Eavesdrop Brewery has been issued a new license from the Virginia ABC to operate as a brewpub.
- They may now serve wine, hard seltzer and cider in addition to craft beers.
Prior to this licensing change, Eavesdrop was only able to offer its patrons craft beers with special occasions where they could serve wine, cider, and seltzer under a banquet license.
- “As of this last weekend we served wine, sangria and we are working with a distributor to get cider in here. We also have a seltzer that we are planning on releasing on November 22. It is a raspberry seltzer, we are brewing that for the first time,” said Sam Madden, general manager of Eavesdrop Brewery.
- “People really like the IPAs that we have. Yorkshire IPA that’s the house beer we’ve had since we opened up. We do swap out a lot according to what our Mug Club members prefer and what our customers want,” Madden said.
They are also partnering with a second location of Eugene’s Sausage and Fries to bring their customers’ consistent food service.
- Eugene’s Sausage and Fries serves gourmet sausages made with specialty meats like elk and duck along with classic hot dogs, brats and sandwiches.
- “We officially signed a lease with Eugene’s Sausage and Fries, originally located in Haymarket, will be opening right across from Eavesdrop brewery,” Madden said.
- “They’re a separate business about 15 feet away. This will be a symbiotic relationship. Fingers crossed they will be open in a few months. They will have a full kitchen and the full menu that they offer at their first location. This is a big step for us because of the food trucks and a lot of breweries have inconsistent food because things fall through,” Madden said.
The brewery offers your standard beers to include IPAs, American ales, and stouts. There’s also red ales, and a Wiki Carn Wit Beer on the menu.
- Eavesdrop is located on Route 28 near the Prince William County/Fairfax County line at 7223 Centreville Road.
- It’s partially hidden behind some larger buildings, so you’ll need to look for it if you’ve not been there before.
