My friends and I decided to visit this distillery and we were all so happy we did…read more It was very welcoming and had that homey feeling where everyone knew each other. We each got a couple of drinks and we split two appetizers, and everything was very good. I opted for the Bonfire Buzz, which was one of the tastiest rum drinks I've had. It's made with spiced rum, apple cider and ginger beer, and definitely had a kick. We split the Red Eyed Goat and Finklestien's Nachos and both were really good. My other friend got the Beef on Weck sandwich with a side of mac and cheese and really enjoyed his meal. In addition to spirits and mixed drinks, they also offer beer and wine. This a cute place that gives back to the community, and is well worth a visit.

Went out here to go camping nearby and this place is a pretty solid gem within this local area…read more When they get busy parking can get a bit busy. Just note that there is extra parking behind the building. There aren't many great food / dining options within the local area but this place really is a great place in any area. The customer service is great, food is delicious, and the atmosphere is comfy. It was so nice for us that we actually came back twice during a 4 day vacation! :) Recommendation: You have to try the tomato pie dip. It's so delicious. If you're in the area, it's absolutely worth the visit. Food Taste: 5 Overall Service: 5 Value of service to cost: 5 Facility: 5 Ambiance: Small bar that's quaint and open. I enjoyed the decor within. Repeat customer: yes! Dog Friendly: I didn't ask - but maybe the patio?

They offer both cocktails and flights Their founders series Wheat, Bourbon and Rye are single grain (100% wheat, 100% corn, 100% Rye respectively) perfect for sipping. Hunter Scott is for mixing and then they have their speciality Hollands series They have the standard versions of Manhattan and Old Fashions, as well as a rotation of seasonal specials Everyone who works their is super friendly and will take the time to talk about their spirits - Mike is our favorite!

When we entered, we found the two owners, a husband and wife, talking to a group of customers. The wife said as soon as she saw our car pull in, she knew she had to come from the house next door and help her husband. They have been married for over 40 years and really should be a comedy team, very entertaining to listen to their back and forth banter! My friend opted for a Moscow Mule made with their Apple Pie moonshine (or as they call it, "Gooch Hooch"), and she said her drink was delicious. I decided to get a flight of their Apple Pie, Blueberry and Blackberry moonshine. The Apple Pie flavor was definitely my favorite, but the owners said the Lemon and Blackberry were their most popular. They also make several whiskeys, bourbon and gin for those with more adult tastes, lol! Their tasting room is on the smaller size, but is cozy and owners definitely make it entertaining. They've got great outdoor spaces for the warmer weather. My friend and I had a good time and would definitely come back.

Acoustics are loud in here! Say what?? I said... oh never mind! Today this distillery was…read moreeverything but still. Full of folks having a good times and getting into the "spirit" of things! If you are in the Goochland area, this cool distillery is worth a gander! As the name states, it's atop of a hill, surrounded by a forest in a rustic setting. There are two fire pits, which we snuggled around while we sipped our libations. Also a stage is on the grounds when there's live music here! Inside is small, a few tables, a bar, and shelves of hooch for sale! They offer other gifts as well, soaps, coffee, chocolates - I bought several!! We also purchased some of the blackberry moonshine they make, which the owner made into a nice presentation with a galvanized bucket and the other items we chose all wrapped up! It make a wonderful gift! The liquors are mostly bourbon whiskey, scotch, rye, vodka and moonshine. My hubby tried a flight, and I had a coffee/kahlua/whiskey drink - I'm not much of a liquor drinker, a bit strong for me, but it was pretty good! We also got a tour of the distillery and it was so cool seeing all the machinery and how the distilling process is done! The owners are super sweet and hospitable! We would definitely give this place another "shot" whenever we are in the neighborhood! I can't wait til it's warmer and they have live bands!!

First stop into the Ballast tasting room and loved our visit…read more There's 2 different inside seating spaces and outdoor seating.

I stumbled upon them one day while just hanging out on Lombardy and I've been a fan ever since. They are known for their Limoncello which can be used in an Lemon Drop or poured over gingerbread if that's your thing. They also have a few flavored vodkas, moonshine, whiskeys and gins. During my recent visit I tried the Yule Mule and it was delicious! I am a huge mule fan and this is the best one I had this holiday season. The mix of grapefruit, moonshine and ginger beer was very light and refreshing. The service is amazing. The owners and distillers are very friendly and knowledgeable. They don't mind sharing their "trials and errors" and no idea is too big or small when it comes to distilling. Outside of being a distillery, they also have wine, meat, cheese, smoked salmon and all things pasta that can be purchased onsite.

Intermission Beer Company in Glen Allen, VA is a great local spot. I visited on a trivia night and…read morewas impressed by how welcoming everyone was. The staff and trivia group were friendly and even invited me to join their team. The taproom has a relaxed and creative vibe with plenty of board games and fun sci-fi and fantasy decor. It reminded me of the early Austin craft brewery scene with an authentic and laid back feel. Their merch also stood out. The shirts were unique and surprisingly affordable. If you enjoy shirts with dogs and beer then get one here! Overall this is a fun brewery with friendly people and a cool atmosphere. I would happily come back and recommend it to anyone in the area or just visiting for work like I was.

I explained to the guy that I had never been there and didn't know much about their beer. He gave me very little help. I decided to get a 5 beer sampler of beers he said weren't too hoppy. I didn't really care for any of them and was a bit disappointed that he never checked in on me (remember, I was the only customer). He was focused on his laptop almost the entire time. This was pricier than other breweries and after my experience, this is not someplace I'd revisit.

My husband has been in Richmond for work before and he had remembered this spot once we were inside - he remembered it being very good! We sat at the bar and were helped immediately. We had great service the whole time, even after we paid. I needed a little snack so we endured in their loaded beer cheese fries and they were fantastic. Tons of flavor and the perfect pick me up. They had a lot of great beers, something for everyone, and other drink options for the non-beer drinkers. Overall, a great experience. If we were with friends, we could have spent all day chillin' here and hanging out. Great spot!

It was a short little walk and along the way there were plenty of other places to grab drinks if you're looking for a pub crawl type vibe. However, if you want to just stay here a few hours, I don't think you will be disappointed. I don't drink much; I never cared for the taste of alcohol. When I drink I seek for things that don't really taste like it at all. They let me sample the pineapple upside down cake cider and it was sweet enough to give me an option to enjoy! We met a handsome guy named Benjamin, who said it was his first day on the clock, so we assured him we would give him a hassle to commemorate the occasion. He was super helpful in suggesting a dry cider for her to enjoy! The other employee I spoke to was also super nice. I'm thinking about moving to the area and I asked him about rental prices in the area. He was kind enough to offer some insight! It's a massive location with tons of seating indoors and out. They had a fun, large Jenga game you could play but you could easily bring your own board games in. Oh and they also had dole whip?! Unsure if it was dairy-free friendly as I didn't have any but I thought that was a fun unique quirk of the place. I definitely suggest checking it out! Perfect for a casual but cute date night with a romantic interest or to spend time with friends!
