Bear Chase Brewing Company
Bear Chase Brewing Company is located on a 35-acre estate in the Blue Ridge Mountains in Bluemont. It offers stunning views of the valley. On weekdays, the taproom and Brew Barn provide a relaxing atmosphere. During weekends, it becomes lively, attracting hikers, families, and dogs who enjoy the lawn and fire pits.
The brewery’s beverage program includes a variety of options, from stouts and light beers to local wines, ciders, and seasonal wine slushies. A recommended choice is the Kodiak Kölsch, which pairs well with comfort food from the Grill on the Hill or the Cubby Shack, including wood-fired pizzas and wagyu burgers.
Frequently Asked Questions

They specialize in casual, approachable comfort food like wood-fired pizzas, soft pretzels, and wagyu burgers, making it easy to graze while you hang out.
What options do you have for non-beer drinkers? Beyond their craft beer rotations, they maintain a broad menu featuring local wines, hard ciders, and craft seltzers. Their seasonal wine slushies are a massive hit with locals during the warmer summer months.
What are some recommended nearby activities for a full day trip? The brewery sits right along the Appalachian Trail, making it a natural stop for a rewarding drink after a hike.
