The brewery edition of our NoVA Wars competition made its triumphant return in August. After five rounds of voting, the results are in. Eavesdrop Brewery has been crowned the 2025 NoVA Wars: Brewery winner.
In the final round of voting, the Manassas brewery battled against Vint Hill’s Old Bust Head Brewing Company before taking home the title. Eavesdrop also defeated Old 690 Brewing Company in Purcellville, Aslin Beer Company in Alexandria and Herndon, The Farm Brewery at Broad Run, and Solace Brewing Company in Sterling during earlier rounds of the competition.
Eavesdrop Brewery has become a staple in the NoVA community since it opened in 2018. Located in the historic Yorkshire neighborhood of Manassas, it offers a “destination brewery vibe” without having to leave the heart of NoVA. Its indoor tap room and outdoor seating area make for a great place to visit no matter the season. The brewery also hosts a handful of weekly events like cornhole tournaments, goat yoga, and live music, to ensure your trip to the brewery is a memorable one.
The next time you find yourself at Eavesdrop Brewery, consider ordering the Manassas Haze, one of the most popular drinks on the menu. There are also a handful of new releases to look forward to.
“We have a packed lineup of beers coming this fall,” says the staff at Eavesdrop Brewery. “Our Oktoberfest Märzen drops next week, a classic we look forward to every year. Later this month we are releasing All Slaps, a Capitals-themed rice lager, that we had a lot of fun putting together, and with Caps stars stopping by Eavesdrop for autograph signings, it feels like the perfect fit.
“In the coming weeks we are rolling out another collab with 450 North Brewing, one of the top sour breweries in the country, with a smoothie sour we are calling Slushy Lite – Birdmane. You can also expect hazys, stouts, and seasonals rolling out all throughout the fall, along with our award-winning beers like Chandelier and a Dollar Menu, our American Light Lager, and Arcane Rambler, our Black IPA, regularly on tap.”
Beer aficionados can also sample brews from Eavesdrop and other local breweries at Taste of NoVA on October 11 and 12.
Eavesdrop Brewery is open from noon to 9:30 p.m. on Monday through Thursday, noon to 10 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, and noon to 8 p.m. on Sunday. 7223 Centreville Rd., Manassas
