Brewery Spotlight: Basic City Beer Co.

Basic City Beer Co. is in the brewery spotlight this month, and they’re serving lots of fresh craft beer as well as lots of activities to keep you (and your kids) busy. Read on to learn about live music, fun stuff like trivia, and the best way to rock the middle of the week.

Do you offer tours? No, not at this time.

What’s new or what’s coming up? Lots of live music and events outside this spring and summer! Plus, we have seasonal cocktails in The Showroom every weekend.

What are your go-to brews and what makes them unique? Anything at Basic City! Derek, our brewmaster, is a beast! However, Bask DIPA is probably consistently one of our most popular brews.

What is unique/quirky about the brewery that most people don’t know? We have a speakeasy-style cocktail lounge on the weekends: The Showroom!

Do you distribute locally or have any local collaborations? Basic City distributes locally to grocery stores, gas stations, and restaurants. We’ve recently released a special collab brew with Massanutten Resort.

Do you allow dogs? Yes, absolutely! We allow leashed dogs both inside and outside.

Are you kid-friendly? Yes!

Do you offer food on-site? Yes, we have Lost Town Billy Pie here in the taproom featuring their amazing brick oven-fired pizza. On the weekends, we have other appetizers and sandwiches available at the Showroom.

What events do you offer? Every Tuesday is Trivia Tuesday! And on Wednesdays, we have been celebrating Half Way to the Weekend with Half Off Wednesdays, where select brews are half price. We also have live music often on the weekends. Follow us on Facebook for our full calendar of events.
