The barbeque is a basecamp specialty and, for the record, has earned this Southern girl’s stamp of approval. And delicious! The food alone is worth the drive out. The result is a meal that’s both comforting and trend-setting. There, Chef Frank Debons has created a menu that leans toward traditional brewery fare in the best way possible-built around the beer and local ingredients. We launched our girls’-getaway weekend with lunch in the brewpub, an excellent way to kick-off a fun trip catching up with friends. And on a recent trip to the basecamp, we did just that. Though Devils Backbone provides excellent WiFi, it’s easy to unplug and simply enjoy the experience. It’s clear you’re meant to relax and stay a while. There’s good food, good beer, outdoor adventure, and plenty of places to hang out with friends, old and new. “Folks are talking to each other, introducing each other, kids are running around,” Heidi says of the outcome.Įverything about the basecamp and brewery exudes hospitality and engagement. Steve chose the location to be a nexus for outdoor adventure, and Heidi wanted everyone to feel welcome-to provide a place where people could gather, unplug, and have fun. Steve and Heidi Crandall started the brewery in 2008. Just down the road there’s a trailhead for the Appalachian Trail, and, up the mountain, sprawls Wintergreen Resort, the state’s largest ski area. The Devils Backbone Brewery, and its basecamp brewpub and meadow, sits on 100 acres amid the Blue Ridge Mountains near Wintergreen, Virginia. It offers everything a good road-trip should-stunning views, back roads that are easily drivable, and tiny hamlets with the occasional interesting, funky shop.
