Brewery Profile

Strangeways Brewing RVA-Scott's Addition

Part of Richmond’s craft brewery landscape, the RVA-Scott’s Addition tasting room gives visitors a wide-format version of Strangeways Brewing rather than a small, single-style taproom. Walk in expecting indoor seating, a long bar, and access to an outdoor biergarten designed for lingering, with event tents, fans, and lighting supporting use beyond a quick pint. The bar itself is a notable feature: Strangeways identifies it as Virginia’s largest at 87 feet. The setting is built for groups as much as individual tasters, with enough range behind the bar that a mixed party does not have to agree on one category of drink.

Travelers exploring beer in Richmond often look for variety: hop-forward ales, lighter lagers, darker beers, tart or mixed-culture styles, and taprooms that can serve both beer-focused visitors and casual companions. This stop fits that pattern through a broad portfolio of more than 36 offerings across IPAs, lagers, Belgian-style beers, stouts, porters, sours, wild ales, and non-alcoholic options. The drink list also extends beyond beer to cider, mead, spiked seltzers, and wine. That breadth makes the tasting room useful for visitors who want to compare styles in one place, or for anyone traveling with people who may not all be seeking the same kind of pour.

For practical planning, the taproom is the place to confirm the day’s pours and any weekly promotions, since the full portfolio and the current board may not be identical. To-go sales are part of the visit, with canned beer, crowlers, and growlers available. Food is offered through a curated menu that includes items such as pretzels and charcuterie, so visitors can pair snacks with a tasting rather than relying only on drinks. The brewery also hosts live music and other events, and private event spaces are available, which means the atmosphere can change depending on the calendar. If a quieter visit matters, checking the schedule before going is a sensible step.
