Second Place: Mekong Restaurant
Third Place: Commercial Taphouse & Grill
With a beer menu thicker than most 'zines, Capital Ale House proves its intentions to offer one of the broadest beer selections in Virginia. Customers can choose by region, style, alcohol content, flavor profile, tasting notes or price, and they'll get help from a beer-savvy staff if the choices are overwhelming. At Mekong, An Bui's enthusiasm for beer is well known in Richmond, and his choices pair well with the restaurant's beloved Vietnamese food. Commercial Taphouse in the Fan is another longtime local favorite for its familiar atmosphere and well-picked selection of the world's best brews.
