Brass Cannon Management and Staff would like to thank everyone who made our dream of making and serving great beer a reality and who helped us along the way but, our battle is over. We put up a fight for more than 10 years. We invested in new brew gear and built a new facility. We made great, uncompromising beer. We survived the COVID.

But we find ourselves now in an over saturated market rushing to the bottom and in an inflationary economy with the
resultant rising interest rates and, we are not willing to reduce quality, cut cost corners or raise prices. So…
“Tell them we quit… for the love of the beer.”

We will start winding down operations on August 1, 2022 with an operational last day no later than Oct 1.

Patrons can expect the Cannon Tap Room to operate quasi-normally through August and perhaps more sporadically
through September. Please check our website for hours as we go, as we will be updating it regularly based upon staffing.

We can’t thank everyone enough for the ride! We leave the craft beer business with a song in our hearts, having
loved the experience.

Cheers!
The Management and Staff of Brass Cannon

Our Story

Brass Cannon is a Veteran and W&M Alum owned craft beer micro-brewery and tap room, called The Cannon. Tightly tied to the community in which we live, Brass Cannon was founded in 2012 by local enthusiastic beer fans and home brewers.

Initially, we were a bootstrapped operation cobbling together a 100 gallon “Franken-Rig” from commercial steam heated dough frier components in Toano VA. That was the rig where home brewers learned that commercial brewing is another animal entirely. It became clear that to make quality beer and to do it over and over again, a new rig would be required. The result was a move down the road to Williamsburg and to design and install a brand new 20 barrel (620 gallon) all stainless steel gas fired brew rig in a purpose built building. Throughout all the ups and downs of this tumult and the ever changing craft beer business, we never lost our commitment to the beer. Because that is how it started... We just wanted to make good beer that could be enjoyed with friends.
