Associated Venue: St. George Brewing Company
Established in 1998
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.

Virginia Beer Festival. Clear amber color with a small white head. Aroma is that of hops, with a hint of flowers. Grapefruits and other citrus dominate, and it is good.

The aroma was not overly strong, but definitely black cherry. It poured dark with a small cream head and good lacing. The taste was definitely black cherry with a smoky finish and well balanced hops. I’d say this is a good porter, if you like that style, better than Guiness.

This beer was purchased as part of the St. George "Dragon pack", six different varieties available from the brewer. The nose was a delicious honey and nuts, brazil nut and peanut. It is copper colored with a small white head, with good clarity. The taste fell flat. There were no discernible flavors, with just a very slight hint of hops at the finish. I hope the brewery will rework this beer, because it has potential. I wasn’t terribly impressed.
