About Us

---

Marianne and Matt first began planning to open their own brewery back in 2013. As craft beer enthusiasts and homebrewers, they always dreamed of creating a place where good people could come together, enjoy craft beer and create great moments. A brewery like that would be a way for them to connect their family and work lives with a shared passion. But as it often does, life had other plans. Kids, careers, and other priorities took center stage.

Fast forward 11 years, and by chance, Marianne and Matt found themselves in Purcellville, Virginia, thirsty, a bit hungry, and with an hour to spare. They wandered around the back of The Shoppes at Main and Maple, which was home to a micro-brewery with a cool vibe and a tight-knit local community. Seated on a cozy couch in the front lounge, they looked around and thought, “If we ever open our brewery, it should have this kind of local charm.”

Two days later, while revisiting the idea of starting their own brewery, they discovered that one was for sale nearby. It just happened to be the same one they had visited days earlier. The same one you’re looking at right now.

… and as they say, the rest is history.

Eleven Eleven means different things to different people, but at its core, it’s a universal symbol for things coming together at the right moment. Call it synchronicity, fate, or intention meeting opportunity. To us, it’s simply Eleven Eleven or 11:11.

It also carries a special secondary meaning for us — a tribute to our Veterans, a community close to our hearts, as Veterans Day is celebrated on 11/11.
