubs, mill-building microbreweries, and a century-old dairy farm

You learn more about a city from what it eats than from what it builds. Northampton has fed a lot of people. Five stops over 18.4 miles, about an hour of driving. The story for each stop plays as you arrive, so nothing has to be looked up and nobody has to be followed.

Northampton has five MassRoam tours and no two cover the same ground. It works as well at eight in the morning as it does at dusk. Stop for coffee, pick it back up.
