Nothing says dog days of summer like the month of August in Waynesboro!  You can find fresh, local produce at our Farmer's Market or enjoy dinner al fresco at one of our many venues offering live music and dining outside.  With 24 wineries, 10 breweries & 2 cideries in close proximity, you're sure to find something to cool you down on those hot summer nights!  August is Virginia Craft Beer Month and the perfect time to drink in the Valley with a tour of the Shenandoah Valley Beerwerks Trail.

When you shop here, you are a positive part of the local economy!  Check out all the season has to offer. 
 
Virginia Craft Beer Month
August is Virginia Craft Beer Month!  To celebrate, check out one of our local breweries, each unique in its own way:

Basic City Beer Co. - As if the great beer weren't enough, you can find live music, food trucks, yoga, hammocks and a barcade at this funky industrial brewery!

Seven Arrows Brewing - Come for the beer, stay for the delicious, made-from-scratch, farm-inspired food from Nobos. Take a seat on the deck and unwind!

Stable Craft Brewing - Horses, beach volleyball, sunset s'mores, hops yard, agri-pub farm-fresh food--and of course, great beer!

Since you have a whole month to celebrate, why not explore the Shenandoah Beerwerks Trail?
