After coming into the place I had to write some reviews about my experience. I read that they didnt have any extra ordinary beers.........hmmmm they had more off the wall hard to get beer than I have found anywhere. This guy Derek knows what he is doing. I was able to pick up Pliny, consecration, Angel share, older viscosity, deliverence, Knee Deep Simtra, Kern river outstanding, and about 5 different alpine beers. I was in Beer heaven. I cant even get into the meats because I would be typing for days. Hands down my new favorite. If you go ask for Derek (owner) he is more than accommodating. Cheers

Stopped in after I heard from a friend that this might be a little unknown hidden gem of a place to score some good beer. I also have been looking for a real butcher so I had to check this place out. The meat is amazing. Mostly choice cuts and some prime. Which is excellent since grocery chains in my area only carry select. The Butchers were very friendly and I met the owner Derrick who was stocking the beer shelves. He has plenty of knowledge about craft beer. We chatted for a few minutes while I tried to take mental notes of what he had. Lots of good local beers that makes Valley Farm a great place for us locals that is off the beat and path. It’s kinda that place you enjoy before it really gets discovered. You hope the owner does well and his business explodes but then again you hope it stays quiet just the way it is. You won’t be disapointed by the selection. Nothing extremely rare. They had all the locals including some from Manzanita. I found it lacking one prominent local brewer. Alpine had nothing on the shelves. That to me is disapointing. Alpine deserves representation in this type of setting. I was actually going to buy some Sculpin or Exponential if he had it. He said they would be in a month. Probably too late for Expo though. I did see a bottle or two of Alesmith Summer Yulesmith which makes me believe there might be some other hidden gems sitting on the shelf. I will be returning this weekend to investigate along with picking up some Brisket for the smoker. Peace! Cheers.

Decent family type grocery store. Good selection of local brews, along with all of the usual macros. Some unusual imports. I was surprised by the quality of the brews. Nothing to go crazy about, but still had some solid stuff. Prices are pretty good for the most part. I like the fact that they sell singles as well. Very good meat counter if you desire some carne. Best place I know of in this part of town.
