Our New Brewery, Taproom And HQ In Norfolk
Want the details on our flagship brewery and taproom in the great military and veteran town of Norfolk, Virginia? Here you go:
Now open and brewing our great American beer, our flagship brewery has a 22,000 barrel brewhouse – enough to service much of the Eastern Seaboard. It’s expandable to 30,000 barrels which would put us close to brewing 500,000 cases of beer per year. It has a 7 barrel tank for us to make limited edition and specialty beers – including some just for our shareholder family. It has a canning line, which allows us to can, label and package millions of cans of Armed Forces Brewing Company beer per year.
Our flagship facility has a 380 person, multi-level tap room with 32 taps, a performance stage and an outdoor beer garden with 12 more taps and a capctity of 120 people. It’s a great space for our military and Veteran community and others to hold events, parties and meetings, or to just stop by and drink some great American beer with other patriotic Americans.
Norfolk is part of the Hampton Roads, Virginia area – home to America’s largest naval base, the North American headquarters for NATO and a Naval Special Warfare Group with several Navy SEAL teams. It’s also home to the U.S.S. Wisconsin.
USA Today called Norfolk one of America’s Top 10 booming downtowns. It has the largest active military population in the United States with more than 96,000 active duty personnel representing all branches of the U.S. Military and 112,000 of their family members.

INTRODUCTION
America Deserves Great Beer
Armed Forces Brewing Company is a Military tribute craft brewing company that pays homage to our great American Military – both active duty and Veterans.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH MY MONEY?
Building Our Company Together
We used investments from thousands of patriotic Americans to grow our brand, increase distribution into more states and… as we promised… to acquire our own brewing facility. We will continue to use every dollar invested to brew great beer and grow our brand, sales and distribution. We plan to continue building a team to scale Armed Forces Brewing Company across the country, and eventually internationally as well.
This round we plan to use the new capital to expand into more states, increase distribution within the states we are already in, introduce new beers to our lineup, and open our first taproom outside of our flagship facility in Norfolk.
WHAT DO I GET FOR MY MONEY?
Real Stock and Some Killer Perks!

In addition to owning equity in our company, at the end of the stock offering we will give you special “perks” depending on the amount you invest.
