Taste The Local posted this declaration to their Facebook page this afternoon proclaiming the great abundance of local beer to be available in Richmond this year. Check it out:

By the end of 2013 there will be 30 VA Breweries available in the city of RICHMOND, VA (including festivals etc). At least 6 will be in the Richmond Metro Area (*). Whether you are a fan of all, or just some of these locals, not too many cities in the country can boast that kind of number. Cheers RVA! Its going to be a great year for local beer.
