“There’s something to be said for a simple, well-made beer. Don’t get us wrong. We like to go fancy as much as the next person. (Our collection of barrel-aged beers should tell you that.) And often we’re, like, “Coconut, ginger, pineapples, and licorice!?! Sign me up!” But sometimes you want to brush off your old Reinheitsgebot and head back to the basics. Parkway Brewing in Salem, VA knows what we’re talking about …”
