Strangeways Brewing Adding New Location In Fredericksburg, VA

Gov. Terry McAuliffe pulled a temporary tap inside a Fredericksburg warehouse Thursday, filled a Strangeways Brewing glass with beer and took a sip.

“Ah, that’s good,” he exclaimed. “It’s good to be governor!” 

McAuliffe was at the former Burton’s Menswear warehouse at 350 Lans-downe Road to give Neil Burton, founder of Strangeways Brewing in Henrico County, $150,000 from the Virginia Department of Agriculture and Forestry Industries Fund toward opening Strangeways Brewing Fredericksburg.

Fredericksburg’s Economic Development Authority will match the grant in $50,000 installments over three years.
