Upscale brewery with great indoor seating and plenty of outdoor space. Impressive Taproom offering a wide selection of beers, including flights. I would recommend the flights since there are so many choices on tap. Lakers and pilsner were very good as well as the porter which is highly recommended.

As we wandered around Roanoke, VA, my wife stumbled upon a brewery with a name that just begs you to check it out—A Few Old Goats Brewing. Naturally, we had to go in! At first glance, the place looks like an old school building, but it’s actually a really cool combo of a brewery and apartment complex. Don’t let the exterior fool you—this spot is a gem. Inside, there’s a great selection of craft brews, and the outdoor seating area was a total delight. Laid-back vibes, great beer, and a memorable name. Highly recommend stopping by!
