Barking Rose Brewing Company + Farm

Great place! Can't wait for more options. Their current selection is currently limited.

Definitely worth a visit!
Great choice of beers, and bring your own food!
Dog-friendly as well!

Very tasty beers. Nice clean atmosphere inside and outside. Super friendly and kind staff. Definitely Gold.

Some of the best beer around in a beautiful scenic location.

I’ve enjoyed most of the farm breweries in this part of Virginia, but Barking Rose has the best and most consistent beer…maybe because they are mostly Belgian beers made for people who actually like the taste of beer. Most of these small breweries seem to go for some odd seasonal choices and ten different (but not different) IPAs so if you catch them on a bad week or season you may only have one non-IPA/fruit beer to drink. But Barking Rose always has an excellent core selection and even when they do do seasonal beers they don’t just dump pumpkin spice in a lager and call it a day. (Pumpkin spice is vile.) I’m a snob and a bit of a traditionalist and I can always find 4 or 5 offerings on their menu that I can enjoy. Often at other small breweries (or even big ones) it’s one or two. Barking Rose is the place that I get my 128 oz growler filled because I won’t get tired of whatever I choose to fill it with. If you actually like the flavor of beer, then this is the place.

My husband and I had to try this place. So very glad we did. Kim is a sweetheart and easy to talk to.

Location and the beer

Dog friendly brewery with large beer selection and lots of indoor and outdoor seating. Very friendly staff as well as weekly and monthly events.

Brewery is good and they have a nice selection of beer (stouts, ales, lagers - not just IPAs). The place is super dog friendly, which is a BIG PLUS for us, they have live music which is wonderful and a large indoor place (also dog friendly). Only reason giving them four stars is because they could do better with the outdoor space and create more shade by planting trees and perhaps installing picnic table umbrellas, or just trees!! There’s too much grass that can be better utilized but that’s just my opinion :)

The BEER is superior. Truly
The rest doesn’t matter… but it’s pretty good too?

Wonderful indoor and outdoor space and staff is incredibly friendly and accommodating! We came with a large group of family (age range from 2-83) and had a great experience. I look forward to going back and would highly recommend Barking Rose!

The beers are amazing and triva night is amazing!!

If your a fan of Belgian beer, this place is not going to scratch that itch. Beer was awful.

Had such a great time with Jo Ann. She was welcoming and nice and friendly. She knew all the beers and gave perfect recommendations.

The beer is fantastic and there is always a nice atmosphere. A quick turn off of Route 29 is definitely worth the trip!
