Basic City Beer Co. Southside RVA · Richmond, Virginia

About

Housed in a converted industrial building in Richmond's Southside, this sprawling taproom retains its exposed brick and original machinery while pouring a range of styles from crushable sessions and lagers to DIPAs and imperials, the 6th Lord being a standout daily drinker. The space runs deep enough to include a back game room, and the kitchen turns out legitimately good pizzas. Dogs get treats, bikes get rack space, and the rotating specialty beers consistently punch above expectations.

Really cool joint. Great atmosphere, seems like it was an old industrial building back in the day. Beautiful exposed brick and machinery from back in this buildings hay day. Beer was wonderful, American IPA that is not overly hopped but still has some good bitterness to it. Parking seems like it might be tough if it gets busy but was perfectly fine when was there.
