About
The Bucket Trade IS BEER! We have 16 taps featuring both international and national rotating taps by style and the best Virginia beers and hard cider. We have beer on draft by the glass, growler fills and 400 bottles and cans to choose from for here or to go. We also sell kegs to go and have wine by the bottle and glass. What does that name mean?? Before Prohibition and before bottles and cans became widespread, if you wanted beer outside of a bar it was put into a bucket. The buckets of beer were then taken to the thirsty by "bucket boys", usually carrying several on a pole. This process was called the "bucket trade". This eventually led to the "growler" which we know and love today.Details

Ended up at Buckettrade after nearby sushi place had an hour wait for food to satisfy a togo order versus diners. Great beer selection! Good light foods filled the sushi void. Very busy place, but fun. Worth many trips.
Great selection of craft beer on draft and in bottles & cans. On and off premise sales with great growler deals. Awesome sandwiches, and snacky stuff too. Mostly local and Virginia sourced.
Found this place by accident and it was a great find. All kinds of terrific microbrewery beers. Great prices, and you can make your own 6 pack, so trying a variety of brews is so easy.
