Trip is based off of this article in Draft Magazine.

Drove from Maryland down to the Charlottesville area in VA. Luckily, there was almost no traffic, leaving at around 2pm. First stop: Starr Hill Brewery! They don’t have a restaurant, just a tasting room at the bottling facility. Inexpensive sampler. Of all the Breweries in this area, the most polished and best tasting top to bottom. Picked-up a cool Roostar Beer/Coffee Sampler (Coffee and Beer: The Dynamic Duo!)


Checked into the Afton Mountain Bed and Breakfast . Everything was great at the Inn. We had substitute innkeepers, but everything was delicious and we rested well the entire weekend. Went to Blue Mountain Brewery for dinner. Beer Sampler and Pizza. The pizza was very, very cheesey (which is a good thing). Beers were mostly decent, nothing that was amazing. The Evil 8 Belgian-Style Dubbel stood out though.

If you want more into my thoughts on individual brews, let me know and you can follow me on BrewGene.
