This type of brewery is not for me. We just happened to be nearly and stopped in. It is a little weird as it is located behind a bunch of rented cabins. But they looked nice and the brewery looked nice. After that, our experience deteriorated. For one thing, this is the only brewery i have ever been to where you can't sample a beer before getting it. So we both got the smallest pour options. neither were good. It is odd because if we could have found a beer we liked, we would have probably been there for two rounds of the larger pours. The woman working the bar was not very nice either when we asked about the samples.. kind of gave us a smartaleck response. If that is the business model, good for them. But there are plenty of other breweries in this area to visit. We wont be back to this one. read more

Fine Creek Brewery is a fantastic place to host an engagement party. For a reasonable price, I was amazed at the attentive service and the delicious food, not to mention the picturesque venue itself. We are gluten-free, which did not hinder the selection or the quality of the food. I find myself looking for a reason to host another party just to return. And I plan to return for lunch or dinner soon. read more

A place for locals or visitors to the area. Good drinks, tasty food. Don't plan on staying into the evening as they close fairly early. If you're planning your visit during the weekend days watch for parents letting kids run around. Watch for deer to and from. read more

This quaint little brewery in the middle of Powhatan sets on a beautiful creek in serene peacefulness. What a nice way to spend the afternoon on a pleasant day. They were out of a couple things, but we all ended up with something we enjoyed. read more

We had the pizza and sandwich. Pizza supposedly had chorizo on it but was sparse as well as over cheesed. Food quality has significantly decreased. When ordering my wife wasn't sure if she wanted dry wine or cider. She decided to have the cider and we paid for the whole meal. When I went to pick up the drinks they had charged for both the wine and cider. I said she only wanted the cider and the lady said "Oh well, it's poured". "You just have to drink them both". Beautiful setting but since both food and service have greatly dropped. It may have been our last time there even though we live within 5 miles. Bummer to see this place deteriorating over the last couple of years. read more

This was a weird one for me. The brewery is located behind several rental cabins. The venue is really nice, but that's where my positive experience ended. This is the first brewery I've been to where they don't provide samples. I decided on the Brett Saison because the woman helping me said it was like a Blue Moon. This tasted nothing like a Blue Moon and if I had been able to sample it, I would have opted for something else. I wanted to get a bite to eat and decided on the turkey melt sandwich. While it was tasty, for $14, I was expecting something to accompany the sandwich. Not only do you have to pick up your food, but you also have to buss your own table. This is not a place I would revisit. read more

Loved the beer and the food, overall great experience, I was checking out the venue for a upcoming wedding.

My friends and I decided to come here for happy hour/early dinner :) I heard the food and beer was amazing so ofcourse I'm all in. For beers I tried two 4oz ones. The coffee based one is the one I really loved (I ended up getting a crowler to take home!). For food we got a variety of items. My sister in laws got the kids grilled cheese for her kid and they both said it was really good. I got the garlic parmesan wings and the zuppa toscana. The wings are the best wings I've had in a very long time the soup was good too but I wish there was a tad more seasoning. My friend got us a cheese board too that had a variety of meats/cheese, nuts etc. Overall we loved the ambiance of the place, the food and the beer! Would love to come back and try other food items/beers when we are back in the area. read more

We attended the "Wild and Weird" event today and WHY did it take us four years since arriving to Midlothian to visit this beautiful place? From the moment of arriving to the property and feeling you have just checked out. The beer was mesmerizing from Fine Creek selections, to tasting of local and other breweries that stirred flavors I've never encountered before. The food was perfection. The standouts to me were the crew, from one of the owners, Mark, to the brewmasters to the service crew. The genuine interest they take and care for of the people visiting will not be forgotten. If you haven't been, please go! read more

We had the BEST time at Fine Creek! We've loved the brewery for a while now and decided to rent the outside area for a coed baby shower with our Richmond friends. Daniel was who we worked with and he made everything about the booking and day of the event so stress free and perfect! Most of our friends had not been to the brewery before our party and they all just loved it. Everyone said they'd be back and a few are thinking about renting it out as well! Also, we ordered a cake from the bakery on site and it went above and beyond expectations and was delicious! Pierre did an amazing job! Our event aside, Fine Creek is an awesome brewery with such great beer and wine and something for everyone. And just the most beautiful outdoor area! You have to go! read more

Was DoorDashing out West of town the other day and decided to take a long break in the Sunshine. I'd been to Fine Creek before and thoroughly enjoyed my experiences there. This time was no exception: Daniel and Dixon, in particular, were very accommodating and friendly, and the House Saison and one of the I.P.A.'s were delicious, as usual. I've eaten there in the past and definitely recommend it, too. read more

Enjoyed our anniversary at Fine Creek Brewery and stayed at one of the cottages located on site. The cottages were super cute and cozy. The brewery was very wide open with an assortment of food and drink options. Beer was okay but you stay for the views and experience. 10/10 would recommend the stay at the cottage. read more

100% something you have to try out if you are up near Powhatan. On site they have cottages to stay if you are having a wedding, and they have a small store with yummy pastries and some small business knick knacks. I did not expect such fresh and tasty food from a brewery. I was more than impressed. The menu changes every month so be sure to try it out at least once! (Hopefully more than once) read more

Excellent beers, delicious food and nice atmosphere. Bartender gave good recommendations and service was quick.

Beautiful outdoor area. Great variety and quality beer. Staff are bustling and attentive. Nice to see some variety that we've missed since moving to Virginia. You'll find more than an IPA, Blond, and Pils here. It will be busy, but they have their system down using pagers. Down side, no dogs allowed on the sprawling patios read more

It's obvious why Fine Creek has so many stellar reviews. They are one of the premier​ craft beer establishments in the Richmond region. The brewery isn't really that far from the city but it feels like it's a world away in the woods of Powhatan. For me, I'd probably be more inclined to return if someone else was driving. I get really anxious in cars, and some of the roads to reach Fine Creek were a little too narrow for me. I was clinging to the steering wheel the entire time. And since I was driving, I only tried little sips of each beer from my friends' pours. But what I did try was high quality, in particular,​ the Tart Grisette. That was the sourest​ beer they had on the day I visited, and I wish I had purchased some to go. It was so well made...and it was nice to see a brewery in this area branch out beyond fruiting up a gose. The brewery grounds are also gorgeous and pristine. They have lots of yard games out front, and they grow their own herbs for their food offerings. We didn't eat while there, but their menu did look incredible. I do hope I can catch a ride with someone else in the future, as it'd be great to really take in the atmosphere once the weather warms up and spend a full afternoon sampling the menu. Another perk is that it's not far at all from the new Hardywood West Creek location and Kindred Spirit. Perfect for a countryside brewery crawl! read more

Ready for a cold one? Looking for a fun place to chill out? Fine Creek Brewery is the spot! A lovely drive to Powhatan takes you to this rustic, serene, countryside property where you can spend the day, or the weekend!! Lovely cottages are available for a getaway or just enjoy a pleasant experience for an afternoon which may creep into the evening!! We sat outside on one of the many picnic tables with our brews! What a relaxing day! We ordered the quiche, the mac n' cheese, strawberry French Toast. The food was outstanding! Their menu changes depending upon what's in season so you can always expect a new flavor for your tastebuds! (I wasn't crazy about carrying that heavy wrought iron table marker to our table, but perhaps they will come up with an easier design.) Inside the taproom, there are cozy leather chairs and some other seating areas. There are games available to play while you drink their refreshing beers!! The grounds are beautifully kept. We walked all through the herb gardens and by the creek. We were delighted to find the quaint gift shop where we purchased some cool finds. There is also an adjacent venue (The Mill) for weddings. What a gorgeous ambiance for your nuptials! Three cheers for Fine Creek Brewery! Hip hip hooray! We will definitely return! read more

First time visiting Fine Creek and it was a terrific experience. The beers are delicious and the food is thoughtfully crafted. We shared the (deconstructed) bruschetta, the turkey sandwich and were very pleased. The biere de vin, the house saison, the grisette rose and their plethora of ipa's have been so much fun to enjoy. The space is absolutely gorgeous and the staff were incredibly friendly. If you haven't been to Fine Creek, I can't recommend it enough. Come on a nice, sunny day to enjoy the outdoor scenery because the fresh flowers would love the company. read more

We hosted the rehearsal dinner for our son's wedding in mid-October at the Brewery. We had about 100 people in attendance; outside under the pavilion. Even with rain 30 minutes before the event, the setting was amazing. The food and beverages were delicious. The Fine Creek Brewing Company had a seasonal Oktoberfest beer that the happy couple named for the occasion. They also served other enjoyable brewed beer and local Virginia wines. The food was delicious and the staff went out of their way to make every detail flawless. It was the perfect event to kick off a beautiful wedding weekend. read more

Great craft beer, excellent ambiance, service is wonderful and the prices good. Great location for get together.

Very rude bartender. Wouldn't allow any tastings. First brewery I have ever experienced this. When asked why that it is. The answer give was, "our bartenders are perfect at describing the beer aromas." Told her that she doesn't know my taste palette. "Well you asked the question," she was informed that she lost a customer. Don't recommend this place. The West Coast was bottom barrel, flat, wrong type of glass poured. read more

Organic beer and delicious cheese plate. So close to home and amazing setting in the Powhatan countryside along the river. Don't miss the sweets at the adorable country store/coffee shop. We'll be back! read more

We recently hosted a 200 person retirement celebration at Fine Creek Brewing Company and it was FABULOUS. Daniel Chiles, the tap room manager is extremely responsive, organized and professional. He made planning and executing a large group event incredibly easy for me. The day of staff at Fine Creek provided exceptional service. They were keeping up with the bartending, clearing tables, meeting guest requests and replenishing food throughout the entire three hour event. I was impressed with quality of the food for a 200+ person buffet. Dietary needs for allergies and intolerances were discussed in advance and accommodated for perfectly. The indoor, outdoor, covered porch and beer garden pergola provided guests with options to meet their comfort needs and all spaces were well cared for, comfortable and lovely. I highly recommend Fine Creek and hope to work with them again in the future! read more

We love Fine Creek! Nestled away next to The Mill at Fine Creek, this little brewery is picture perfect. The inside is Joanna Gaines adorable and the beer selections are impressive. There is usually live music inside or outside. The deck patio is my favorite but if it's full there are about 20 or so nicely spaced large picnic tables just below. I'm NOT huge beer drinker but I can always find atleast two or three here that I like. The flights (3 beer) are a great option if it's your first time. They also have a "Steal the Stein" deal for $14 for the first stein and then I believe a 10 (or 16oz?) cost to fill up after that. They have a few cold brew options made wih Blanchard's coffee though I tend to gravitate towards a Hefeweizen. Lots of room for kids to roam out in the yard where the garden is. Fyi- they cook from this garden.. pretty cool! Oh, the food? Delicious! Due to their early closing time it makes perfect sense that this brewery has a heavier than typical food menu. We had pork sliders, brats, smoked trout on baguette and the cheeseboard. Everything was amazing and the presentation can't be beat. The only negatives? They close relatively early and no dogs allowed (unless a service animal) Definitely worth checking out! read more

I understand covid times and the "new" way of life, but they are insane about masks and group sizes, their approach was less than tactful. Was ordering a beer and another lady ahead of me had received her beverage (while waiting for another bottle of wine) she took a sip of her glass of wine, the lady behind the counter snapped at her put your mask back on, after the lady explained she was taking a sip of her drink the lady behind the counter said if you want to drink go outside you can not drink in here....if you rent a cottage (which are amazing) don't think about taking a beverage to the brewery from your cottage when hanging out with friends. Our group had 11 people and they broke us up saying our party was to big. One person in our group had brought their own beer the rest was going to be buying from the brewery but after the treatment we had we decided to go back to the cottage and enjoy our time together, so they lost a lot of money. Two other table around us said they will not be coming back or recommending this place either. Bottom line, if you are there as a couple it could be good. But I would not go if you're with a group looking to have fun. read more

First time visitor with my wife from Richmond. To hit the Wild & Weird event and have lunch. The space was amazing, tons of outdoor space. I would live their in a flash. The food was excellent and the staff was knowledgeable and polite. Overall, it's a brewery and the food and atmosphere was better than the beer, unfortunately. If not for the food, this would be a 3 star rating. read more

Fine Creek Brewing Company and the Beer Garden Pavilion was the site we selected for our son and his fiancee's rehearsal dinner. From our first contact to the night of the event, they could not have been more responsive and helpful. Daniel and his team made planning for the event so enjoyable. Everyone enjoyed the atmosphere, food and drinks. So nice to be able to celebrate in a casual setting on "the night before". We highly recommend Fine Creek Brewing Company! read more

Highly, highly recommend for your next event! Had a birthday party for my husband here recently and we all had a marvelous time. The setting, the food, the drinks - all top notch. We were so appreciative of the staff and the help they provided throughout the planning, making and execution of our party. It was such a perfect night! read more

Awesome brewery off the beaten path! The taproom is a great design with a beer counter featuring many beer options. Something for everyone, they have beers ranging from lighter lagers, to a variety of IPAs, to sours. There are brews to go in bottles and cans. There is live music on the weekends and the location is awesome to hang out. My husband and I loved the views of the quaint cottages and even looked into planning a mini night getaway as we sipped and sat in the Adirondack chairs. The food looks fantastic! They have a more upscale brewery option of foods that feature menu items that you might see at a winery (charcuterie plates, pimento and crostini, etc) We could spend all day here! read more

Fine Creek Brewing Company - Brews on the patio - Breweries Near Me - Powhatan, Virginia

Went here last night for hubby's birthday and was a little disappointed. While the beer was fabulous, the food left something to be desired. The grilled cheese description made it sound upscale, but there was very little cheese for such thick slices of bread. Panera's would put this to shame. The charcuterie board was over-priced for what was there. Next time it will be for beer only. read more

Thank you Fine Creek Brewery, for hosting the best retirement party my husband could ever imagine! And, the rest of us had a blast! The food, the beer, the location, the caring staff. It was marvelous. Daniel so pleasantly & masterfully coordinated the space, menu, timing, cost, all sorts of ideas & kept it all a surprise for our guest of honor. That night we throughly enjoyed Sarah's delicious, creative & beautiful cuisine. We were truly pampered by the staff, Anne, Allie, Cristy. JJ managed it all so smoothly & perfectly. We all love JJ:) The outdoor space was perfect, even in winter. We felt so at home & nurtured, especially after hours when they close up to the public & you have the entire tap room to yourselves. It was a memorable evening, one we'll always remember with joy:) What a crew & what a venue, what a night!! Fine Creek has always made our favorite beer, been our favorite brewery, now our favorite venue too! read more

They were so easy to work with, and the food, beers, wines, service were fabulous! So many guests commented on how impressed they were with everything. Highly recommend! read more

This used to be a great place to come and hang out. The customer service has been really bad the last couple of times we have been here. When I mentioned that I might stop coming because of it the employee said "That's your choice" Obviously they don't care if you come or to treat people right. I would rather go somewhere that wants to at least try to make the experience a good one. read more

Beautiful location and facilities. Food is yummy and flavorful. We've been several times and have enjoyed introducing new people to the Fine Creek experience. A couple of things keep us from rating it higher. #1 they only allow service dogs. While we do not have dogs, upon 2 occasions...new friends that we wished to introduce to Fine Creek were disappointed that their furry family member was not welcome. #2 they don't provide samples. I'm sorry, the only place I've ever been that charges you to taste their beverages. I understand not providing samples of other wineries/breweries, but they charged our friends for a single taste. It was their first time visiting and I hate to say, they may not return. (Our entire group has traveled to wineries in California and in France.... and THEY don't charge for tasting.) Needless to say, conversations during this visit was focus on dogs and charging for a single sample... instead of the lovely surroundings and a fun escape from the city. read more
