I was already not in the mood for anymore drinking after spending a weekend in a major tournament in Lynchburg. Anyways, for a Saturday evening, this place was pretty packed both inside and outside. We both ended up getting a flight of beers each and every one was great. The food surprised me as my fish tacos was super fresh. The chips and queso was also great. Overall, a must see - especially for the view of the mountains if you decided to eat outdoors.

Brewery # 445…read more Devil's Backbone is a very large operation it seems. They make beer, the make bourbon, and they make food. They just do them all very slowly or at least they did when I was there. We came here on a Monday evening, and it was somewhat busy but there were visible empty tables and a couple spots at the bar. We went to the bar and waited awhile before the bartender asked what we wanted. I didn't ask for a flight because he seemed too busy. Whatever I wanted they were out of, but I ended up with an Imperial 16-point IPA which was quite tasty. I also got some chicken nachos, but I had to go stand in line to order them. They were adequate but not worth the wait. The place was very disorganized. They had workers always standing by the hostess desk, but the bartender was overwhelmed. Seemed like they should have had more than one, after all it is a brewery. Would have loved to try more beer but we just left and went back into Lexington for another round at another place. I don't know maybe it was just a bad night.

Mrs. K. and I had the other half of our Publix subs. I wanted a beer with it and so we landed here at Starr Hill. The lovely Olivia took great care of us, pouring my beer and preparing a fabulous mocktail for Mrs. K. We enjoyed them very much and the sandwiches were pretty good too! It was a very quiet Saturday night in Starr Hill. It was easy to get a parking spot right out front and we had the front table to watch folks climbing the hill from the river. Good music, a peaceful vibe. Definitely a spot to enjoy! [Review 1103 of 2026 - 1554 in Virginia - 26282 overall]

We were visiting the area and wanted to check out a local brewery…read more We arrived shortly after 7pm after parking in a small parking garage down the street since their parking lot was full. It was a beautiful fall evening and there were a good number of people enjoying both the outdoor and indoor spaces. We made our way inside and were impressed they also had a live band playing on the stage. We looked around a bit, enjoying the industrial feel of the building and the music. We took a place in line and ultimately I chose a pint of the Bareback Bronco IPA. We love good swag so we made our way to look at the offerings. My wife quickly commented on their cute and clever designs which are printed on soft, comfortable cotton shirts, hoodies, etc. They also had a good selection of assorted discount t shirts available in small, xxl and xxxl sizes. The band engaged the audience with the Chris Stapleton favorite, Tennessee Whiskey which was fun. We ultimately decided to enjoy one of the high top tables outside while I drank my beer, which I enjoyed and ended up purchasing an additional 4-pack for our long weekend in Roanoke. Great stop, if you enjoy local breweries, make sure to stop in. We noticed they are also open Sundays. We did see some people with food that appeared to either have been delivered or they brought with them.

Brewery# 450 Blue…read moreMountain brewery has 2 locations, this one and one in Afton, VA. My buddy and I showed up to this huge operation, and it was pretty empty. The outdoor area looked nice, but I didn't really explore too much because it was like 100 degrees outside. I got a flight of 5 beers: Monticello Mountain Ale, Rockfish Wheat, Full Nelson Pale Ale, Tangerine Kolsch, and a Phased Hazy IPA. The beers were pretty good except the Tangerine Kolsch tasted off. My favorite was probably the Nelson Pale Ale. I also ordered some buffalo wings and fries and it was all solid. Cool place, decent beer, good food and quality service.

The food menu is very limited, but our bbq sandwiches were absolutely delicious. It was the beertender's (Tyler's) first day and he impressed me as someone who has worked there for years. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and fast. I had a pecan Oktoberfest and the Bobby Dazzler New Zealand Pils; both very flavorful. The Brimstone Bistro delivers your food order from the building next door. We both ordered the Brimstone Brisket sandwich. Perfect portion for us both. The atmosphere was friendly as well. Two customers brought their dogs, which we love. There is a huge outdoor seating area as well as roomy interior. Outdoor tables are covered with shade canopies. This place is a gem and we will be back for sure.

We enjoy visiting local breweries and decided to stop in at AFOG on a Sunday evening at 6:30pm…read moreafter calling and confirming their hours. The brewery was easy to find and we originally thought it was housed inside an old school building but later learned it was previously a health services building. In addition to AFOG, there are also residential apartments in the remaining adjoining part of the building. There is a large outdoor area where a birthday celebration was happening amongst a small group. We proceeded inside and were immediately greeted by Sam. She helped me identify the IPA options and i immediately chose their Millennial Serum, which is a hazy imperial style that I enjoy. We looked around a bit, snapped some photos and looked at their swag. I'm a big tie dye guy and I was happy to see they had a great selection of AFOG tie dye shirts in my size. We decided to sit at the bar while I enjoyed my beer and chatted about our day. We also enjoyed talking with Sam and learning more about the brewery. We learned they are soon opening their second location in Buchanan, Virginia. Great stop, we felt welcomed, the beer was delicious and I have a new tie dye that will remind me of our time in Roanoke.
