The creation of Warriors Taphouse began in 2015 when three passionate home brewers, Dave Culler, Mike Herron and Tony Bird, decided to leverage their love of craft beer in order to support and give back to local organizations that support our nation's fallen, combat wounded veterans and their remarkable families. This is the mission of Warriors Taphouse, as well serving the highest quality craft beer and hand crafted food available in Virginia Beach. Culler is a retired naval aviator, who had commanded an (F/A-18) Squadron VFA-136 at nearby Oceana Naval Air Station, and was the Commanding Officer of Naval Station Norfolk. Herron's son is a former Marine currently on active duty in the United States Army, and Bird is a former UDT/Seal.  All three men's fathers served in the military and are proudly displayed in the Taphouse.  Warriors Taphouse will continue to honor the legacy of all military members and their families.
