About The Damascus Brewery
The Damascus Brewery is a small brewery and tap room on Government Road in Damascus, Virginia. It was established in 2013 by founder Adam Woodson, who built it on his own. The equipment is manual from grind to mash, boil and transfer, so the beer has a homebrew feel.
The brewery makes more than 60 different beers and rotates them across 8 taps. Three are on all year: Beaver Rage IPA, Honey Mango Sour and a light ale. Beaver Rage is the flagship, a hoppy IPA that is not bitter, and restaurants in the Bristol and Abingdon area serve it.
The room is handmade too. The lighting, welding, woodwork and graphic art were all crafted by hand. The entrance, parking lot, restroom and seating are wheelchair accessible.
Private events can be booked by calling the brewery. Merchandise and its two best sellers can also be ordered online if you cannot make the drive.
