13 Best Craft Breweries in Virginia Beach

“Beer is good and staff is super friendly. I came right at open (noon) and chatted up the brewer. He was super down to earth and it was refreshing talking about beer with someone who actually knows it and not just a bartender who serves it but doesn’t have the in depth knowledge.“

“Great times to be had at this fine establishment.“

“The layout sets the vibe with and a rooftop area that overlooks the entire location. There is plenty of seating inside and outside. Lots of games for adults and kids to play. There is when a small putt putt golf area. I haven't tried the food but it all looks good. Plenty of drinks on tap and canned.“

“It was very dog friendly and I got to eat pizza crusts!“

“Stopped here on a whim because of the name of the business and my husband is a Veteran himself. He loves to support other Veterans. The food is absolutely amazing. We had the Chicken Bacon tacos and the Jalapeño burger. Appetizer, we had the crab dip. Yummy. The coffee blonde ale beer is soooo good. I've had coffee beers before but not in a blonde. Wow wow just wow!! Hubby is an IPA drinker and is loving them. You definitely need to come to this place. You are missing out if you don't. Thank you Young Veterans Brewery for your service.

Racheal (blonde hair) was our server. She was fabulous and very polite. Thanks Racheal!!“

“Great folks, great beer, and a nice mix of dog-friendly indoor and outdoor spaces. Well done, Reaver“

“I’ve always had a good time when I honor the Chesapeake location. I plan to check out the VA Beach location really soon. Great beer, great staff and fun events!!“

“Such a fun & inviting place!“

“Wide selection of beers, some hit or miss, but sometimes they do a lesser popular style with an amazing flare (Snatch you bald headed variants). Usually quiet (except on music bingo night lol) it’s a very home to the regulars place. Great service, good prices, and always a food truck worth trying out back.“

“I wish I could give 6 stars. Might be because we went on a Monday afternoon but the service, food and beers were incredibly top tier. And so fast. If I lived here I’d be here every week. Try the nachos and the smokehouse burger. The fries are insane. Do a beer flight.“

“Want to thank Common Wealth for having a super amazing barista, Brooke. Im always sad at the last sip of my coffee. (You guys have great beer too!!) Until my next coffee visit!!!“

“Carolyn was an amazing bartender! We went in with a Coors light lover and other beer drinkers. Carolyn was so helpful in select a beer to everyone’s liking. She was upbeat, personal and helpful. Every time I'm in VA beach. It's always been a great experience, but Carolyn made this one even better!“

“Me and my family had the BEST experience while dining here last night. Some of the best brew and food in VA beach hands down. Trudy was a gem and the other wait staff was so patient with our crazy crew. Thanks for being apart of such an special memory ❤️“
