The Board Room

A relaxing brewery in Arlington, Virginia with a taproom and generous spacing sitting that offers some good beers of various styles on draft and board games to pass the time.

 

I have been to the board room maybe a dozen times since it has opened two years ago.

The space is large with a main bar at the entrance and smaller side bar at one end. Lots of seats inside and outside with fire pits. Lots of tvs as well for pretty much any sporting event. And of course lots of games to play with a rental fee.

The service is fantastic. The manager Jaimie excels at what he does while the bartenders like Justin and servers are excellent.

Originally the food kinda sucked but since that time, it has gotten much better. Burger and wings are solid.

Now for a review of their beers. Similar to the food, they started out average, not bad but not good either. After a year of brewing things have turned around. The most recent menu had a hazy ipa and a peach sour. Both of those were above average in my opinion all things considered. Were they treehouse or side project, no but they were approachable and enjoyable which is more than can be said for a lot of the beers on the market. In addition to their 12 internal taps, they carried maybe another 12 macro and micro bottles and drafts from bud light to Hardywood Gingerbread Stout. Lots of choices, local and then some.

It’s a fun place to watch a game or just drink beer and play monopoly.
