Great little hidden hangout in the land of Ashburn's finest office buildings and data centers. It's a perfect spot for grabbing an adult soda pop after a long day of work. I highly recommend the rye porter for those who like dark beers because it is incredibly tasty.

Update: Now they do their own food, have wine and limited drinks. Still family owned and community focused. Don't expect a good social media presence.

Old ox is a staple for bikers (cyclists) on the W&OD trail. Great location. Good beer. And they usually have food trucks of various kinds. The servers are on the spot and generous in allowing a taste or two! The ambiance is casual though a little industrial parky..

Really Really enjoyed my Sunday afternoon here. Met a buddy for a few beers, he suggested the Black Ox with nitro added. Wow, great suggestion, really good beer. Pretty decent menu, the usual "pub fair", I had a large pretzel that was good. Place is really big, so you can spread out, the backroom had a cornhole tourney going on. If you look at the website, seems a lot of good events to get involved with. Hope to return soon. If you ride a bicycle, it's right on the W&OD trail, easy off, have a few brews, get back on.

Have always liked Old Ox for their beers, particularly their hatch chili beer and keg nog. I've also liked their special events and pairing flights (e.g., smore's and stouts). They have recently started a Scratch Kitchen at this location, it shows promise.

Landed on this spot for another weekend brewery trip. I was sort of familiar with their beer since I've had it around at other places in NOVA. There wasn't too much parking but luckily it wasn't too busy and we found some on the side of the building. We grabbed the I Am Brut, the Pinch Me Peach, Kristin's Passion (Porter), and the Funky Face Tropical Sour. Kristin's Passion and Funky Face were our favorites. Kristin's Passion really had a distinct chocolate taste but also had a kick. The Funky Face was really fruity but also very sour (obviously). They also had a food truck this day (Momo's and More) which was also pretty solid. They have rotating food trucks that they post on Insta (I think). It also seems like they can hold parties as well based on the party we saw in the room behind the bar. Pretty solid brewery overall, I wouldn't mine coming back when I'm in the Ashburn area looking for a beer.

I was excited to see a brewery so close to my hotel!! In the area on business and had to come here to try it out! Much like many other breweries in the US this can found in a commercial/industrial area that's been turned into an epic brewery destination. I noticed on one side there is a bicycle trail that ends at the brewery. Who doesn't want a cold beer after a bike ride? If you're at least 21 anyway. I liked the service I for from the beer tenders also. Knowledgeable and friendly. I sampled six beers and really enjoyed their nitro stout. I also learned they have rotating food trucks and on Tuesdays this pizza truck comes in that was straight fire!!! Also it was a brick oven pizza truck so literally fire !! Great experience for me and I'll be sure to visit again
