Richmond, VA Trip 10/7

My friend and I are heading to Richmond on 10/7.

We're looking for a place to stay if anyone has an extra room in exchange for beer (trying to keep costs down for housing/travel).

Also looking for suggestions on food/drinks, sightseeing/activities, and anything else we need to check-out.
We're renting a car and plan to head up the coast to our final destination in NY.

If you know anyone along the way that may also have a spare Bedroom, we'd show our appreciation for the hospitality.

We have plenty of SARA, Russian River, Rare Barrel, Alvarado Street, MOONRAKER, Lost Abbey, Alesmith, Bruery, Bottle Logic, Fifty Fifty, De Garde, etc.....happy to haul out.
