The Eavesdrop Brewery in Yorkshire has undergone a very colorful facelift, one that according to general manager Sam Madden is giving the brewery a more eye-catching identity.
Over the last year, the owners of the brewery have brought in an artist to paint this mural across the building which as well as the brewery includes local businesses such as the Cairo Cafe, Eugene's Sausage and Fries, and the Renegade Classics Motorcycle Shop.
The mural, painted by artist Nick Zimbra, shows flora and fauna against a colorful background such as the rabbit running on the Renegade Classic shop front or the flowers on the front of the Cairo Cafe. Zimbra, who has worked on the mural over the course of three to four months, has done similar projects in Richmond where he is currently working on a mural for the Capital One building.
Madden praised the mural to Potomac Local News, saying that it's not something you would normally see in many places in Prince William County.
"Personally, I grew up in Prince William County. I'm like, man, there's no public art in. Yeah, it's so boring. So, like, stiff, but it was cool to see it," says Madden.
Madden also touts the uniqueness of the stores located next to the brewery, which includes The Drop Bottle Shop, which stocks hard-to-find ales.
"So that's stuff that you can't find in your Harris Teeter, Safeway, the other places, the small batches that they make," said Madden.
Many of the stores and restaurants in the brewery managed to survive through the pandemic even as they had to limit the number of customers by half. Many of the restaurants were able to survive through food delivery apps like Doordash as well as curbside service, said Madden.
Eavesdrop Brewery opened in 2017 and offers not just homebrewed beer but also local offerings of cheeses, meats, and honey that are produced at farms west of Manassas, located between Marshall and Front Royal.
Eavesdrop Brewery is located off of Route 28 at 7223 Centerville Road in Yorkshire.
