Disc Golf Trail Work

Date: Saturday, July 26th

Time: 9:00 a.m. ‘Til Sunset

We are working on a special project at LCCB. It’s a top secret operation that we need your help with. It’s not really that secret, we’re just working on a disc golf course.

Sean-Thomas Pumphrey pretending to work hard

We’re doing A LOT of trail work around the farm to get ready for the unveiling of the soon-to-be-coolest-thing-ever (disc golf course). So if you love the outdoors, working on trails and fighting off multiple species of insects that you never knew existed, we’ve got the perfect Saturday in store for you.

Join the fantastic people who love Disc Golf in the Central Virginia area that have done so much on the course at LCCB already.

People who help with the course will be rewarded for their hard work with the admiration and respect of your fellow man (Just kidding. You get a cool LCCB shirt).

We’ll be getting started at 9:00 a.m. and going ‘Til Sunset. Bring some work gloves, sunscreen and bug spray and we’ll provide plenty of trail work.

Don’t worry. It’s not all work. We’ve got music from Dave McKenney and Ryan Hearn going on throughout the day and fantastic Crab Cakes from the Haywood Grill.

Also, we’re one of the last places on planet Earth where you can find bottles of Batchelors Delight and Nuclear Nugget at the same spot.

See y’all at the farm.

Greatest. Thing. Ever

We’ve had a lot of fun over the past nine months since we’ve opened and done some pretty cool things, but nothing, I mean nothing compares to the awesomeness of this:

The talented bakers at Sugar Shack Donuts in Richmond may have created the greatest thing to ever be made: Enlightened Despot Donuts.  Not sure about y’all, but eating bourbon barrel stout donuts is why God put me on Earth.  They are on sale today (Saturday July 19th) at there Jackson Ward location.

The National Beer Expo

Today (Saturday July 19th) is also the first time the National Beer Expo is being hosted in my hometown of Richmond, Virginia.  I am very proud to have LCCB be a part of this prestigious event.  We will be pouring the Batchelors Delight Rum Barrel Quad, Three Chopt Tripel and Magic Beaver all day.  Tickets can be purchased on their web page or at the door. Stop by, have a beer and say hi. Lisa and I will be there throughout the course of the day.

Where to Find the Batchelors Delight:

Your best shot will be to drive out to the farm and buy bottles there.  We only allocated just over 20 cases to the RVA & NOVA markets.  Each of these locations only got one case and won’t take delivery until next week.

Here’s the list:

We have been on overdrive since the Pirate Party for the Release of Batchelors Delight Rum Barrel Aged Quad (BD).  The event went very well, the bands sounded great and everyone seemed to have a lot of fun.  We did sell a ton of BD at the event, but we still have some for sale in the Tasting Room.  It’s not very much, so if you missed the release make sure to stop by the brewery soon.  We will be open all weekend. Oh, and we do still have some Nuclear Nugget, but we’re down to our last 10 cases of that one.

We have just started selling our beer in other parts of Virginia.  This week we have been at four fantastic restaurants in the Charlottesville area.  Boylan Heights, Mellow Mushroom, Citizen Burger Bar & Rapture were fantastic partners in LCCB Tap Takeovers.  We were blown away by the cool people and the great food.  We’re looking forward to being a large part of the Cville Craft Beer Scene.

In other news, we have an amazing Beer Dinner coming up with Mosaic on August 2nd.  Make sure you call to get reservations soon before it fills up.  Click HERE for more info.

Gotta run.

Hand Numbering Each Bottle

Hand Labeling

Name Origin:
Like all great legends the facts are in dispute. Batchlors Delight is named for one of the most notorious and important pirate ships in history. Captained by the infamous buccaneers Davis, Wafer and Hingson, who won the ship in a card game. After years of pirating in the Caribbean the trio were set on retiring in Virginia. They were arrested near Hampton Roads and spent nearly 3 years in prison. They were able to negotiate their freedom by giving up a large portion of their booty, which King William used for the “Charitable Purpose” of founding the College of William and Mary.
