Gone 2 Paradise
strives to capture the essence of the legendary singer-songwriter with each and
every performance that elicits island vibes and a beachy frame of mind. The
group has traveled across the US, performing at a range of events and venues.
Zorn Brew Works
has been brewing up craft beer since 2017 in a spot that was renovated and
reborn after sitting idle for 79 years. Launched by Philip Zorn Jr. in 1871, the
original brewery churned out 15,000 barrels of beer a year from a local spring
and a prohibition-era soft drink, Zoro, until closing in 1938.
Today, new
brews flow in the taproom that is in the former carriage house along with nosh
options such as sandwiches, pizza, appetizers and more. Additional space on the
Zorn campus is available for special events and catering and weekly free live
music is in The Backyard at Zorn. History shines through with original building
pieces remaining in place, including brickwork, beams and floors.
