About Brewing Tree Beer Co.
Brewing Tree Beer Co. is a riverside brewery on Rockfish Valley Highway in Afton. Its website says Mark and Gina Thompson founded it in 2018 on five acres along the North Fork of the Rockfish River. The beer is brewed on site and poured only there.
The grounds are the draw. There is a beer garden with fire pits, a meadow with a river bar, and a sandbox for the kids. The river is open for wading too.
Food comes from Scratch Kitchen, a food truck on the property. The menu changes daily, and the site says items may sell out. The taproom pours five core beers plus a rotating cast of seasonals, ciders and seltzers.
Leashed dogs are welcome anywhere on the property, and kids are welcome too. There is live music in the beer garden. More people have reviewed Brewing Tree Beer Co. on Google than any other brewery, taproom or beer shop in Afton on this site.
