About Bayheads Brewing Company
Bayheads Brewing Company is a brewery and taproom in historic downtown Chesapeake City. Three lifelong friends founded it in 2016 in their hometown. The name comes from growing up boating and drinking good beer at the head of the Chesapeake Bay.
The taproom has a full bar. Beer brewed on site sits beside bourbon, wine, cider and spirits like vodka, tequila and rum. There is also a crush bar, and you can fill a growler to take home.
Canal Town India Pale Ale is the flagship, brewed with Centennial and Citra hops. The line-up also includes Baybilly American Pilsner, River Rat Hazy IPA, Surf Fisher Stout and Buzzweizen, a hefeweizen made with local honey. The list rotates, so what is on tap changes.
Food comes from the Chesapeake Inn Restaurant and Marina. You order with a QR code, and the food is brought to your seat.
