Description
What does passion mean to you? For us, it’s an obsession. Ever since we brewed our very first batch, our mission has been pretty simple: create the perfect beer. We’ve spent years tweaking and refining our recipes – a little less malt, a few more hops, experiment with different yeast strains. In the early days, our commitment was so intense that our wives and neighbors thought we might be doing something illegal. We’re less suspicious about it now, but no less driven to make the best beer possible. MoMac brews a high quality beer that is as well-balanced as it is approachable. Our first taste testers were our friends and family, and they run the gamut from beer lovers like us to curious folks who are interested in something new. We won over all of them, and we know we’ll win you over too. MoMac is by the community, for the community. We started brewing in a Chesapeake garage, and are proud to give Western Hampton Roads a brewery of its own. It’s more than beer for us; we want to be a place where the whole neighborhood can have fun. That’s why we’ve got a huge bar, comfortable indoor and outdoor seating, a private party area, weekend shows featuring killer musicians, visits from the best food trucks in town, and – yes – even a place for the kids to play. Come visit us at MoMac for a cold beer and a great time. We can’t wait to share our passion with you.
