Campground brewery plans to reopen after Stafford zoning fight

STAFFORD -- The owner of a one-of-a-kind brewery hopes Stafford County authorities will let him reopen soon. 

Wild Run Brewing Company, a microbrewery at Aquia Pines Camp Resort off Route 1 in North Stafford has been closed for zoning infractions since March 23, 2017.

Owner Everett Lovell opened the brewery with the idea that it would be an amenity at his Aquia Pines Camp Resort, a place with campsites for RVs, or cabins for those who want four walls. Unlike other brew houses now dotting the landscape, Lovell’s was designed to a resort amenity, much like a swimming pool or put-put golf course.

On January 25th, we invite you to experience the magic of Galette des Rois, a 700-year-old tradition celebrated across France throughout the entire month of January (and even beyond!).

The lucky person who finds the fève (a porcelain charm hidden in one of the slices) becomes the King or Queen for the Day, and don’t worry—there will be plenty of royalty to go around! ??

But that’s not all! In France, Les Voeux (New Year’s wishes) continue throughout January, often accompanied by Champagne and good cheer. We’re bringing that festive spirit to you, with a lively evening packed with French food, wine, and music.
