Ten miles further west than, and one month after the Northern Virginia Summer Brewfest, it's Magnolias at the Mill First Annual Beer Festival on Saturday, 19 July.
Magnolias is a 30 beer tap restaurant, built in a converted mill in the small farming town of Purcellville in western Loudoun County.
From the festival flier:
Some of our very favorite breweries will join us for a festive day of awesome beer, music, and barbecue.
A partial list includes the following breweries:... More to be added. (Attendees subject to change, but the guaranteed good time is not!) Tickets include a souvenir glass and five beer sample tickets plus Chef Mark's Barbecue Feast.
- Flying Dog
- Clipper City
- Stone
- Allagash
- Troegs
- Bell's
- Abita
- Lagunitas
- Victory
Clipper City Brewing Company will be there ... pouring Red Sky at Night Saison, Hang Ten Weizen Dopplebock, and Oxford Organic Raspberry Wheat.
It's a wonderful excuse for a bicycle excursion. The restaurant's patio sits only a few feet from the western terminus of the nearly 50-mile Washington and Old Dominion Railroad Regional Park, a biker/hiker trail which can be traversed from the Washington D.C. National Mall to Purcellville.
Festival hours: 11am-6pm. More information and tickets here.
