Factory Street Brewing Company is housed in the historic Liggett & Myers tobacco prizery building in the heart of downtown South Boston, Virginia. Jeff and Lisa Francisco, bought the building in 2019 and had the idea of rehabbing the vacant building into a central gathering spot in the community. Restoring the century-old building back to the original brick and oversized timbers was a labor of love and a family affair. From sandblasting, to sealing window sashes, to welding railings, this family worked tirelessly for 3 years to complete the renovation on the building.

Jeff and Lisa knew that they needed to bring a brewer to Factory Street who had extensive brewing knowledge and a deep love of craft beer. They quickly discovered they already had their dream brewer on their team, their insurance agent, Brigid Layman. The three friends partnered together to make Factory Street Brewing a reality. The doors opened on May 8, 2021, and since that day Factory Street Brewing Company has delighted locals and visitors from near and far. Brigid Layman is the head brewer and she creates a rotating menu of crowd-pleasing favorites. Her true-to-form brews pay homage to the history of the community, in the names “Boyd’s Ferry Oatmeal Stout” and “1781 English Brown Ale.” Two tap handles rotate with seasonal varieties and experimental brews.
