Solace Brewing Company

This is hands down our favorite brewery in Northern Virginia! The beer list is very IPA heavy and best in class in the region imo. The menu isn’t exactly rotating but there are some changes every month. For non IPA drinkers, there’s a few good lager, Pilsner and sour options available too. The food is usually great, with the spicy chicken tenders in Nashville sauce, burgers, and bowls being great options although vegetarian options are limited unfortunately. But what makes this place truly remarkable is the absolutely best staff, always upbeat, helpful, engaging and just creating a very friendly atmosphere that some larger breweries in NoVa lack. In terms of ambience, this brewery doubles as an arcade with a lot of game options for fun with friends and family. It’s also fun to watch football or basketball games here on the large projector and TVs at the bar, but with no sound and no TVs in the regular sitting area so I wouldn’t target this specifically as a sports pub. Wednesdays are bingo nights, there’s live music on Fri/Sat depending on the week and Sundays offer discounted take-home beer purchases. Overall, this place always has a mix of regulars and new visitors, great beer, good food and great staff and is absolutely worth visiting.

The totchos were a revelation, the beer was fantastic, and the music slapped. Thank you, Solace & Felix Pickles ♡

Paid my first visit to Honor Brewing: Sat down at the bar and waited a couple minutes. Two guys walked up next to me and we're immediately greeted an served. A couple minutes later a beer menu was dropped in front of me and the first acknowledgement of my presence was offered. About five minutes later, a different bar tender asked if I would like to order. I told her I'd like a flight (4 beers) I named the first two, at which time she was interrupted by another staff member for about a 30 second conversation. As that concluded, another customer on the opposite side bar waved her over, and she dutifully responded to his urgent needs. This veteran then went across the street to Solace and had a flight of four excellent beers; Crazy, 2 Legit, Rome, Red. All 5-star beers, promptly served, from which I had to choose one as a 4 pack to take home with me.

My family and I have been here a few times and love hanging out and playing the arcade games with our kids, but this was our first time ordering food. Best chicken sandwich I have ever had. Seriously delicious. The kids meals fantastic and a steal. My husband got the spicy chicken thighs which were also incredible. Thank you.

This has become one of our go-to spots when we want good beer, good food, and great service. Our taste leans toward the darker beers, which there aren’t a lot of, but what they have are excellent. Their food is amazing, too! I grab a burger with curly fries and am never disappointed. Shout out to Clay and Middle who always provide top-notch service.

My wife and I visited this Brewery in Sterling, Va. Great beers on tap. Good IPA, wine available. Very good food. Lots of games for the kids. Plenty of Table seats.

Probably in my top 3 favorite breweries in NoVA, always a great beer selection and we'll worth the trip to Dulles area to get it fresh on tap. AWESOME taproom...huge, comfortable, lots of room to spread out, plenty of TVs for sports-gawking as well as a sizeable selection of pinball and game consoles. A few tables near the front entrance for sitting outside but even more on the backside along with occasional food trucks there. We will be returning regularly to Solace's taproom!

This brewery happens to be pretty close to my house, which is cool because we live on the fringes. They also happen to be quite good. They offer a variety of styles, but specialize in IPAs (this is the USA after all). I love their brewery space, though. Great food trucks, chill atmosphere, really friendly staff. It is a friendly space where kids and dogs are welcome. There are a bunch of old arcade games to play, and plenty of socially spaced seating. They offer curbside pickup, and a cooler inside with four packs to go. They will also pour crowlers and growlers for you. With Ocelot just a bit further up the road, you can make a day out of brewery touring. What's not to love?

Lots of open seating, friendly staff, and good beer. Hoping their kitchen will offer decent food!

Walked into the brewery - smelled like a brewery. So far so good, I knew I was in the right place. The brewery was huge, had some awesome tables, and Duck Donuts was outside, serving up tasty goodness (my first time, don't judge me). Me and a few friends showed up to participate in a puzzle competition, and so after we settled in, grabbed a couple beers, some pretzels, and shared a half dozen donuts, we were ready to get our puzzle on! We grabbed the puzzle, and puzzled, wrapping up in 41 minutes, took some pictures, turned our puzzle in. We noted the time that we started and stopped, because we figured we did pretty good (41 minutes!), and went to grab the event coordinator. She took our puzzle and time, nodded, checked, said thanks, and walked back behind the bar to write it down. Later on, without telling anyone who won and who didnt, she walked out! Passed us right by! We thought that was kinda odd, since we had talked to a bartender previously whom stated the the closest team to us was somewhere around 50 minutes. Two hours later, Solace posted that the winning puzzle was 51 minutes, and somehow we hadn't won. The math wasn't mathing. Now all that isn't really a problem, it was a fun competition and if someone beat us, I don't mind. But when we followed up and asked what happened, the lady behind the counter said that we had us at clocked in at an over an hour (1, false and we had pictures) and that she had already thrown away the sign in sheets that she had written things down on (2, who does that when there's money involved?), then shrugged and moved on with her life. The beer was fine, but the dishonesty from the staff was disheartening. If you do go do a contest in the future, might as well bug the person running the event and make sure she acknowledges you, and you get your time written down. Its petty, I get it, but still disappointing. I think that me and my group of five will not return to the brewery.

Liked the arcade games! Mainly only played basketball & pacman. You get 100 credits for 5 dollars, and pay by card. Doesn't accept coins. Came on a saturday, and was 2 of 6 people in the whole place which was surprising. The whole place has a very strong musty smell. Bartender was nice!

Good beer, but the actual space is cavernous and a bit void of any level of ambiance. Beertenders are friendly and attentive. Probably 3.5 stars

Nice, chill brewery. It's bring your own food with a lot of tables and space. The beers I've tried so far have been good. I've also had the beer flight which was worth to try out the different options.

We love going to Solace to chill: good food trucks and delish beer, arcade for kids. What else do you need in this life!

I visited for the first time and was impressed. They have a good variety of beer options. The place is very clean and the staff was nice. You can see into their brewing room which is cool. And they have pinball and a few other games. I would recommend trying if you're in the area.

If you want to adventure to Sterling you should stop by this chill brewery. They have arcades! I didn't play as it was an event going on, however will go back to give it a try. The employees were knowledgeable and super friendly. I felt safe without my mask as tables were distance from each other.

Damn good beer. If you Ike ipa's this is your place. What you can get in the store - party cloud or juicy Lucy is better on tap. Lots of seating. Kid area. No food. Has food trucks. Check website. Arcade machines are prevalent but loud.

Wish they had longer hours. Awesome place - dog friendly and arcade friendly. Good selection of brews and tasty!

Neat place with plenty of parking. It's actually a pretty large building and well decorated. Decent amount of beers on tap and wish I was able to try a flight. I really liked the Christmas Winterbock and will likely come back! Limited Bar seating but plenty of seating inside and a well priced beers! Also dog friendly. They do have a lot of IPAs on tap but other beers too for those who aren't a fan!

You can always count on the breweries to be open when the wineries close. We visited Solace Brewing Company after wine tasting, which was a fun way to end our day of booze. Solace reminded me of the many solid breweries I've been to before: it's open and spacious, there's a chalkboard menu of the daily taps and TVs throughout were playing sports. No complaints here. Being from Washington, I'm particular about my IPAs, especially when I'm on the east coast. But I gotta say, Solace had a good list of different IPAs the night we visited. Unfortunately during COVID-19, they are not allowing a tasting flight, but they do offer beers in half pours. And when the bartender poured the beer, it was definitely more than half. Again, no complaints here. The beer were solid. Though I didn't find the bitter, imperial-style IPA that I tend to lean towards, the IPAs were solid. And I'm glad to know that Solace is making its way around town, offering craft beers, which far exceed Budweiser and beyond. I recommend stopping by for a beer here when in the Sterling area.

The beer is tasty, the atmosphere is fun, and service is good. Every-time I'm close I stop in for a beer.

Very nice brewery with an awesome environment and beer choices. One of the best in Nova. Highly recommended. Limited appetizer choices. They have a good truck show up which was not there when we visited.

Wide selection of beers - I am an IPA drinker and the various IPAs are excellent. I suggest trying all, but "foggy" something or another was my favorite. Here are my comments on the place: Great design - one of those breweries that is nicely set up and comfortable to be in. I just love to be there. Dog friendly - Everyone seems to have a dog (including me). I would say Solace Brewery is very very dog friendly. Clientele - this is a fun and friendly place, lots of people bring the kids, there are a large selection of pinball games on one side of the brewery that are fun for adults and kids. People are quite friendly - I always end up talking with folks I did not know before arriving. I recommend Solace Brewery as a stop on any visit to the northern Virginia brewery circuit, and it is one of my favorites.

I stopped by on the way home from work to see the facility and check out some beers. They have slightly earlier hours than some breweries in the area. Entering the front doors you notice the massive tanks at the back of the space, then a gaming area to the left with modern arcade, pinball machines and picnic tables. In front of the glass wall separating the tanks from the main room stretches a lengthy bar. I played it safe to start with a partly cloudy and a lucy juicy, both were great. Followed that up with a taste of the barrel aged stout and another IPA. Stout was super tasty, the IPA which was pitched as their least popular was decent.

Solace is a large open space with a long bar and a separate kids area. It's very dog friendly, so bring the kids (or the fur-kids) grab a brew and settle in to watch a game on the big tv's spread across the bar. The bar was clean and, because it was so large, there was no problem getting served. They brewed a range of beers, from wheat to stout to IPA's, each with a great flavor and intensity. They let you try samples and even have a flight option if you can't choose... or just want to try them all! Hungry? There's a food truck with some pretty great smelling food outside! Snacks like jerky from a local spot are available for purchase in the bar. There's a bunch of outdoor seating too! A small (but cool) detail are the special foot sliders on the bottom of the bathroom r wooing you to open the bathroom door without touching it! Perfect for flu season haha!

Great beer and I'll be back. It's a large space that can be quite noisy on a Sunday after sporting events - I prefer the ambiance at Solace Outpost.

Another great brewery in the NOVA area! The building is spacious with beer hall style seating and a large wrap around bar. They have a good number of pinball machines at 75 cents a play, and a few video games. I love the glass windows behind the bar, giving you a peek into the brewing process. The beers here are really solid. My faves were the the very lightly autumnal spiced She Made Me and the NEIPA Partly Cloudy. They have a great selection of merch, and food trucks seem to come on the regular. Definitely give them a visit!

The first thing that hits you when you walk in is just how huge this tasting room is. You could throw a football around inside. We tried the full menu tasting flight. Lots of IPA and Pale ale stuff, just like everyone else, but here are the beers that stood out: Sun's Out Hops Out the ABV 4.7% Session IPA is brewed with Citra and Mosaic hops. I thought this is a perfect summer hot day outside beer. Very crisp with great citra notes but not too much booze. Beer : 30 is a Brown ale clocking in at 5.8%. For some reason not many local breweries are doing brown ales, so cheers to Solace for having one on the menu. They did a great job with Beer 30. Would love to pair with anything involving red meat. Manhunt is a 7% stout. Motor oil dark with a coffee forward roast notes. coffee. While available on nitro we had it straight. This is a great stout and would be enjoyed by anyone who loves this style of beer. The Lucy Juicy is a 8% Double India Pale Ale (DIPA). Somewhat fruity balanced with serious El Dorado and Simcoe hops. This was a complex IPA with lots of flavor. We purchases a 32oz growler of this. Atmosphere is great with lots of flat screens to catch a game on. Good mix of adults out with other adults and families. Plenty of parking. Good service. Good grubbin' food truck was there and the whole set up seems to be good for food trucks. Bottom line: ok there are lots of breweries in NoVA. But this one is a stand out and deserves your visit.

We visited Solace Brewing Co. this past Monday, July 3. The brewery had special hours that holiday weekend - they are not usually open on Mondays. We arrived about 15 minutes after they had opened - around 2:15 pm. There were not yet many customers - so we had a chance to ask Holly, our beer tender - lots of questions about the brewery. We both went with a full tasting flight: Suns Out - Hops Out Session IPA (4.7% ABV) Brown Bomber Brown Ale (5.8% ABV) Patiently Waiting India Pale Lager (6.7% ABV) Beach Bod Summer Ale (5.7%) Serenity Now IPA (6.0% ABV) 2 Legit 2 Wit (5.7% ABV) My favorite brew was the "Patiently Waiting" India Pale Lager (IPL). Crisp and refreshing - a nice beer for hot summer days. One of the beers - I believe it was the Suns Out - Hops Out Session IPA - had a strange olfactory situation going on. Mine had warmed up a bit - before I tasted it. The beer had a rather funky and unpleasant odor and taste. Yet, when my friend Alex arrived - he ordered a full pint of the same beer - I tasted his - fresh and very cold - and the beer did not exhibit the "funkiness" we observed in a warmer version of the beer. Service was very good. We enjoyed chatting with the staff and chilling and hanging out. There is plenty of space - and the tasting room AC worked well enough so that it was comfy inside on a hot summer day. We did notice the Men's rest room felt like an absolute sauna. There was hot air blowing out of the vents. Very unpleasant! We reported this to the staff. Don't know what they plan to do to address the issue. I look forward to coming back and trying out some of their other brews! #SolaceBrewingCo

Was here for a company event and they rented out the private space to the left with the arcade games. This brewery is very spacious and has a large bar. I'm not a beer drinker, but I did have the sours and they were good. Pretty decent selection of beers for those that do drink beer. I don't think they typically serve any kind of food here, but you might be able to bring your own?

One of my favorite places in northern Virginia for a good beer. They have a great ambiance with a industrial/warehouse-style interior. They also have outdoor seating in the summer which is great. Love that this place is dog friendly and there's food trucks there too if you want to grab a bite to eat. Will definitely make a trip back here soon.

I was genuinely shocked at Solace. After having visited a number of hole-in-the-wall breweries, I had started to get the impression they were all like that. But not here! This place is HUUUUGE, with a kids/family area, massive area for tanks (and room to expand), and 8 flagship beers on tap (and another one on rotation). Genuine shock! I asked around and learned that Solace indeed has eyes for expansion, and built this place with that in mind. They also built it for crowds, to include several flat screen TVs on the walls. If I had one complaint, is their beer lineup was IPA-heavy. Of course, if you're an IPA lover this is a bonus, not a problem. Suns Out Session IPA: It was advertised as relatively light on bitterness, but still too much for me. Belgian Wit: Pretty good; I could have done with more fruit notes, but definitely drinkable. Beach Bod: Excellent! Made with the Wit and watermelon. Manhunt Stout (Nitro and regular): I liked both, but preferred the smoother nitro over the nuttier stout.

Every beer I wanted to try was out on a Sunday, so I will definitely come back to see if I can try them. Really a bummer when you are out of 4-5 things and the Crazy Pils is the only non IPA-y item to drink, which is recommended to be close to a Budlight. The food truck they had there was pretty good (Res BBQ) and the space was big but acoustics make it really loud, especially with all the kids running around. A place I would come in the winter since there is not outside seating and it gets loud with the kids running around.

Great selection of beer and live music on A Friday night. We came for a private event and don't usually come out to this area. Would recommend.

Absolutely love this place. Have only been here during early hours. This is where I discovered my favorite hazy IPA of all time- Partly Cloudy. The lights are really cool. I wish I could take this place home and keep it. Damn, that was a good beer. Partly Cloudy for thee win!!!!

Hospitality was not good at all. Was told due to covid times as I pulled my mask down to taste a beer, as everyone else sitting has no mask at all on and I am 6'+ behind the counter, "I'm gonna need that mask all the way up 'my guy.'" And my brother the same response as he asked questions about beers for taste profiles. Never being to Solace before, there are no beer tastes, but have to pay for an 8oz pour which was definitely not 8oz, it was at best for three purchased beers 6oz each.

HUGE brewery! They have a private area designated for kids to run around. There is a door that separates them (so they do not interfere with the alcohol section). Outside food is also allowed there in the kids section. They have food trucks when it is warm out. TV's are available for game time and lots of picnic tables (inside to hang out away from the bar).

Rude service when we came in with the kids and so so beer. Much better beer elsewhere in LoCo. Been there twice and figured to try it a second time. Same conclusion on round 2 with the beer. Cool atmosphere.... And that's it.

This was my first visit to this brewpub. It is large and modern. It was very crowded the day I visited. Guests had to wait in line at the bar for service. For the most part, they only serve beer. Some other beverages for non-beer drinkers are available from a cooler. The food service consists of a limited number of snacks. A food truck was parked outside. Visitors can bring their own food. They have a decent selection of beers. I liked their Lucy Juicy Double IPA best. While their beers were decent, I won't be going out of my way to return.

Excellent customer service, thank you! This location is near my house and is giving Ocelot (that other awesome brewing co just a couple miles away. It was on our way home from Happy Hour at Reston's McCormick & Schmicks when we dropped by just to check out what my friend and her beer-lover hubby Russ were fussing about, telling me how close this place was from my house that they told me I could practically walk to it. Anyway, the building has a wide open concept and I like that they have glass walls separating the tasting area from the steel tanks brewing the beer. It's like the building was divided in half, and the glass wall from end to end separates the two area. It does make for a good viewing so that's a plus. They also made it kid friendly and set aside a section for customers bringing in the little ones. The $1 suggestion for the all u can eat popcorn, scoop yourself was a nice touch. They are definitely bigger or appear to be bigger than Ocelot the way the place was laid out so I'm impressed! They offer lots of good selection of beers, a red wine concoction for those of you non-beer drinkers, and home brew sparkling flavored water of either a choice of lemon or blood orange. Oh yeah, don't expect the sparkling water to look like blood orange - it's just the flavoring and not necessary adapting to the blood red color, for a $1 was a great option for designated drivers like myself. Because it was about an hour before closing time, we stayed only long enough for to get a taste of one beer and for me the sparkling blood orange flavored water but a definite must come back to. I have to try the red wine on the menu next time.

Good beer and nice facility. Family friendly with a kids only section to separate families and adults. Pinball machines, food truck, and they allow you to bring your own food makes it easy. TVs for sports viewing. Highly recommend.

Beer is decent but the location is out of the way. There was only three other people in the entire place. I liked the logo and brewing side is very impressive. No food, no food truck, so eat before you come here.

This place was very bright and open space w/fantastic customer service. Granted, we were the 1st ones in on a Saturday. We came w/an appetite, but to no fault of Solace, their food truck bailed on them that morning! Not cool, food truck. Had some really good beers. The beach bod was real good! In the end we ended up ordering food from jimmy johns, but that took 45minutes(they only had 1 driver on a Saturday). They have a family & kid area, but it's not separated by an actual room, so if a kid is fussing or screaming, your gonna hear it! I liked that the ladies room had more than just two stalls, like many other places do. That will help when it's super crowded.

I had a flight for $15.50, which seemed a bit of a rip-off, but whatever. The Crazy Pils was decent, the Its Electric Blueberry was great, but everything else was not good. I also really didn't like seeing NEWBORN BABIES in a loud and noisy brewery. As a parent, you suck. The brewery has video games and pinball machines. If you ever wanted to play the scarce Medieval Madness pinball game but never got the chance, you can play it here.

Solace has good beer and is a nice place to hang out with my dog! The food truck here is from Smiling Tummy Thai and is world class! We just had the curry puffs, fried chicken, Pad Thai, and spring rolls. It was perfectly paired with the Solace Partly Cloudy and a Juicy Lucy. Love this place! And GRIFFIN (the dog) loved all the food too!

The craft beer boom continues in the US and I continue to benefit from this shift. The newly opened brewery sports a vast tap room with a modern decor. They have samples, half pours, full pours and growler fills. There's tons of room for large parties in this tap room and a glass wall separates the taproom from the brewing facility. They also have food trucks feeding the masses, in today's case a Thai food truck that served up some delicious and pricy drunken noodles and curry puffs. The curry puff was the most expensive and tastiest I've ever had (wow two records broken). Their beer focuses on IPAs but that doesn't mean there still isn't a full lineup of beers for each palate such as their light summer wheat ale, the bready nutty brown ale, and the toasty coffee stout. I enjoyed all of their beers but the Long vacation IPA and the patiently waiting IPL were especially delicious. The long vacation had tropical melon and strawberry flavor notes while the patiently waiting had a winey and fruity Cabernet Sauvignon grape notes. I would've loved the juicy Lucy but they were all tapped out so I guess I'll just have to return! This is a great brewery for large groups to visit and be rowdy. Tons of open space, great drinking environment, food truck food, and flowing beer taps. Atmosphere: 4/5 Food/drink: 4/5 Cost: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Overall: 4/5

I was a Solace mug club member pre-COVID during the first year they offered membership. My wife and I live less than three miles from the Brewery and enjoyed the beers, location and at that time, the staff. However, during a visit at Halloween years ago with friends who had never been to Solace, one of the beer tenders was visibly "put out" because we had our dogs in the brewery--which by the way is permitted. After a number of dirty looks we got, we decided that Solace was not worthy of our business and stopped patronizing a once "favorite spot." On Mon Jan 2, we decided to give Solace another try. It was a warm day and we stopped in right after they opened, so it wasn't that busy. I waited in line to grab our beers and I noticed how rude the beer tender was to the patrons who were in front of me in line, noting that the patrons even said thank you to her, and she didn't even respond with a simple "you're welcome." When my wife went to purchase our second round, with the same beer tender, who's customer service was so poor, I wondered how she could even be in the "people business" since customer experience at breweries is paramount. As we sat outside on the deck, we overheard the table next to us mention how much attitude this same beer tender gave them when placing their order--the sad part about it was that these folks were obviously from out of the area as they ordered flights and commented that they'd never been to Solace before. We really want to frequent this place since it's so close to home, but the attitude is just too much and I can take my business to so many other places and not feel like I'm doing the establishment a favor. This is also particularly bad for Solace with Honor Brewing being established across the street which is where we'll be spending our hard-earned cash as we've received nothing but top shelf treatment during our visits to Honor. Drew, John and the Solace management team, you're losing customers and business. So disappointed, we won't be back!

Solace is solid! Good beers, with many styles to choose from. Massive space inside, that does feel a bit empty. Sparsely decorated, but after all, it is a pretty high volume brewery and the space def feels beer-brewing centric and not especially cozy. That being said had very personable service and really enjoyed my time bellied up to the bar. Convenient stop if you are running a little early on the way to Dulles. Beer to go available, including kegs if you are very thirsty. I will be back in to see their latest offering to be sure. Drink local!

Solace Brewing Co. has a pretty cool thing going - nice big space and fun beers to drink. Plenty of tables to sit and hang out at, bathrooms are clean. I'm not a huge beer drinker and typically don't like IPAs but I founds theirs to be very easy to drink. All of the beers have a bit of bite to them. You can build a flight for $3 per tasting glass. As of right now, they have about 7 beers on tap. They don't serve food but there's a BBQ truck outside - not much going on there for the vegetarians and probably nothing at all for the vegans among us. Beware, the beans have pork in them.

Ohmygosh, Solace is amazing! My fiancé and I came here for a drink over Labor Day weekend. We were looking for a brewery where we could just hang out, have some food, and enjoy some craft beer. This was the perfect fix. The space is huge and open, with plenty of seating at both a bar area and tables. The staff is super friendly. We chatted with servers staff members over our three hours there's. And, most importantly, the beer is excellent. My fiancé did a flight, landing on the 2 Wit as his favorite. I just asked for the darkest beer they had, and I was so pleasantly surprised. The girl who served us also informed me about some delightful dark beers coming in the fall, which made me want to come back ASAP. To top it all off, they had an awesome BBQ food truck there that day! The prices are great, the atmosphere is awesome, and you should definitely stop in, if you're in the area!

Great spot to stop for an afternoon beverage. Kid area is great and staff was helpful and pleasant. Will be back again!

We took an Uber out here from Fairfax (recommend). The beer is great and today they had a really good Thai food truck. The place is huge and seems to have a family kid friendly spot and then some high top tables. We sat the bar. It's dog friendly and we saw the cutest dogs ever. We will come back for the beer for sure.

Loved our pit stop after a hike at Solace! The brewery offers a wide open space with a separate area for families with children. The bar tenders were all very friendly and gave us samples to help us decide what beers to include in our flights. The prices were very reasonable and there was plenty of indoor seating. The outdoor patio wasn't open unfortunately, even though the weather was nice enough for it! My favorite beer was the Juicy Lucy and they also had 4 packs on sale for $16. A bit pricey, but the cans were tallboys and the double IPA packs an alcoholic punch. A great place to spend a few hours trying some different beers and chatting with friends. The tables are large to accommodate big groups. They didn't have any food on site for sale, but a food truck pulls up on the reg and offers GREAT barbecue. We happened to be sitting next to the food truck owner's daughter who gave us the low down on the BBQ - the brisket is his pride and joy! We ordered it and it did not disappoint! The BBQ is the perfect counter balance to ordering lots of beer and sobering up to drive home to DC. Highly recommend the brewery & food truck pairing! I would definitely drive out again or stop by if I was passing through the area again. It's a bit out of the way, but it was definitely worth the trip.

I went here the other day after work. I tried a sampling of 5 beers and enjoyed them all. One of the owners, John, took time out of his afternoon to answer questions I had about the brewery, and brewing in general. He was very nice and I appreciated the customer service. The owners have a good background in alcohol including working for Beltway Brewing and Paradise Springs Winery. I look forward to tasting more beers in the future. I hope they do a good sour :). Tasting room: large and spacious with bottomless popcorn - yum!

Came for the first time on a Sunday to try some brews. The interior is a huge, beautiful open space with a picnic table area inside for families. I got to try: *Watermelon ale - this was refreshing, light and still flavorful. A good summer beer *Cold Nitro Brew Coffee - this was excellent! Cool and smooth without being overly bitter. I didn't miss the normal cream I put in my coffee nor sugar (unless they brew it with sugar...) *Neutella keg party - I had to try the beer based on its name alone. I did not like it at all - they added some sweetness to an otherwise bitter base beer and it ended up tasting like cough syrup to me I'd love to see some more non IPA offerings on draft!

Unacceptable behavior and service by DJ the general manager. Called my friend slurs and kicked us out. Do not recommend this place at all, and the beer was subpar at best.

Solace is one of our favorite breweries to visit. They are always busy but it doesn't stop the staff from being amazing and outgoing. I am NOT a beer person but their beer is great- love the Lucy Juicy and Beach Bod and always come home with full growlers. The food trucks they have are always great and we really enjoy our visits and usually bring/recruit friends to come. Definitely a must-stop. I am a proud owner of their merch and I have to say I usually do not advertise places but their long sleeve tee shirt is one of my favorite, most comfortable shirts and their Ugly Christmas Sweater sweatshirts won my wife and I party awards while keeping us warm, stylish and comfy. We also love St. Paddy's Day here because of the green beer and beads. Good beer, food fun atmosphere and nice clothes- can't ask for more!

A pleasant surprise! They had a really great selection and diverse selection of beers. Like so many local breweries Solace is located in an office park so the space itself is quite cavernous (I tend to prefer my beer-consuming un more intimate spaces)
