Description
We are a brewery, taproom, and beer garden in the Scott's Addition neighborhood of Richmond, Virginia.
Ardent Craft Ales began as a co-op in a Richmond garage, a space where we sought to create innovative beers and introduce others to historic brewing methods and beer styles. As a production brewery, our mission remains the same: to produce and celebrate exceptional and ambitious beers with the ever-growing craft beer community.

$2.99 bottle from Total Wine, West Richmond. Pours medium golden with a small off-white head. Tremendous grapefruit, orange, and pine aroma - quite strong, quite nice. Flavor is fruity pine, lightly floral. Juicy with orange and grapefruit, clementines, perhaps. Quite good. Actually, one of the best IPAs Iβve had in a long time.
