Description
We built Fair Winds Brewing Company to provide fresh, local, flavorful craft beers to our neighbors and friends in Fairfax County and throughout the Commonwealth and the District of Columbia. We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all; instead we believe that craft beer, like food, should complement the moment and add to the overall experience.
Our beers are born from inspiration, crafted with devotion and served with the excitement and anticipation one experiences when sharing their craft. We welcome you to fill your sails with Fair Winds.

4 oz pour on draft at Spacebar. Dark brownish black with light tan head. Aromas of roast, chocolate, caramel. Tastes of dark chocolate, licorice, roast, caramel. Medium body with a dry finish. Bit too licoricey in the taste for me. Body is on the lighter side for the style, don’t think I would have guessed this were an imperial stout if I had it blind.
