Our Story
Joker Brewing is the first brewer of hard kombucha in Virginia. However, we are not new to brewing, as well as making kombucha for King of Clubs Coffee for over two years, we have a family connection to brewing through our founder’s 3rd great grandfather. Thomas Helliwell Snr. opened a brewery and distillery in Don Mills, about halfway up Toronto’s beautiful Don Valley, almost 200 years ago. When he started in 1821, he was probably having some of the same experimental fun we are having in 2020.
Maybe brewing is a genetic thing, but we have always been curious about what new flavor might be just around the corner. We’ll never stop exploring, and we hope you will join us on our journey.
Come down to our taproom in Williamsburg, try what we have on the pumps, and then get yourself a growler of something delicious and unique in Virginia.
