About
Our love of craft beer is huge, as is our love of Lake Anne and Reston, which ultimately lead us to this mission: To create a community-focused taproom, brewing small-batch, hand-crafted beer, and to serve it up lakeside on our amazing deck and patio overlooking beautiful Lake Anne.

Brews with views… what more could you ask for?

Our community-focused brewery will embrace the ‘Live-Work-Play’ philosophy that Robert E. Simon built this place to be, and we will strive to uphold his ideals in all that we do as a business. We built this business for all of you, for our community, and for the greater community of craft beer drinkers.

At the source: dark amber with off white head. Aroma is caramel malts, earthy hops. Taste is moderately bitter. Malty without being very sweet. Hard to say if on style because I do not drink enough alts.
