Brewmasters Aaron Ludwig and John Hilkert make the perfect complementary pair at Tin Cannon Brewing Company in Gainesville, a town not far from The Courts at Historic Manassas. Whereas Ludwig likes to brew more traditional beers, Hilkert shines when he's experimenting with offbeat brews. Together, they create a wide spectrum of suds ranging from classic to creative.
The more traditional beers include the Virginia Blonde Ale, the Busted Pipe Black IPA, and the Unkel Dunkel Dunkelweizen brew. Some of the more outlandish recipes are ever-present on tap at Tin Cannon, too, like the Vaughn's PB, a chocolaty porter laced with hints of peanut butter. Then there are also seasonal brews and strictly experimental beers that—don't be surprised to come across an amber ale infused with bacon and chipotle peppers (called the Breakfast of Champions) or other unexpected combinations.
