A little about us and what you will find when you visit Pro Re Nata!

The Latin translation of Pro Re Nata means for a thing born. Our beers, born here in central Virginia near Charlottesville, are made with ingredients cultivated by people we know, created by a brewer who has been practicing his craft for more than fifteen years.

Since serving our first brew in 2015, we have grown into a multi-plex Collective of taprooms and outdoor areas:

The Original Brewery Taproom and Mountain View Patio
The larger Main Taproom and Stage
A Farmacy Garden Event Space and Outdoor Stage
An expansive Beer Garden with Mountain Views and Firepits

We look forward to seeing you soon!
