County leaders adopted new zoning rules that expand the areas where these craft producers may do business, allowing them in selected industrial, commercial and planned development districts.
…
[Craft Breweries are] permitted in select commercial and planned districts for the first time, such as Lorton and Reston. Brewers in these districts are subject to lower production limits however: no more than 5,000 barrels of beer, or 5,000 gallons of distilled spirits, wine, cider or mead per year.

The new regulations also allow craft producers to locate “by right” in the I-4 (Medium Intensity Industrial) Zoning District. Until now, brewers and distillers have needed a special exception to open in this zoning district.
