Peace, Love, and Beer!

That's what this issue of Virginia Craft Beer Magazine is all about!

The dog days of summer are almost here and we've put together a list of thirst quenching beers to keep you cool in our lawnmower beer cover story.

June is Pride month and we’ll take a look at the special beers and events that breweries across the Commonwealth are creating and hosting to spread a message of love, acceptance, and inclusion.

In another gesture of solidarity, craft breweries throughout Virginia and around the world have come together to collaborate on beers to support humanitarian efforts in Ukraine.

Additionally, our Northern Virginia writers Jeff Evans and Chuck Triplet pay tribute to Black Hoof brewer Dean Lake. And, Jennifer Waldera tells us about the appeal of bingo and other retro games at breweries.

rryved, a Colorado-based hospitality industry marketing and consulting firm, has recently released its 2022 Craft Brewing Growth Trends Report. Many of the results will confirm what most in the beer business already know.

The report begins with this statement:“The brewing landscape has gone through a pandemic-induced evolution, and things will continue to change as breweries head into an uncertain future. But this much is certain: breweries are choosing to lean in, adapt, and wow as they prove resilience time and time again.”

Breweries come in all sizes with different business models. Their research shows 59% of craft breweries have the goal of being known as a neighborhood establishment, while 39% ultimately aim to have multiple taprooms. Just 12% have a goal to distribute regionally. 5% plan to distribute nationally, a more than challenging goal given the competitiveness of established nationwide brands such as Sierra Nevada, Bell’s,Yuengling, and Sam Adams.

According to Arryved, a growing trend is craft breweries offering food service. Some 45% of breweries nationwide said they do serve food, 43% do not, but 12% plan to offer food in-house in the future.

This is an interesting development because operating an in-house kitchen was seen as a financial barrier to operating a craft brewery and a major reason for the passing of SB604 in 2012 in Virginia which allows breweries to operate a taproom and serve beer directly to customers without operating as a brewpub (brewery/ restaurant combined).

Some good news: 76% of surveyed breweries project growth in 2022. Given the easing of Covid restrictions, this isn’t a surprise.

Perhaps, it is even a lower than expected number.We’ll see.

How did craft breweries perform in 2021? Some 62% reported sales growth, with 59% of those polled saying revenue increased 11-40%.

Inflation nation? Yes, about 73% of breweries anticipate increasing prices in 2022.

Where are craft breweries selling their beers? About 65% of sales are done directly at the brewery; just over 30% is sold in retail stores and restaurants/bars, and roughly 5% through online delivery services.

Another big number: Nearly 84% of brewery profit comes from sales in their own taproom.

What’s on the nix list for 2022? High ABV beers, growler sales, cans/bottles for in-house consumption.

Trending upward: expanding brand awareness and releasing more beer in cans.

Bottom line: craft beer continues to boom.

A cold beer on a warm, summer day

That is quite the magical combination of words.

Magical because of the images it conjures up – a cold glass in your warm hands, condensation dripping down the sides. The anticipation of that first sip, the refreshing, “Ahhh,” that follows.

It’s the kind of “Ahhh,” that only a cold beer on a warm, summer day can elicit.

A patio changes everything.

Thankfully, the Fairfax County Breweries are home to some pretty fantastic patios to go along with their fantastic craft beers. But what makes a beer on a patio so special? Is it the people we’re with?

Is it finally getting out from behind that computer screen? Is it the fresh air? Is it finally being able to get outside after being cooped up all winter?

FACT: Beer just tastes better outside.

Always has, always will. Away from the walls, away from the ceilings, away from confinement, drinking a beer outside is a celebration of freedom. And drinking a cold beer outside on a summer day… that’s heavenly. We’re inviting you to make it a locally poured craft beer from any of our Fairfax County Breweries. Many have won awards and many of the ones that haven’t, should have.

Go out. Try a new beer on a new patio at a new brewery you’ve never tried. You have nothing to lose. The worst that could happen is you got to drink a cold beer on gorgeous summer day. Outside.

And it doesn’t matter if you’ve been working out in the yard all day, the end result is going to be the same – “Ahhh.”

Fresh Look for Smartmouth &

Virginia Beer Company

By Jeff Maisey

S

martmouth Brewing Company, with locations in Norfolk and Virginia Beach, is marking its 10th anniversary later this year.

Virginia Beer Company, headquartered in Williamsburg, is celebrating its 6th birthday.

Both decided now was the time to revamp their packaging.

Following is an excerpt from a lengthy interview conducted with Smartmouth founding president Porter Hardy and Robby Willey, the co-founder and managing member of Virginia Beer Company.

They have experience with breweries but work with a number of other industries and we really just gelled with them. We are both small, family-run, Virginia companies and it just felt right from the first conversation.

Willey: This brand refresh has two main objectives. We see it as an opportunity to add elements to our can designs that we felt were lacking in a broader, more modern craft beer market.

But, we also wanted to double down on the classic messages that our cans were already sending about our brand. We love that feedback about our cans typically highlights their classic, sleek, and understated elements; which made them feel vintage even when they were originally designed in 2016.

Many established craft breweries have updated their branding in the past couple of years. What led your team to move forward with a brand refresh now regarding flagship cans?

Hardy: We’ve been thinking about it for a while now, but with our 10th anniversary this year it just seemed like the perfect time to give ourselves a little present.

Willey: The Virginia Beer Company has changed in 6 years.

More beers. More markets. More voices. We have constantly evolved our rotation of offerings (more than tripling the number of beers released per year in the last two years alone) while expanding throughout Virginia, into New York, and overseas. Our physical location in Williamsburg has undergone dramatic changes with expansions, new equipment, and fresh vibes. And, our family has grown. We want to make sure that the beers at the core of our business — the recipes that built Virginia Beer Co.’s foundation — are reflective of the evolution, growth, and people that make up The Virginia Beer Company, now and in the future.

Did you use the same design firm (as your original) for the new packaging or someone new?

Hardy: We interviewed several companies from around the country, but ended up selecting 903 Creative out of Richmond.

- 12 -

JUNE 2022

This project at its core is a continuation of doing what we’ve been doing; and as a team, we were confident that the same designer who originally helped us to envision a VBC can lineup that could convey those feelings could accomplish the same again with a sharper, more nuanced approach for 2022.

What are the strengths in the new design that most appealed to your team?

Hardy: One thing is that these cans definitely pop out off the shelf. There is so much going on in the beer coolers at the grocery store that we knew we needed to enhance the size of

our logo and work with colors to really stand out and announce our presence. We also wanted the new designs to work with each other and have common elements so they worked when positioned next to each other. Finally, we wanted each can to tell a unique story about the brewery or reflect some aspect of who we are. Each scene depicted on the new designs tells you something about the beer inside whether it is how the name came about, why we made the beer or the beer’s personality.

Willey: You see before you drink and you decide before you buy, and we feel these new designs blend the vintage feel VBC is known for while also bringing renewed attention to beers that are now recognizable by name or reputation throughout much of Virginia – but not yet by all of Virginia.

It was important to include an aesthetic that felt true to the Virginia Beer Co. brand. Simultaneously, we were looking for a big wave forward to push the brand further while staying true to the spirit of Virginia Beer Co. That’s a tightrope walk that wasn’t lost on the team, and we feel that better use of the entire can, sharper colors, and direct descriptors got us over the finish line.

I’ve noticed in new designs, breweries either prefer the brand logo to pop most or the style name of the beer (ie IPA).

Which was the case for you?

Hardy: That is a huge decision, you hit that one right on the head. We spent a lot of time on this. So, if I had to pick, I’d say the brand logo. It certainly is the first thing you see. That being said, I think the style and the actual name of the beer are more prominent on this new design. By cutting down on the doodles from the last can, we ended up with more space for both.

Balancing Old World roots with continued innovation, our vintners and brewers prize expressive grapes, local hops and farm-to-glass freshness. Every Orange County vineyard and brewery has a triumphant story to tell.

Experience the flavors we savor.

Willey: In the grand scheme of things, both play a factor — so our challenge was to tackle all of those components at the same time.

The goal is to ensure we are still present for the consumer who already knows us, while concurrently positioning the brand for the consumer that’s new or hasn’t had a Free Verse in far too long.

We love the 360° nature of these new cans, and the movement and straightforward nature of the design accomplishes both of these tasks. We’re staying true to our foundation but utilizing splashes of color and pinpoint descriptions to check all the boxes we feel are most important to notice when walking the beer aisle.

While supplies last

Cans are generally displayed/merchandised on retail shelves (Total Wine), beer coolers (7-11), and in glass door refrigerators behind a bar (80/20 Burger Bar). Do you feel your new design will pop better in these crowded spaces and stand out from the competition?

Hardy: With all the new beers that have come onto the market since 2014, when we launched the original cans, as well as seltzers and RTDs, a central concern was making sure these cans popped off the shelf. So, I certainly hope that these will help you find Smartmouth at your favorite beer cooler and I hope that it draws new customers in to give us a try. There is so much visual noise out there we just felt we had to be bolder.

Willey: The beer shelf at any retailer is noisy, to say the least.

There’s a lot of good beer out there! One of the things we love most about The Virginia Beer Company’s refresh is that it jumps in a vibrant way by being more still and intentional. These can designs are focused, razor sharp, and to the point — we hope cutting through the noise to help make the beer buying experience an easy one.

A Fine Man, A Fine Brewer, A Painful Loss

by Jefferson Evans and Chuck Triplett

E

arly May found the Northern Virginia brewing community suffering a very unexpected and hard to process loss when Dean Lake died. Dean was a true elder statesman among Virginia brewers, talented at his craft, known for his gregarious nature and sharp wit, a good friend to many.

Bill Madden, another veteran of the NoVa brewing community, noted,“Dean will always be an alumnus of the prestigious brewing team of Old Dominion Brewing Company, known for the many bright minds and characters that passed through that well-worked 25-bbl JVNW brewhouse based in Ashburn,Virginia.”

Madden went on to say,“I first met Dean at the inaugural meeting of the Rubber Boots Society on May 19, 1996, which was held at Old Dominion. Dean became the Editor, wrote the quarterly newsletter, which was a thankless job. I got to know him over the years and watched as he moved between Old Dominion, Sweetwater, Thoroughbreds, Dog Money, and Black Hoof. Dean was well-liked by all in the industry and became a brewer’s brewer, respected by his peers and always ready for a good discussion on his view of proper brew house procedure. I will miss his gregarious disposition, always - 16 -

ready for a good laugh. I will miss being able to share in brewers’ conversations that, unless you are in the industry, sound like a foreign language. He truly will be sorely missed by many. Rest easy, my friend.”

Favio Garcia — cofounder of Lost Rhino Brewing Company, brewer at Beltway Brewing Company, and now co-owner of Dynasty Brewing Company in Ashburn and Leesburg — is another alumnus of the Old Dominion brewing team and remembers Dean over the years.“I can’t remember exactly when I first met Dean. It must have been when I was a young brewer sent out to the Old Dominion Brewery to pick up yeast and clean some kegs or some other task.

Maybe, we hung out together late at night after one of the now infamous Old Dominion beer festivals. I was fortunate to eventually get a job at Old Dominion and for a short time we were co-workers before he left to start a brewery in Leesburg. At that time, I really didn’t appreciate Dean’s sense of humor and I was left saying many times “yeah, okay” as I tried to catch up to his quick wit and figure things out. But, eventually, I did figure it out and I followed his path.

Dean left a brewery where he loved to brew lagers and helped

start a brewery with a friend. As would I. He brewed at Sweet Water Tavern for a while and I landed at Sweetwater just as he was leaving to go back to Leesburg. Once again, I was just a few years behind him, but one thing is for sure, when I needed a friend, he was there.

When Matthew Hagerman and I were trying to start a brewery of our own, Dean invited us to brew a batch of pilsner at his brewery, which we served at the NoVa Brew Fest to show that we were serious.We could not have done that without Dean.When my time ended at that brewery, Dean invited me over for a beer. Not to listen but to poke fun at me and make me laugh. Because of our shared experiences, our sense of humor was more aligned at that point. I appreciated that beer that Dean offered and what came with it — support and friendship. Not too long ago, we were sitting at my location in Leesburg and Dean just kinda pronounced:“Favio and I are friends, but we never see each other.” Once again, he was right and made me laugh. Too busy running our breweries and busy with our families. I was looking forward spending more time Dean.”

On May 5, the winners of the 2022 World Beer Cup were announced. Among the results were those for German-Style Doppelbock and receiving the Bronze Medal was Leesburg’s Black Hoof Brewing Company for the Dominator Doppelbock, brewed

by Dean Lake. Dean, an appreciator of German lagers, had found a home at a brewery focused on German lagers. A collaboration that should have lasted longer, but it is the lost time with friends and loved ones that truly stings.We were all looking forward to more time with Dean.

Brew for Ukraine

By Jeff Maisey

The bottle label for Putin Hulio is symbolically impressive.

- 18 -

JUNE 2022

raft breweries around the world have risen to the call to collaborate on a version of a Ukrainian beer to raise funds and awareness, and local beer makers joined the “special effort.”

Putin Huilo (translated as Putin Dick) is a strong beer (8% ABV) and is bottled in an equally, visually powerful label designed by graphic artist Andriy Yermolenko.

The label on the bottle provides this description: “Putin Hulio has become a worldwide nickname for the President of Russia. Unlike Hitler, and other world leaders, whose imperial ambitions lead to the deaths of innocent people, Hulio is not a fanatic — he’s a Russian billionaire, not a tzar. In early 2014, Russia annexed Crimea, and several other parts of Ukraine. This action violated world orders established after WWII, and set off the expansion of Russian Terrorism throughout Europe.”

Scott Bateman, owner of COVA Brewing Company and this year’s president of the Coastal Virginia Brewery Alliance, rallied the brew troops to get behind the cause related to humanitarian efforts in support of the Ukrainian people.

“Ulyana Wingard, owner of the Garage Brewery in Chesapeake, had been our main source of information and inspiration,” said Bateman.

Bold Mariner Brewing Company’s Kerrie Stacks with Julien Perrod, head brewer at La Parisienne, in France.

“When the call for assistance came to our attention, the CVBA member brewers didn’t hesitate and jumped into action. We quickly pulled our members together and formed several collaboration hubs that would get the beer brewed and flowing as quickly as possible. We were made aware by Ulyana a few weeks ago that close to 500 breweries across the world had signed up to collaborate and contribute funds to the #Ukranian cause. Another way for our collective brewing community to make a statement of solidarity and support for the citizens of Ukraine. Ulyana’s story was very inspiring for us all and we

appreciated her commitment to the cause.”

The recipe for Putin Hulio was developed by Pravda Brewery, which is located in Ulyana Wingard’s hometown on Lviv, Ukraine.

When the Russian invasion began, Pravda stopped making beer so as to use its bottles for Molotov cocktails so that ordinary citizens could resist Moscow’s brutal forces.

Breweries around the world are sharing recipes from our Ukraine craft brewing community and developing unique recipes and labels to #makebeernotwar. continued VIRGINIACRAFTBEER.COM

Beale’s label doesn’t mince words.

R O T A T C I D R YOU TCH IS BI

In Norfolk, COVA Brewing hosted brewers from Deadline, Rip Rap, Maker’s, Smartmouth and Benchtop to make the Putin beer based on Pravda’s recipe. So, too, did The Vanguard collaborating with Big Ugly, Tradition, Oozlefinch, MoMac, and Nansemond Brewing Station.

In Virginia Beach, Vibrant Shore hosted Reaver Beach, Young Veterans, and Pleasure House on a Belgian Tripel.

All pints sold will have a $2 donation to fund the following set up by and explained by Pravda Brewery: “Humanitarian relief: Together with Lviv City Council, we help women and children with disabilities in need to temporarily leave Ukraine to EU and receive first social aid. We work with Poland, Czech Republic, Portugal, Italy, Germany and Baltic states. We transfer women and children who don’t have enough money, orphans, children with mobility and palliative issues.

“Food mission: We feed refugees and local civil defense forces. In partnership with World Central Kitchen, we make and distribute 30,000 free meals per day.”

The Garage Brewery and Wasserhund Brewing Company joined forces for the beer.

Said Christine Holly of Wasserhund: “We brewed a Belgian Triple named Putin Huylo (8.1% ABV) as a strong ale, golden - 20 -

in color, with hints of cracked pepper and coriander. Pravda Brewing in Lviv, Ukraine has ceased the production of beer to produce Molotov cocktails to aid in the fight against Russia.

Therefore, they have released their award-winning beer recipes in what is being called an “International Collaboration” to support the people of Ukraine. For this Tripel, we collaborated with The Garage Brewing whose owner is a Ukrainian immigrant.

All profits of draft ales will go directly to the Red Cross of the Ukraine.”

In Northern Virginia, eight breweries joined together at Ornery Beer Company in Manassas to brew Putin Huylo. The collaborating partners set a goal of raising $20,000 to be donated between World Food Kitchen Ukraine, Global Giving Ukraine Crisis Relief Fund, and Pravda Brewery’s efforts in Lviv. The participating breweries were Winchester Brew Works, Tucked Away Brewing Co., Quattro Goombas Winery & Brewery, Caboose Brewing Co., Lake Anne Brew House, Fair Winds Brewing Company, and Ornery Beer Company.

The Bold Mariner Brewing Company collaborated with a French brewery to produce Norfolk-Paris-Kyiv India Pale Ale. Bold Mariner’s Kerrie Stacks flew to Paris as a Beer Ambassador, and participated in a collaboration with Julien

brew for ukraine Perrod, head brewer at La Parisienne. Both the French and American brewed versions will raise money for UNICEF to benefit efforts in Ukraine.

“I spent three weeks in France during March and April,” said Kerrie Stacks. “I was in Paris for Planete Biere and also met with restaurants and distributors. Participation in the festival and the collaboration brew was organized by the Brewers Association’s export development program. Being fluent in French was a big plus as it allowed me to really make connections with accounts and French craft beer enthusiasts.”

Norfolk-Paris-Kyiv IPA was brewed with Mosaic and Citra hops and will come in at 5.5% ABV. The beer will be available on draft and cans wrapped with a Ukraine yellow and blue label.

O’Connor Brewing, in collaboration with Pravda, is doing a heavy beer as bold in strength as in name — F*%K PUTIN Dry Hopped Strong Golden Ale. New Realm Brewing Company brewed “Haze of Hope,” with proceeds going to support CARE USA. The non-profit is aiming to reach 4 million people with immediate emergency assistance, such as food, water, hygiene kits, psychological support, and cash assistance to aid families in Ukraine who are fleeing violence, and is prioritizing women and girls, families, and the elderly.

In addition to the Alliance brew, Big Ugly Brewing made Mercy Killer Barrel Aged Stout, which included the Ukraine flag on the label.

Legend Brewing Company of Richmond brewed Red Eyes, an amber ale, for Ukrainian relief efforts. The can label featured the Ukraine colors and a blue-faced, red-eyed person in a futuristic looking hazmat suit.

Alewerks Brewing Company released Teamwerks, a Ukrainian-style Golden Ale with $1 of every 4-pack or glass sold going to Mercy Chefs.

Virginia Beer Company, while in London on a trade mission, teamed up with craft beer bar The Rake for a massive tap takeover, and all proceeds from sales of VBC beer being donated to the UK’s Disasters Emergency Committee Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal.

Beale’s, based in Bedford, Virginia released Your Dictator is Bitch (Ukrainian Golden Ale 7.7% ABV) on May 28. Head brewer James Frazer shared this description: “Brewed in solidarity with the people of Ukraine, whose courage and resistance is an inspiration to us all. 100% of sales proceeds from this beer will go to Pravda Brewing in Lviv to aid their relief work.”

The Beale’s label paints Putin as a clown.

k c a b is n o s a e s r Lawnmower bee

By Jeff Maisey

Back in 2014, some in the craft beer world had latched onto the label lawnmower beer to describe what were light lagers serving as a way to quench your thirst during the dog days of summer after cutting the grass or doing general yard work.

We in Virginia can certainly relate given our high humidity environment come late May and all the way to mid-September.

- 22 -

JUNE 2022

Lawnmower beers were sometimes branded as “your grandfather’s beer” as a reference to the likes of PBR, Miller High Life, Budweiser, Coors, and Busch — ironically the very beer style craft beer set out to differentiate itself from.

After all the boundary-pushing experimental beers, heavily-hopped IPAs, bourbon barrel this and that, puckerup sours and flavors of the week, turns out nothing beats an ice cold lager or pilsner on a 90-degree afternoon when you’re covered in sweat, bug bites, and dust. ’Tis the season.

In just the last five years, lagers and pilsners have gained newfound respectability in the craft community and the “funny, ha-ha” lawnmower beer tag has all but dropped off.

Until now…

St. George Brewing Company, in Hampton, has long favored traditional beer styles and as a kitchy way to celebrate the beers of summer they’ve put together their inaugural Lawnmower Beer Festival scheduled for June 18 from noon to 5 PM. “We are fans of retro around here,” said Heather Gauthier, St. George’s brand manager. “We loved the idea of hosting a festival outside in the warm weather that represents the fun in enjoying a cold beer on a hot day — especially after mowing the lawn.”

At press time, St. George has 13 craft breweries participating: Vibrant Shore, Dragon Run, Elation, Makers, Wasserhund, NOST, Rip Rap Brewing, 1700, 1865, The Garage Brewery, Gloucester, Three Notched, and themselves.

For the event, St. George is brewing “Mower’s Motivation,” a light bodied, clean Munich-style lager with pleasant, malty base notes and a crisp finish.

Beyond the Lawnmower Beer Festival, all local breweries have beers that fit the category of being light bodied, crisp, and with a low ABV. Some are long running flagships and others are newly invented.

As a newbie, Starr Hill Brewery is introducing Sun Burn as a fresh seasonal. Sun Burn (4.5% ABV) is an ale brewed with lemon peel and orange puree.

In rural areas of Virginia, after an afternoon cutting the grass onboard a John Deere riding lawnmower followed by cleaning the horse stables, reach for a crowler of Stable Craft Brewing & Cidery’s new Farmhouse Ale, a sensational saison brewed with lemongrass, lemon peel and rose hips.

Maker’s Craft Brewery will release Norfolk Naddy Lager, which is described as a “clean, crisp lager that tastes like your granddaddy’s beer” and it “pairs well with yard work.” Maker’s will also release Fuhged Daboudit (Forget About it), an Italian-style pilsner.

Speaking of Italian, Garden Grove Brewing & Urban Winery in Richmond has unveiled an Italian pilsner called Second Circle. Owner Chris Sarnoski described it this way: “Crisp and clean and full of respite, the 2nd Circle Italian Pilsner quenches the Beast’s thirst and lust for a pilsner with salacious hoppiness.”

Garden Grove’s other lawnmower beer is dubbed The Preferred Beer of Richmond, an American lager featuring a blend of domestic corn and German pilsner malts for that classic blue collar man lager taste.

Also, from RVA, it is hard to beat Hardywood Park’s Richmond Lager.

Same for Legend Brewing Company’s classic Citra Lager, a delicious tropically fragrant 4.5% ABV lager that can be coupled with Legend’s zesty, gingerforward Z Dam lager. Z Dam is especially a brilliant choice for that sunset cookout after a day toiling away in the garden.

Hawksbill Brewing Company has a truly unique summertime brew dubbed 7 Days a Wheat, which is essentially a watermelon wheat ale. Betcha never had one of these, eh? No seeds, we’re told.

Billsburg Brewery will highlight its Radler (Lemonade pilsner), Juan’s Nightstand (Cerveza), Fiesta en Billsburg (Vienna Cerveza), Cribbage in the Square (Pilsner), and will have a few different seltzers rotating through the summer months.

Over at Wasserhund Brewing Company, Pop Your Top Off is a fine Helles lager coming in at 5% ABV. It is described as “bright, crisp, and crushable, this Munich Helles is the perfect beach day brew.”

Having produced Green Can in its early days and the award-winning Proper Lager as of late, O’Connor Brewing Company knows this style well. Coming soon from OBC is Slow Pour Pils, which benefits the Virginia Zoo’s Conservation Fund, Surf Veza Mexican Lager, a fan favorite, but now in 6-pack 12-oz cans, and Juicy Ride Tropical Wheat Ale, a warm weather crusher at 4.5% with tropical notes of Passion Fruit, Cara Cara Orange and Guava.

Anyone remember Miller Lite’s slogan, “Tastes great, less filling”? Elation Brewing introduces Larchmont Lite, brewed with 100% Chesapeake Pilsner malt from Riverbend Malt House. The malt is grown in the Northern Neck and malted in Asheville, NC. Light body, dry finish and refreshing, and at 4% ABV, this brew is an all day crusher.

Vibrant Shore Brewing Company is releasing Rising Bun, a brew Rhett calls “an incredibly clean, crushable, and crisp light lager that is an homage to Japanese and new world light lagers.” He continues, “Envision dense white foam on top of a bright light blonde body, created with malted barley, flaked rice and Sorachi Ace hops. Its dryness evaporates off the tongue in a clean finish. 5.4% ABV, 19 IBU. There is a Samurai somewhere.”

Out in Roanoke, Big Lick Brewing Company is readying a new lawnmower beer owner Bryan Summerson is calling Lawnz & Lagerz. This new offering will join Smith Mountain Lager and Heritage Pre-Prohibition Lager in Big Lick’s summertime starting lineup of home rum beers.

Reaver Beach plans on Raise Hell, Praise Dale (4/2% ABV) as an American Light Lager for “fans of things like sports-ball, fishing, or watching automobiles go in near endless circles.” At 4.20% ABV, this clean, crisp badboy might inspire you to raise some hell, or at least have a few pints.

Beale’s will pull-start Lil’ Mower on June 25 to celebrate the Bedford brewery’s 5th anniversary. Lil’ Mower is just 3.8% ABV and brewed with Jasmine rice and pilsner malts. Look out Mic Ultra.

Nansemond Brewing Station will unveil Orange Route Kolsch (blood orange Kolsch, 5.4% ABV) named aptly after the main bus route that runs through Suffolk, and is described by their brew team as a “beer designed to be an easy drinking, smooth rider that will carry you through a long week of work while pushing or riding that mower creating your own baseball field lines in the yard.”

Alewerks Brewing Company will hammer-out a newborn brew called Nailed It, a premium lager that will benefit a Habitat for Humanity program called the House that Small Business Built.

Where The Garage Brewery will keep the taps of Light Bulb flowing and Thin Brew Line will do a saison called Tee Off for Cancer, Big Ugly Brewing continues to please with Peake Lager and Bavarian Mouth Werks, The Vanguard’s Caiseal brand of House Beer thrills, and Tradition Brewing’s Tradice Czech-style Pilsner is the real deal.

Last but certainly not least in the Lawnmower beer category are Smartmouth’s Safety Dance Pilsner (with new package design) and New Realm Brewing Company’s Euphonia Pilsner. Both are former Bestin-Show Virginia Craft Beer Cup winners.

And, of course, don’t forget Port City Brewing Company’s Downright Pilsner, a silver medalist in this’s year’s World Beer Cup.

In addition to our tips for must-try lawnmower beers, we asked some of our Facebook friends for their favorites.

Courtenay Motley Liquid Escape (lemongrass session ale) from The Virginia Beer Company! It’s bright and lemony with a touch of salt. Perfect for every summer activity Steven Lucas Hands down Beale’s Gold. It’s clean, crisp, and delicious.

NEW

Ashley Skinner Lightbulb from The Garage Brewery. It’s light, crisp, and refreshing.

HOT TUBS

Randy Mircle Norfolk Naddy from Maker’s Craft Brewery. It’s extremely crushable and perfect on a hot summer day.

Destination Farm Brewery • Farm Winery

Shan Tucker Good ol’ Legend Brewing Company Lager. It’s the perfect crisp shower beer after a morning of gardening.

Clay Hysell Pylon Pilsner from Patch Brewing Co. – A clean, crisp German pils that is 4.9% and perfectly sessionable – like Lays Potato Chips, it hard to have just one.

is

Devon Callan Light, crisp, and easy drinking Beach Drive from Port City Brewing is my go-to.

Michael Kline Beale’s Gold – It is such a light and easy drinking beer. Very crushable after some yard work!

Melanie Kennedy Decipher Brewing’s Barley Late Kolsch! Super crisp and clean, the perfect beer for a hot summer day after yard work or a warm sunny day at the beach! I can confirm that pairs great with Old Bay steamed crabs.

John Stehura Jr. Beale’s Peach Tea Blonde – While most fruit beers either are too robust with flavor incredibly dull, Beale’s Peach Tea Blonde is just right! I remember having my first pack delivered my house mid-pandemic and it became love at first sip (then later became a case order). The sweet, sugary deliciousness that’s peach tea mixed with the light crispness of a blonde just hits the spot on a hot summer day.

it

or to

Austin John Dreamsicle Cream Ale by Apocalypse AleWorks & Beer Garden – Because after mowing the lawn, what’s better than hearing the ice cream man?

Mark Brennan Arm Candy Light Lager or Mas Fina MexicanLager. Arm Candy Light Lager the best damn light lager around. Nothing but exceptional beer, Mas Fina will not disappoint anyone craving a Mexican Lager.

JJ Henry Orizaba Mexican Lager from MoMac Brewing Company – It’s very balanced flavor in the original, carries the flavor through ice cold, and gets more complex as it warms up. The tequila cask aged has excellent flavor and finishes nicely with lime on the back end. Overall, both are great for craft beer lovers and great as an entry beer for people new to craft brews.

Virginia Beer Company

Virginia Beer Company releases Friends Of Dorothy Pride IPA every year to celebrate beers for all and cheers with all. This year’s release will be their most scaled up ever, so they are debuting the first 2022 batch in May to kick off Pride celebrations even earlier. This tropical, juicy, and fruit-forward IPA will support Equality Virginia, and it will be featured at Hop Culture x New Belgium’s Queer Beer Fest in DC this June. This release (the largest-ever batch of Pride IPA) blends fruity Citra and prominent tropical notes provided by El Dorado hops.

Beale’s

A Pride Drag Show begins at 9 pm with Javon Love and her queens. Tickets are $15 and will be for sale via Eventbrite. All tickets include one Pride Mojito Seltzer.

Smartmouth Brewing Company

Hopes and Dreams Double IPA, which they release every year and tie it in with an event for HR Pride, is in the works again for this June. “Smartmouth really tries to support the LGBTQ community in our own small way and this beer is one way we try and do that.”

O’Connor Brewing Company

Community-minded O’Connor Brewing Company is launching 16-oz cans of its Moira Rose Fruited Kettle Sour for Pride Month. “We are also holding an event on Saturday, June 11 (6-10 PM) to benefit the LGBTQ Life Center, “A Thousand Nights of Moira Roses,” which should be a great time,” said Kevin O’Connor. The Norfolk brewery has been featuring drag shows on its stage. Check out their Facebook page for updates.
