About old trade brewery

Old Trade Brewery is a family-owned farm brewery in Brandy Station, in Culpeper County. It opened in 2017 and makes beer and cider on a rural farm. The brewery says it is the first family-oriented farm brewery in the area.

The setting is the draw. Kids can play while you sit with a pint and watch the sun set over the Blue Ridge Mountains. There is a playground, and dogs have their own dog park.

Food comes from 1610 Bakehouse, which serves tavern fare such as pretzels with beer cheese, street tacos and burgers. Food trucks visit some days. Outside food is not allowed.

Live music plays here, and the large indoor space and patios host private events and weddings. All the ciders and wine are gluten free. The entrance and the parking lot are wheelchair accessible.
