Capstan Bar Brewing Company is a small-scale craft microbrewery and taproom located in the City of Hampton, one of Virginia’s oldest cities and one with a strong nautical heritage. Capstan bars were stout poles of strong oak. They were used for leverage, particularly for operating a ship’s capstan, which was a simple machine used to haul up the ship’s anchor, and was operated manually by the ship’s crew during the age of sail. It had to be extremely strong in order to haul up the anchor, as did the members of the ship’s crew who pushed in unison to operate it. Thus, the capstan symbolizes strength, integrity, unity, and teamwork - the ethos of Capstan Bar Brewing Company (CBBC) and our team. CBBC creates outstanding handcrafted beers using the finest sourced ingredients in an efficient and sustainable manor blending old-world techniques with modern innovations in recipe development, bringing west coast-style and rotating artisanal handcrafted beers to the Hampton Roads Region of Virginia. CBBC honors the rich historical and nautical legacy of the City of Hampton by producing fine artisanal beers,.. CBBC is now open during our posted business hours! Cheers!!
