The Starr Hill Brewery was established in 1999 in the town of Charlottesville, Virginia, and takes its name from the neighborhood where it was originally located. In 2005, the brewery moved to nearby Crozet, Virginia.[1]

Starr Hill's beers can be found throughout the mid-Atlantic and southeast United States. The brewery has won several awards for its beer, in particular the Dark Starr Stout which is the most decorated stout in the American craft brewing scene[2]

In 2008, Starr Hill signed a distribution deal with Anheuser Busch.[3]

Along with South Street Brewery, Blue Mountain Brewery and Devils Backbone Brewing Company, Starr Hill forms the Brew Ridge Trail.[4]
