Lots o’ love for beer and business
We love beer. Our first conversation/argument was about how dumb I was for not drinking IPA’s. Kate enlightened me on the subject and ever since we have been happily travelling around enjoying various IPA’s from various breweries.
We also love local companies and supporting them as much as possible. Combining two of our love’s means we like to visit local breweries as much as possible.
While visiting friends and family in Norfolk, VA we found O’Connor Brewing.
From backyard to brewery
O’Connor Brewing was started by Kevin O’Connor when we learned about craft beer and started brewing at home. Since then we immersed himself in the industry to learn how to brew successfully and commercially. Today they have a litany of beers on tap in their taproom and sell them by the six pack, 22oz, and growler.
Tasty Tasters of Tasty Beers
Naturally we sampled all 7 of their current beers on tap. We liked some better than others but all were tasty and in the end we got a growler of their Great Dismal Black IPA
