Pen  Druid Brewing is the three brothers Lain, Van and Jennings Carney who are in the psych-rock band Pontiak. They've spent nearly a decade traveling North America and Europe, touring and drinking beer. They've released 10 albums on the legendary Chicago independent record label Thrill Jockey Records. In between tours they would brew beer at home combining the tastes and smells they picked up on the road. It was an amazing education to taste traditional and new beers all over the world and they wanted to bring those experiences home and put them to use.

Quièvremont Wine is a boutique farm-vineyard in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, specializing in estate-grown and -cellared Bordeaux varietals and blends. The Quièvremont vineyard is the latest addition to Reality Farm which was established circa 1753. The wine's name derives from old French meaning "goat hill", and is appropriate to the vineyard's setting amidst the farm's cattle and goat herds. The vines enjoy an ideal micro-climate, with plenty of sunshine, gentle breezes and fine soils, producing grapes that yield memorable wines with unique characteristics.

Recognizing the promise in Virginia wines, we moved our family's winery from California to the Blue Ridge Mountains in the heart of Virginia's hunt country, in Rappahannock County. Here in Virginia we continue to create rich and elegant wines dedicated to the winegrower's art. Open daily year-round since 2001, we have established ourselves as a leader at the forefront of the Virginia wine industry. Our experienced wine-making team, coupled with careful tending of the vineyard and exacting knowledge of the cellar, is producing exquisite, internationally recognized wines.

Dating from the mid-18th century, Toll Gate Farm derives its name from a toll station along the old Richmond Road (now Ben Venue Road). The oldest part is the log cabin that is visible today. It was the kitchen cabin dating to 1750. The original main cabin burned down and was replaced with a log/stone house before a Maryland family bought the property in 1807. In the mid-1970s, the two cabins were connected by an addition, forming the house that stands today.
Toll Gate Farm has witnessed its share of history. General Robert E. Lee and his Confederate troops withdrew from Gettysburg along Richmond Road. And Toll Gate Farm was a popular stop as a speakeasy during prohibition when corn was more profitable as moonshine than as cattle or human food.
Finally, it became part of Virginia’s burgeoning wine industry in 2000 when Bill Freitag and Patty Hardee acquired the farm and planted their first grapes. We now have a total of six acres in vines. We grow four varieties of vinifera grapes: Viognier, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, and Pinot Grigio. We supply high quality wine grapes to many of the wineries in northern Virginia.
