About Vibrissa Beer: Our journey began in 2015 when a few brave souls got the wild-assed idea that Front Royal, with its vibrant outdoor culture, real people, and appreciation of everything unpretentious, was a natural beer town. Over a few brews, our founders decided to invest their time and money in making Vibrissa – and great beer – a reality. After many false starts and a few near-death experiences, we’ve now weathered the storm and have assembled a talented team that has been been creating a great gathering place to enjoy award-winning beer and great food. In September 2022, we decided to embark on crazy again and open Vibrissa Beer and Kitchen in Old Town Winchester, VA, a city with an established beer scene and strong craft beer culture. We love being part of the party! Craft beer mecca, gourmet restaurant, music venue, dope outdoor area – take your pick. Vibrissa has it all! Learn more about us at www.vibrissabeer.com.
