As the Stark family from Game Of Thrones will tell you, winter is coming. And what better way is there to celebrate the coming of colder temperatures than with a nice tall glass of craft beer? Answer: an issue of RVA Magazine dedicated to the wonders of regional craft beer in Richmond and beyond!
As the Stark family from Game Of Thrones will tell you, winter is coming. And what better way is there to celebrate the coming of colder temperatures than with a nice tall glass of craft beer? Answer: an issue of RVA Magazine dedicated to the wonders of regional craft beer in Richmond and beyond! It’s true–we’ve put our heads together and come up with our best special issue yet. From an article documenting the history of brewing and consuming beer in the river city to a rundown of all the best local craft breweries, we’re digging deep to bring you the unique local culture surrounding everyone’s favorite amber liquid! We’ll also be featuring a talk with charitable graphic design organization Screens n’ Suds, and a fashion spread mixing the best local beers with Richmond’s most epic beards. Oh yes, we’re 100% serious.
But if beer’s not your bag, no worries! We’ve also got a double dose of the unique art, music, and cultural content you turn to RVA Magazine for year after year. From a look at the work of graphic novelist and illustrator Bizhan Khodabandeh to the paintings of Toobz Muir, we’re dipping into every facet of the central Virginia art scene. And our interviews with RVA hardcore veterans Down To Nothing, hip hop artist Swordplay, and up-and-coming alt-country/blues-rockers The Southern Belles show that our musical coverage continues to be second to none. And of course, there’s lots more waiting for you inside this issue as well!
RVA Magazine continues to strive to bring this amazingly creative city the kind of in-depth journalistic coverage it deserves; from music and art to fashion and film, Richmond is a city whose constant hum of activity belies its relatively modest size. The rich culture and history of craft brewing is just one of many great aspects about living here in RVA, and our new issue will serve as a powerful reminder of what a great city Richmond truly is.
Issues of our magazine can always be read in digital form online, and are also available as a free download. Click here to check out the online version. Our magazines will be showing up at our 100+ distribution points around the city over the next couple of days–scroll down for a complete list, and check our twitter and facebook pages for updates on dropoffs!
