Blue Mountain Brewery
No trip to Charlottesville is complete without a stop at Blue Mountain Brewery, and once you see the trellis-covered patio surrounded by hop vines curled around fences - all in the shadow of the magnificent Shenandoah Mountains - you might just while away your whole afternoon here. For a sunny day, try the refreshing Kolsch 151 (5.0% ABV) or the flagship brew, Full Nelson Pale Ale (5.9% ABV) a slightly bitter, floral brew made with ingredients from the brewery’s own hop farm. Free tours every weekend. (9519 Critzers Shop Rd, Afton, VA; 540-456-8020)
