Charleston is West Virginia’s hottest destination for craft beer lovers

2/22/2023

Streaked with vast stretches of the Appalachians, West Virginia has earned abundant acclaim for its ample natural beauty, with no shortage of spectacular preserves to explore across the state. Top-tier hiking destinations range from New River Gorge National Park to Harpers Ferry National Historical Park, while roaring waterfalls and rushing rivers can be found all across the region—and water isn’t the only thing that flows freely across West Virginia.

From the heart of Morgantown to the Ohio-Big Sandy confluence, West Virginia’s craft beer scene has been booming for years, with the state capital of Charleston serving as one of the top destinations for craft brewery crawls. Home to just under 50,000 people in 2020, this riverside city is one of the smallest state capitals in all of the U.S., but in spite of its small size, there’s a surprisingly large array of breweries and bars to explore along the Kanawha River.
