Nelson County, VA
Not the most ideal weather but still an okay attendance for the Virginia Craft Brewers Festival this past Saturday afternoon on the grounds at Devils Backbone Brewing. Over a half inch of rain fell throughout the afternoon, but that didn’t stop the taps from being pulled. Lots of different breweries from across Virginia converged in Nelson to participate.

The 2012 Virginia Craft Brewers Festival is designed to bring together all qualified and interested Virginia Craft Breweries as an opportunity to promote the Virginia Craft Brewing Industry and the Virginia Craft Brewers Guild.
The event featured the Virginia Craft Beer Cup competition in 5 Categories with the cup being awarded to the best overall brewery.
In addition to plenty of craft beer on hand, several live bands played throughout the day.
Several other outdoor events including cycling competitions will take place over the weekend into Monday on the grounds at Devils Backbone Brewing.
