Description
Born in a Charlottesville music hall in 1999, Starr Hill is an independent, regional craft brewery founded out of a passion for great beer and live music. In response to the growing demand, Starr Hill moved in the summer of 2005 from to a larger facility in the town of Crozet. It was here where Starr Hill became the first production craft brewery in Virginia, focused on bottling and packaging beer to ship to around Virginia and beyond. The brewery and Tap Room are still based there today, nestled in the rolling foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains.

Draft at Starr Hill Tysons Biergarten. Poured a very hazy, muted yellow color with a small white head. Aroma was super creamy, light tropical fruit, really nice pine finish in this one. Juicy, and drinkable.

Draft at Starr Hill Tysons Biergarten. Poured a tick, hazy orange color with a medium sized white head. Huge coconut and rum aroma. Has a very sunscreenesque aroma, smells like Summer, if that makes sense. Flavor is more subtle rum, but it's there. Not as much spicy heat that you often get with rum barrel. Big coconut finish.
