This past weekend, I had the chance to go to Charlottesville, Virginia to visit one of my best friends. While it was only a short visit, we jam-packed as much as we could into the day and a half I was there. This included going on a tour of some local breweries with a group of friends.
We visited three breweries, tasted lots of beer, and enjoyed some really gorgeous weather. There is nothing like sitting outside on a nice day and enjoying good food, drink and company. ♥
First stop, Devils Backbone Brewing Company. Not only did we taste some good beer here but we also had a lovely alfresco lunch.
Next stop, Blue Mountain Brewery. We had beers and snacks out on the patio under a beautiful pergola with the mountains surrounding us. It was fabulous.
Last stop, Starr Hill Brewery. Probably the most well-known brewery out of the three that we visited. It had a very cool, hip vibe and you have to love free beer samples. :)
“A fine beer may be judged with only one sip, but it’s better to be thoroughly sure.” ~ Czech proverb. :)
Cheers!
great pictures…looks like mucho fun
Thanks! And it definitely was! :)
How fun – beer tasting tour instead of wine! The breweries here need to offer free tastings ;)
It was so much fun! And the free beer definitely didn’t hurt. :)
Love the Czech proverb :)
It made me chuckle and I just had to share. :)
Awesome photos! How do you get that slightly cloudy look on them?
Great post! I’m not a big beer fan but my husband is. He’d love to do all those beer tasting. ;-)
I have never been much of a beer drinker either but in the last year, I have gotten more into it so doing the beer tastings was really fun! :)
I agree!!
I love all of your pictures, especially the one with the grapes and cheese.
Thanks! I really liked that one too!
I absolutely love this post! So beautiful, all your photos are amazing.
