Brewery news

Starr Hill Brewery is coming to Downtown Lynchburg, WSET reported on October 16.

The Downtown Lynchburg Association announced on Instagram that Starr Hill will take over the former Grassroots Local Market at 1300 Main Street.

Starr Hill on Main will be just one block from the Community Market and easy access to the Bluffwalk.

The brewery and taproom will lease nearly 4,000 total square feet, housing a 5-barrel brewing system.

Beers brewed on-site will feature local collaborations as well as unique brews only available in the Lynchburg location.

The taproom area will have an open-concept seating layout that will incorporate a brewhouse lounge area and traditional bar seating. Starr Hill will also propose an outdoor seating area that will create a vibrant urban atmosphere, extending the comfortable indoor space.

"We believe in the vision for Downtown Lynchburg and that Main Street is the right location for our pilot brewery and taproom. This community’s enthusiasm to work together to create a vibrant and dynamic city is fantastic," says Brewmaster Robbie O’Cain. "We are anxious to begin brewing in Downtown Lynchburg and will showcase exclusive beers for the Hill City as well as our expansive beer lineup from our other outposts."

They said to also expect a regular mix of local music and entertainment throughout the week.

"We are so pleased to welcome Starr Hill to Downtown Lynchburg," says Downtown Lynchburg Association Executive Director Ashley Kershner. "This brewery will be a new and exciting attraction for locals and visitors alike, helping to further solidify Downtown Lynchburg as a destination. Starr Hill has also shown themselves to be an excellent community partner in all of their brewery locations, and we look forward to the impact they will have on our city."

To celebrate the announcement, Starr Hill will host a free concert at The Glass House on Thursday, October 24 that will feature one of their favorite Virginia bands, Lord Nelson.

The brewery is expected to open in spring 2020.
