Tucher Bräu Lager Hell/Helles paired with Milky Way
Lager – Helles / 5.2% ABV / 156 CAL / Fürth, Bayern /
The term lager developed at the end of the 14th century with the introduction of bottom-fermented brewing. Wooden barrels were used for storage in cool cellars. Our Nuremberg Lager Hell is matured in oak barrels

Brouwerij De Halve Maan Straffe Hendrik Brugs Quadrupel Bier 11° paired with Milk Duds
Belgian Quadrupel / 11% ABV / 35 IBU / 330 CAL / Bruges, Vlaanderen /
Straffe Hendrik Quadrupel, launched in 2010, is an intense beer, dark in colour and full in taste. The aroma is elegant, spicy and slightly roasted. The sophisticated blend of special kinds of malt give the beer a complex character, combining a delicate dryness with hints of coriander, dark fruits, anise and roasted chestnuts. The palate finishes in a syrupy taste. The refermentation in the bottle creates a living beer that will evolve over the years. Straffe Hendrik Quadrupel finds an excellent partner in chocolate when it comes to foodpairing.
Brouwerij De Halve Maan Straffe Hendrik Brugs Tripel Bier 9° paired with KitKat
Belgian Tripel / 9% ABV / 35 IBU / 270 CAL / Bruges, Vlaanderen /
Straffe Hendrik is a Bitter Tripel Ale of 9% abv. The beer was originally from Bruges and brewed in Bruges by brewery De Halve Maan. In 1981, Henri Maes and his daughter Véronique followed the demand of the mayor and created a strong blond beer for the inauguration of the statue of Sint-Arnoldus, the saint of all beer-brewers. However, the beer became so popular, that the demand for the beer continued. It was given the name of Straffe Hendrik (Strong Hendrick), since it was a rich and strong beer. Today, Straffe Hendrik is the last authentic Tripel Ale of Bruges.
Alewerks Oktoberfest paired with Twix
Märzen / 5.6% ABV / 168 CAL / Williamsburg, VA /

Two Roads Two Juicy paired with Skittles
IPA – Imperial / 8.2% ABV / 42 IBU / 246 CAL / Stratford, CT /
Two Juicy is an unfiltered, cloudy “New England style Double IPA” that uses generous amounts of Hallertauer Blanc, Citra & Mandarina Bavaria hops. The result is a “juicy”, fully-charged DIPA with notes of grapefruit, pine, lychee, orange & tangerine against a soft malt backdrop.
Flying Dog Snake Dog IPA paired with Snickers
IPA – American / 7.1% ABV / 60 IBU / 213 CAL / Utica, NY /
A potent snakebite of Citra, Mosaic, Warrior, Simcoe, and Columbus hops (more than 2lbs per barrel) gives this beer its citrus-forward superpower. Orange and tropical fruit aromas temper slightly-piney crispness, turning Snake Dog into a more complex breed of West Coast IPA. You’ll find Snake Dog bites hardest when paired with peppery cheeses, curries, and mild Thai dishes whose names you can’t pronounce properly.
Tröegs Independent LolliHop Dry-Hopped Double IPA paired with Skittles
IPA – Imperial / 8.2% ABV / 246 CAL / Hershey, PA /
We Taste: pear, citrus, hint of Melon. When we make our annual pilgrimage to the hop-growing hotbed of Yakima Valley, we’re like kids in a candy store. We eyeball the hops on the lines, crush them in our hands and rub them til their oil fill the air. LolliHop brings together three of our favorites. Dry-hopping with Citra and Mosaic layers in notes of orange, grapefruit, and melon, while Azacca in the kettle adds hints of papaya and pineapple. Locally harvested rustic pale malt provides the backbone, and wheat and oats make this beer silky smooth with a touch of haze.
Tröegs Independent Perpetual IPA paired with Snickers
IPA – American / 7.5% ABV / 85 IBU / 225 CAL / Hershey, PA /
In our constant evolution as a brewery, we’ve developed on undying drive to meld the organic and the mechanical. Perpetual IPA utilizes our hopback and dry-hopping to engineer a bold Imperial Pale Ale. Perpetual IPA is 7.5% ABV and 85 IBUs. It features Bravo, Chinook and Mt. Hood hops in the boil, Mt. Hood and Nugget hops in the hopback and Citra, Cascade and Nugget hops in dry-hopping.
Old Bust Head Caramel Macchiato Stout paired with Twix
Stout – Oatmeal / 5.8% ABV / 32 IBU / 174 CAL / Vint Hill, VA /
Using our Oatmeal Stout as a base, and locally roasted coffee from Cafe Kreyol, our Caramel Macchiato Stout has the rich aroma a flavored iced coffee. Vanilla extract, and natural sugar combine with the roasted malts to lend a subtle caramel sweetness for a brew that is refreshing in the summer and decadent in the winter!
Old Bust Head Vixen paired with Starburst
Red Ale – Irish / 5.3% ABV / 23 IBU / 159 CAL / Vint Hill, VA /
Our deep amber Vixen Irish Red, has a luster as rich as the thick-coated red fox that roams the local wood. Medium bodied, with a clean finish, Vixen draws you in with a sweet carmel allure up front and gives chase with hints of roasted malt through the taste. A tea-like soft bitterness on the backend is so pleasing, you just may find you’re reaching for another glass of this wily brew.
Old Ox Golden Ox paired with Reese’s
Golden Ale – Other / 5.9% ABV / 18 IBU / 177 CAL / Ashburn, VA /
Our Golden Ale is worth getting to know. Balanced, easygoing and smooth all year long. What more could you want in a drinking companion? Don’t overthink it. Just drink it! Cheers!
Old Ox Black Ox paired with M&Ms
Porter – Other / 6% ABV / 20 IBU / 180 CAL / Ashburn, VA /
A robust rye porter with hints of coffee and chocolate nicely balanced with a subtle hop influence. A substantial, malty ale, complex and flavorful with a medium body and a slightly roasty finish. The rich dark color is deceptively refreshing. The spice in the rye clears the palate. A sip will explain why we say this is a delightful combination of sweet and spicy!
Lost Barrel Tangelo Hard Seltzer paired with Skittles
Hard Seltzer / 5% ABV / 150 CAL / Middleburg, VA / 90 calories – natural flavors – no added sugars
Dogfish Head Citrus Squall paired with Almondjoy
Golden Ale – Other / 8% ABV / 10 IBU / 240 CAL / Milton, DE /
Offici-ALE Weather Report: There’s a Citrus Squall moving in! National weather reports confirm there’s a squall (of the delicious kind!) brewing and it’s set to touch down in cities from coast to coast. Our best advice? Grab your ponchos … er, pint glasses and get ready! We’re proud to introduce Citrus Squall … the perfect storm of a double golden ale and a paloma cocktail brewed with grapefruit juice, blue agave nectar, lime peels and a touch of sea salt. At 8.0% ABV, Citrus Squall brings strong gusts of citrusy hop and grapefruit aromas, counterbalanced by a downpouring of bright and tart grapefruit flavor and a blue agave nectar sweetness. Starting on the East Coast, Citrus Squall will quickly billow out and roll its way to taps and shelves across the nation both on draft and in 6pk/12oz cans, expected to hit ground in early spring. Ahead of its arrival, Dogfish suggests the following preparation plan.
