I have eaten and enjoyed fine malt beverages at Tuskies for a number of years. My grandfather used to own the business right across the street. I was always impressed with the selection of beers on tap and the food that is consistently good. As I grew older and more adept in the kitchen, the food impressed me less, but the beer never let me down. If you happen to be in Leesburg, you can hit the trifecta in one fell swoop. Have a beer at Tuskies, go next door to Fireworks (same owners) for something different, then head across the street to the Hamburg Doener for a good selection of German beers.

I was able to visit Tuscarora for dinner with my wife while visiting family in the area. Where I live (Milwaukee), most places with large craft/import beer selections are beer bars, and with limited food choices. This was unique in that it offered fine dining and an extensive selection of beer. It is in an old mill turned shopping center and the bar is wood-trimmed and dim with lots of oil lamps and other kitsch. The dining room in back (where we ate) was lit by large windows and seemed a bit...temporary. Service was OK - I didn’t feel that for the cost of the food we were attended to as fastidiously as I expected. Beer selection was very good, and things tasted as they should. I had a Red Seal Ale and a Victory Hop Wallop. Food was good. My wife and I both had corn chowder and she had the spinach ravioli while I opted for the duck. Both main courses were very good. I liked the combo of fine-dining and beer this place possessed, and it definitely takes beer seriously, judging from the beer events they host. I thought it a bit over-priced, but I’d go back.

Went to Tuskies for a Clipper City dinner with Lucy Saunders. Had a beer at the bar beforehand. Beer selection offers a wide range of beers, including some uncommon choices. Bar area was busy but service was attentive and cheerful. The food served at the dinner was not off of the normal menu, but I think gives a fair indication of the quality. Food was well-done, and service was excellent. I will make a point of going back again.

Went to a bluegrass show this weekend in Lucketts and stopped in for dinner. This place was great. The food was goumet and the Belgium beer selection was good. Dieirium Tremens in its own little pink elephant glass. They have a web site. A nice surprise.
