Charlottesville is a “Top Vacation City” for Beer

Yes, it’s true. The Charlottesville area has a lot of great breweries. Now Main Street has noticed; naming Charlottesville one of the “top 10 vacation cities for beer lovers“.

Notice though – only one of the five breweries on the Brew Ridge Trail is actually in “Charlottesville.

South Street Brewery is in the City of Charlottesville.

Starr Hill Brewery is in Crozet (Albemarle County)

Blue Mountain, Devil’s Backbone and Wild Wolf are all in Nelson County.

One of the questions I ask new buyer clients contemplating relocating to Charlottesville is, “What does ‘Charlottesville’ mean to you?”. For some, it’s the City of Charlottesville. For some it’s the urban ring of Charlottesville, for others it’s “within 30 minutes of downtown Charlottesville …”


I found this fun photo tour of the Brew Ridge Trail –

I really liked this photo, but I wavered over whether this particular post was for “commercial use” so I opted to not reprint it, per Creative Commons. It’s a cool picture, nonetheless.
