Willie Williams
First take some homegrown vocals drenched in Carolina twang and Memphis soul. Then add a healthy dose of blues and bluegrass influenced guitar. Now finish it off with top notch showmanship and storytelling, and you'll begin to get an idea of what Willie Williams is all about. With influences that range from Merle Haggard to Al Green, Willie’s music is as familiar as it is fresh. An accomplished multi-instrumentalist, vocalist and songwriter, Willie is currently touring with Great Southern Reunion presented by Dickey Betts, where he shares the guitar duties with the legendary Lee Roy Parnell. When not on the road, Willie is a fixture of the Richmond, VA music scene where his current projects include Solo Acoustic performances and Allman Brothers Tribute band SKYDOG. Willie also plays guitar with Virginia music icon Steve Bassett from time to time.
Irish Red Ale Beer Release
Hardywood Irish Red Release (5.4% ABV)
Hardywood Irish Red is a malt-forward well-balanced red ale. Fantastically sweet malt and caramel aromatics greet a smooth roundness and body in the finish. Amber with a ruby hue, this is a great way to enjoy your weekend!
Come grab a pour or a four pack at either taproom!

Black is Beautiful IPA Beer Release
Hardywood's Black is Beautiful is a dry-hopped lager, initiated by Sterling Stokes, the RVA Beermeister. Sterling played a pivotal role in bringing this project to life, introducing us to Alisa Bowens from Rhythm Brewing out of Connecticut and LaTonia Cokely at Ajourn Tea House in Baltimore. This unique brew is fermented cold and is dry hopped on Nelson Sauvin, Motueka, and Cashmere hops to provide ripe peach, honeydew, and tangerine aromatic notes. Infused with Ajourn’s signature Free Will tea blend, top notes of strawberry and subtle black tea intermingle spectacularly with the hop profile. Alisa, known for her exceptional lagers, and Latonia, with her exquisite teas, have significantly influenced the character of this beer. The striking label, designed by Richmond artist Ron Stokes, enhances the visual appeal and tells the story of our collective effort. This collaboration embodies our commitment to our community and our commitment to crafting beer that brings all people together. Enjoy!

Rooted in blues tradition, Sammy Lee has a soul that wails. Cadence-driven, acoustically inclined, Motown folk is showcased in his pristine and energetic performances, with stylistic nods towards the cities that have provided him with his unique sound.
