Jack Brown's Beer & Burger Joint - Harrisonburg

Jack Browns is the childhood dream of two best friends, Aaron Ludwig and Mike Sabin… They met each other at 12, formed an immediate bond over of skateboarding, skiing and beer; they’ve been inseparable ever since. The idea was the product of afternoons spent skateboarding around Alexandria and polishing their beer can collections; the realization of it was slightly more difficult, and was to come after many years and much more experience. During high school Mike’s family relocated to Hawaii, Aaron remained in Virginia, and although it was the end of their days living down the street from each other, they kept in constant contact – they still spend more time talking to each other than to anyone else. Their friendship and professions eventually brought them back to the joint, but by a very unconventional route. “It’s probably time to start the bar” came on a phone conversation after a particularly frustrating day at work for both; a few months later Aaron found the spot, Mike got on a plane, the beer can collections were dusted off and Jack Browns was on its way.
