14 Best Craft Breweries in Virginia Beach

“This place deserves more credit than their ranking. Giving this place 5 stars because the service was excellent, beer was some of the best I've had in a long while and their Gouda burger was amazing. 100% will be back to support this business.“

“While travelings from Texas for family business, I was able to take some time and visit this brewer. This was the fourth brewery I visited. I have been brewing for over ten years and when I travel, I do my best to stop into the local breweries. One the name caught my attention. My family is in law enforcement and I am a paramedic. It was nice and I was felt welcomed. The beer was great and staff friendly. Set up had it's own uniqueness. It is nice to see a brewery dedicated to those who serve and served. This has been the best brewery that I visited. This will definitely be on list to visit again the next time I am in the Virginia Beach area. Cheers, Mike Hutto, Tx“

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

“I travel all over VA and I have never had such a wonderful experience as I did at this brewery, April and Jeremy were amazing, I tried 5 different beers and all were amazing!10/10 would recommend coming here for whatever small reason you can think of“

“This place is a total gem! A must visit while in Virginia Beach. Quaint, hidden away, and friendly vibe. Awesome beers and the Moon Tide food truck food was delicious. The staff was phenomenal. Treated every customer with a friendly smile and they were super courteous. The decor, design, and patrons were simply welcoming—a place where you will want to be a regular!“

“Good laugh, I don't like beer and rarely drink a glass of wine. But this is a great place to come. I had the fish and chips..but substitute salad.. the food is not typical bar food. Looks like it on the menu but the taste tells you something different. I love the decor and the outdoor area. Signs everywhere with activities. Definitely a returnable place. Jenifer our waitress was amazing server. Despite it being busy she was attentive.“

“I hosted a small gathering at Back Bay last week. They were extremely informative and helpful throughout my process planning the gathering. Additionally, they connected me with a caterer who provided absolutely phenomenal food--highly recommend going with their catering if you are hosting something. The space itself is absolutely gorgeous, inside and out. It felt like somewhere that all people would enjoy and feel comfortable, with lots of different types of spaces to suit various needs. The beer is also delicious. Staff were friendly and extremely helpful and personable. All in all, we had a great time and I can't wait to go back on my own.“

“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.“

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

“Small brewery with a couple of good ciders options, gets very crowded and loud for such a small venue. -1 star for not having water, pop, or other non-alcohol options, but at least there's a Mexican place next door with those options and the Back Bay folks don't mind if you bring in outside food/drink.“

“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!!“

“Easy to get in and out of the parking lot! It's a big space with both indoor and outdoor seating. I preferred the back seating area indoors because it was quieter and less crowded. It is loud and drafty since it's essentially a big warehouse, so dress warmly if you go in the wintertime!“

“Great food, drinks and live music options. Amazing and friendly staff with a from scratch kitchen that is to die for.“
