    Stable Craft Brewing at Hermitage Hill traces its roots to Hermitage Hill Farm and Stables, founded in 2006 as an operational horse farm where Tennessee Walkers were bred and trained on a property built around a 288-foot barn. The founders transformed the farm into an event venue for weddings, receptions, private parties, and corporate gatherings, and played a role in the Virginia legislation that helped establish agritourism in the state, all while preserving the rural landscape of the Shenandoah Valley. The historic barn has since been renovated into a reception venue that blends rustic architecture -- hand-hewn beams and timber crafted with local artisans -- with heating, air conditioning, and a professional sound system. The property has grown into a destination brewery and cidery alongside its wedding and event business, adding on-site guest suites, a taproom, and an agri-pub style restaurant. Private event spaces include the Saddleback Ballroom, which seats up to 200 guests for weddings and receptions; the climate-controlled Cider House, for gatherings up to 70; and the Brewers Club, an intimate space for parties up to 32. Stable Craft Brewing at Hermitage Hill has been named Brewery of the Year by the Virginia Restaurant, Lodging, and Travel Association and Best Outdoor Dining Venue by Virginia Living.
