Its always a great day to enjoy a nice Virginia crafted beer, but Tuesdays in Williamsburg make it even easier on the wallet. After an arduous day at work, we decided to head to downtown Williamsburg to the Greenleafe Cafe. Located adjacent to the College of William and Mary campus, the downtown Greenleafe has been offering craft beer for as long as I can remember. On this evening, the Greenleafe was offering, the following Virginia beers at $1 a pint and $4 a pitcher:
O'Connor Brewing Irish Stout (Norfolk, VA)
Starr Hill Northern Lights IPA (Crozet, VA)
Starr Hill The Love Hefeweizen
St. George Summer Ale (Hampton, VA)
St. George English IPA
Tupper's Hop Pocket Ale (Brewed by St. George in Hampton, VA)
Legend Lager (Richmond, VA)
Legend Brown Ale
On this evening I enjoyed a Hop Pocket, The Love, and a Northern Lights. Though it carries the Tupper's label, Hop Pocket is actually brewed by St. George Brewing in Hampton. Its a kind of "tweener" beer, somewhere between an American Pale Ale and IPA with a birght American hop character. The Love is Starr Hill's interpretation of a German hefeweizen, and it deliver's big time banana and wheat flavors. Starr Hill's Northern Lights IPA is definitely brewed in the American IPA style, and feature's an abundance of citrusy hop flavor and aroma.
