Brewery Profile

Justus Orchard Taproom

For visitors moving through Hendersonville’s brewery and taproom options, this stop stands apart because the beer counter is part of an operating orchard rather than a standalone barroom. The Justus family has run the farm for four generations, with apples, pears, and blackberries remaining central to the business. When guests arrive, the Taproom functions as a newer addition to a broader farm visit that also includes the Apple House and farm store. The setting is agricultural first: U-Pick and We-Pick fruit, seasonal produce, baked goods, and family activities are part of the same property experience.

Travelers in this part of North Carolina often look for outings that combine local food, farm scenery, and a casual drink stop. Justus Orchard Taproom fits that pattern by pairing a taproom visit with orchard activities rather than focusing only on a beer list. Specific house beers or styles are not provided here, so visitors seeking a particular pour should treat the taproom board as the source for the day’s options. The broader appeal is the ability to add a drink stop to a farm day that may already include apple cider donuts, fried apple pies, local preserves, honey, pumpkins, mountain cabbage, or fresh fruit when available.

Practical planning should start with the fact that this is an orchard property with multiple attractions, not just a taproom. Families may find activities such as the jumping pillow, apple cannons, and Cow Train ride through the acreage, while shoppers can browse the Apple House and farm store. Seasonal timing matters for fruit, baked items, and produce, so availability can vary. Since taproom details such as current pours, hours, seating policies, and food service are not specified here, the taproom itself is the place to confirm what is being served that day and how it fits with the rest of the farm visit.

The Justus family has operated this Hendersonville, North Carolina orchard for four generations, primarily focused on growing apples, pears, and blackberries. While the core business remains agricultural—offering U-Pick and We-Pick options—a new Taproom facility was recently added to the property. The site features extensive farm activities, including a jumping pillow, apple cannons, and a Cow Train ride through the acreage. The associated bakery produces seasonal items such as apple cider donuts and fried apple pies, alongside the sale of local preserves, honey, and fresh produce like pumpkins and mountain cabbage. The Taproom serves as an additional on-site attraction complementing the established Apple House and farm store operations.
