About
Popularized in myth for slaying a fire-breathing dragon, St. George was a 3rd century Roman soldier who stood up for good over evil and was put to death.

The St. George Brewing Company is located in Hampton, VA. It has been in operation since 1998, making us one of the oldest microbreweries in the Hampton Roads area. Our brews are geared toward traditional English and German style ales though occasionally we branch out. We have a tap room that offers 9-12 taps of our rotating beers during our business hours.

The various legends surrounding his death inspired the crusading kings of 12th century England. Today, St George is known as the patron saint of chivalry as well as the patron saint of England.

We have tapped that same inspiration to create award winning ales and lagers that proudly bear the cross of St George.

Bottle from a dragon pack from Whole Foods in Charlottesville. Orange-brown pour with a minimal head. Piney and earthy hop aroma. Vegetal/grassy hop taste with a nutty malt background. Like most of their beers, not spectacular but very drinkable.

Updating my rating as I’ve had this several times since the original rating and its now a damn good beer.
