2. Bill Bevins, co-host
Bill’s top choice is Devils Backbone Brewing Company. Devils Backbone's 'Basecamp Brewpub & Meadows' is their pilot brewery nestled at the base of the Blue Ridge Mountains in Roseland. You’ll find their 'Outpost Tap Room & Kitchen' on a beautiful hillside in Lexington, Virginia just over the Blue Ridge Mountains from Basecamp. Bill likes ordering their popular Vienna Lager.

3. Stacy Sacra, creative services senior producer
Stacy says there are a lot of excellent breweries in the area, but hands down the best one is Final Gravity Brewing Co. on Lakeside Avenue near Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden. They have multi-award-winning brews and one of the widest selections and varieties Stacy has seen at one brewery. His favorite beer from Final Gravity is the “beautifully robust” Montpelier Train Station Porter. It’s so good that Stacy calls it “perfection in a glass.”
