Come hang with us at the Bluemont Fair!
One of the best times of year in our little village of Bluemont is the annual fair! Come on out to experience some old-fashioned fun!
“Bring your family and friends to the annual Bluemont Fair and take a day to wander through our 200-year-old village nestled in the foothills of the Blue Ridge mountains. Browse our artisan crafts and enjoy local wine, beer, and music, all while experiencing the history and traditions of our area. Grab a bite to eat or attend an archaeology demonstration while the children enjoy free games in the Children’s Fair or visit the petting zoo. Breathe in some mountain air, have fun, learn something new, and start checking off that holiday gift list, all for less than the price of a movie. (And kids 9 and under get in free!) See you at the Fair!”

Join us for our Pumpkin Ale Beer Release + Nomini Bay Oyster Fest at Dirt Farm Brewing!

Nothing makes us more excited than the leaves changing and the crisp air that fall brings. To celebrate, we are releasing one of our favorite seasonal ales. Pumpkin Ale Beer Release + Nomini Bay Oyster Fest + Live Music!

Starting in the fields, we pick over 200 pounds of neck pumpkins per batch. After harvesting, we roast the neck pumpkins with brown sugar and add them to our amber ale base. We then add our secret blend of fall spices to the boil to complete the batch. The end result of this labor of love is an authentic pumpkin ale loaded with not so #basic pumpkin spice flavor.

And just when we thought we couldn’t have any more fun, Nomini Bay Oyster Fest has been added to the mix! Y’all know they are a hoot! Enjoy raw or charbroiled oysters, with specialty options that pair perfectly with your Dirt Farm beer.

These guys have been playing music for years and if you’re local you’ll know they are legends for blues and roots rock! “The Nighthawks step forward with two new members: Dan Hovey on guitar and Paul Pisciotta on bass. Dan delivers strong lead vocals along with his tasty guitar playing, and Paul brings the band’s already famous four-part harmonies to a new level. Drummer Mark Stutso’s singing and songwriting make him an audience favorite. And founder, lead singer and harpmaster Mark Wenner is still at the helm. With some 30 recordings and local and international awards to their credit, The Nighthawks are still churning out new material while drawing on more than four decades’ worth of signature tunes for their legendary live shows.” Get ready to rock, my friends, because once these guys get started you’re going to be movin’ and groovin’ your way through the night!
