The aroma is very balanced with a fruity, flowery background and an initial Chardonnay impression which evolves into a spicy, mild aroma of hops.

✪ Featured Breweries ✪

Aslin Esperante
Lager – Mexican / 4.5% ABV / 135 CAL / Alexandria, VA /
Here to improve the transition into your weekend is Esperante Mexican-style Lager. Slightly sweet, with notes of graham cracker, refreshing lemon-lime, & floral hints. A supreme pair with a slice of lime, & a meal straight off the grill.
Aslin VelociRabbit
IPA – American / 5.5% ABV / 165 CAL / Alexandria, VA /
The ancient ancestor of the modern day Kangaroo, a VelociRabbit was notorious for herding large amounts of Beach Chickens to their demise. This lower ABV IPA is the little brother of Laser Raptors. Using the same amounts of Mosaic, Simcoe and Chinook as Laser Raptors, this beer has a powerful berry aroma and nice pine note. The oats and wheat maintain the creamy mouthfeel that Laser Raptors is known for lending the lower ABV the ability to make a crispy break just as the hops surprise your palate.

Bayerische Staatsbrauerei Weihenstephan Weihenstephaner 1516
Kellerbier / 5.6% ABV / 25 IBU / 168 CAL / Freising, Bayern /
The first sip of this amber-orange-coloured Kellerbier reveals a touch of caramel. Its fresh and fruity aroma is owed to the chosen hops and accompanied by a pleasant bitterness. In combination with a well-balanced malt body this wonderfully mild and smooth beer was created to please both, your tongue and mind. The hops chosen are the rare sort “Hallertauer Record” for bittering and “Hallertauer Perle” as well as “Hallertauer Mittelfrüh” for aroma.

Bayerische Staatsbrauerei Weihenstephan Weihenstephaner Korbinian
Bock – Doppelbock / 7.4% ABV / 32 IBU / 222 CAL / Freising, Bayern /
Our Korbinian, the full-bodied, dark Doppelbock with light brown foam, wins beer-lovers over with a balance of fruity hints of plums and figs, a dark malt aroma – reminiscent of toffee, nuts and chocolate. Its roasted flavour goes well with smoked meat and fish as well as venison and poultry. Brewed according to our centuries-old brewing tradition on the Weihenstephan hill.

Brasserie Dupont Saison Dupont
Farmhouse Ale – Saison / 6.5% ABV / 30 IBU / 195 CAL / Tourpes, Wallonie /
Saison Dupont is a world classic beer and the yardstick for one of Belgium’s most important beer styles. It is the most admired AND imitated Saison in the world. A strong, vital yeast is key to full attenuation and thus to the style. Saison Dupont is straw colored with a dense creamy head. The nose is alive, like fresh raised bread, estery with citrus and spice notes. Full-bodied and malty, it sparkles on the palate and finishes with a zesty hop and citrus attack. Incredibly compatible with food!

Brasserie d’Achouffe Houblon Chouffe
IPA – Belgian / 9% ABV / 47 IBU / 270 CAL / Achouffe, Wallonie /
The gnomes of Fairyland may be little, but they have big, very big, personalities. HOUBLON CHOUFFE matches their impish spirits. All gnomes, with their innate good taste, are in full agreement about HOUBLON CHOUFFE, which is flavoured by three different types of hops. This India Pale Ale is appreciated for its pronounced bitterness combined with the fruity tones of traditional Achouffe beers: it softens the strongest of characters.

Brasserie d’Achouffe La Chouffe Blond
Belgian Strong Golden Ale / 8% ABV / 20 IBU / 240 CAL / Achouffe, Wallonie /
The gnomes of Fairyland are particularly fond of this golden beer. LA CHOUFFE, with its slight hoppy taste, combining notes of fresh coriander and fruity tones, is the drink which gives them their zest for life. At least, that’s what these imps say when they are thirsty. Their secret used to be jealously guarded from one generation to the next until the day they shared the recipe with humans to seal their friendship. Of all the legends from the wonderful region of the Belgian Ardennes, the tale of LA CHOUFFE is the one which most merits re-telling.

Brasserie d’Achouffe Mc Chouffe
Belgian Strong Dark Ale / 8% ABV / 20 IBU / 240 CAL / Achouffe, Wallonie /
Among the mythical characters living in Fairyland, some are more unusual than others. Malcolm, for example, is different because of his accent and his kilt: when it comes to beer, his favourite is Mc CHOUFFE. The delicious flavours of aniseed, liquorice and toffee tickle his taste buds. If you listen to him, he will boast of its ruby sparkle, its smooth bitterness and its strong character, worthy of his native Scotland. Although robust, Mc CHOUFFE goes down as easily as LA CHOUFFE.

Brouwerij Rodenbach Rodenbach Grand Cru
Sour – Flanders Red Ale / 6% ABV / 35 IBU / 180 CAL / Roeselare, Vlaanderen /
This is an aged Belgian red ale, which is ‘ripened quietly in oak barrels for two years’, according to the label. It has an extremely pungent aroma of rich grapey fruit, with acidic notes, very much like a slightly sour red wine or possibly a gueuze. In the mouth it is slightly sweet, extremely acidic and fruity, with grapes and even cherries discernible, and very lively. Despite the sweetness it is not at all cloying, even thin, with little or no trace of malt. Finish is sharp and fruity.

Delirium – Huyghe Deliria
Belgian Strong Golden Ale / 8.5% ABV / 32 IBU / 255 CAL / Melle, Vlaanderen /
Special beer brewed once a year to mark International Women’s Day.
Colour and appearance: a pale blonde colour and fine creamy-white head which clings to the glass.
Flavour: A pleasant sparkling carbonate content produces a soft, full taste perception. The aroma is very balanced with a fruity, flowery background and an initial Chardonnay impression which evolves into a spicy, mild aroma of hops.
Taste:Full-bodied and balanced with fruity tones of apple and Chardonnay grapes. Deliria has a fine, mild bitterness in its aftertaste and a splendid, round feel in the mouth which evolves well.

Delirium – Huyghe Delirium Nocturnum
Belgian Strong Dark Ale / 8.5% ABV / 24 IBU / 255 CAL / Melle, Vlaanderen /
Color and Sight: Dark Chocolate Brown with a compact foam, white-yellow, stable and creamy. Odor Touches of caramel, mocca and chocolate. Spices such as licorice and coriander are also present.
Taste: Initially a very pleasant sensation in the mouth of alcohol and softness. It is followed by a growing bitterness, which comes partly from hops, but also from roasted malt and chocolate malt.
Towards the end, pleasant balance between bitter, sour and sweet notes.

Erdinger Weissbräu Erdinger Dunkel
Wheat Beer – Dunkelweizen / 5.3% ABV / 14 IBU / 159 CAL / Erding, Bayern /
Selected dark malts with a fine roasted aroma make ERDINGER Dunkel a full-bodied enjoyment with a strong character. It fills the glass elegantly and shines in deep brown tones. The first sip delights with a harmonious harmony of selected dark wheat and barley malts with first-class Hallertau aromatic hops. Caramel notes, hints of nuts and fresh bread can be tasted. The traditional ERDINGER yeast unmistakably sets its top-fermenting accent. ERDINGER Dunkel made its debut in 1989 when the ERDINGER master brewer Werner Brombach, owner of the private brewery, brewed a dark wheat beer for his birthday. The recipient liked it so much that he put it on the market in 1990.

Grupa Żywiec Żywiec
Lager – Pale / 5.6% ABV / 24 IBU / 168 CAL / Żywiec, Silesian Voivodeship / 12.5°Blg

Hacker-Pschorr Weisse / Hefe Weiße / Weissbier
Wheat Beer – Hefeweizen / 5.5% ABV / 12 IBU / 165 CAL / Munich, Bayern /
Our unfiltered Hacker-Pschorr Weissbier is naturally cloudy, full-flavoured and uniquely refreshing. The history of Munich’s Hacker-Pschorr goes all the way back to 1417 and even plays a leading role in the foundation of Oktoberfest, when Prince Ludwig I of Bavaria asked them to brew a special beer for his Wedding in 1810.

Köstritzer Schwarzbierbrauerei Köstritzer Schwarzbier
Schwarzbier / 4.8% ABV / 22 IBU / 144 CAL / Bad Köstritz, Thüringen /
Since April 1991, the Köstritzer black beer brewery, a subsidiary of the Bitburger brewery, has emerged as of one of the most modern breweries in Thuringia. In September 1993, it was with great pride we (re-) introduced the “original Köstritzer black beer”.

Mustang Sally Phreak Peach Tangerine
Sour – Fruited / 6.2% ABV / 186 CAL / Chantilly, VA /
Sour ale with peach & tangerine. A Phreak series sour.

Old Ox Black Ox
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!

Old Ox Keg Nog
Spiced / 8% ABV / 240 CAL / Ashburn, VA /
We’ve brewed up one Dickens of an ale. Wheat, oats, and lactose contribute to a silky mouthfeel while nutmeg, vanilla and cinnamon add just the right amount of spice. Images of Fezziwig will dance in your head!

Oskar Blues Brewery® Dale’s® Pale Ale
Pale Ale – American / 6.5% ABV / 65 IBU / 200 CAL / Longmont, CO /
This voluminously hopped mutha delivers a hoppy nose and assertive-but-balanced flavors of pale malts and citrusy floral hops from start to finish. Oskar Blues launched its canning ops in 2002, brewing and hand-canning Dale’s Pale Ale in the Lyons, Colorado, brewpub. America’s first-craft-canned mountain pale is a hearty, critically acclaimed trailblazer that changed the way craft beer fiends perceive portable beer

Oskar Blues Brewery® Mama’s Little Yella Pils®
Pilsner – Czech / 4.7% ABV / 35 IBU / 150 CAL / Longmont, CO /
Mama’s Little Yella Pils – Our upcoming new canned good is a small-batch version of the beer that made Pilsen, Czechoslovakia famous. Mama’s is made with hearty amounts of pale malt, German specialty malts, and a blend of traditional (Saaz) and 21st century Bavarian hops. Our first canned lager, it’s also fermented at cool temperatures with a German yeast. This tasteful reality Czech is the perfect antidote for the watered-down versions of pilsner clogging Americaâ’s shelves. And Mama’s gentle hopping (about 35 IBUs) and low ABV (just 4.7%) mean we’re finally honoring consumer requests for a delicious but less-challenging beer. (Hey, we like a good low-dose session beer, too.) Look for our Gold Metal Winner on US shelves in March. Sadly, the Feds rejected our Take Two and Call Us in the Morning line on the can.

Paulaner Brauerei Salvator
Bock – Doppelbock / 7.9% ABV / 28 IBU / 237 CAL / Munich, Bayern /
Paulaner Salvator, with its strong, typically malty flavour, is what you could call the “original” Paulaner. The bottom-fermented “Doppelbock” beer combines the finest hops and dark barley malt. The Paulaner monks used to drink Salvator as a food substitute during Lent. The most famous master brewer was Frater Barnabas.

Three Notch’d History In the Making
IPA – New England / 7% ABV / 20 IBU / 210 CAL / Charlottesville, VA /
Brewed in collaboration with Sam Adams and their Head Brewer, Megan Parisi, this is their “true New England-style” take on our Minute Man IPA. Like us, they are not only inspired by history, but passionate about making it. Join the celebration of our 10th anniversary and raise a can (or glass).

Crushable wheat beer brewed with slightly sweet, juicy mango

Tucher Bräu Dunkles Hefe Weizen
Wheat Beer – Dunkelweizen / 5.2% ABV / 13 IBU / 156 CAL / Fürth, Bayern /

Tucher Bräu Original Nürnberger Rotbier
Lager – Amber / 5.5% ABV / 165 CAL / Fürth, Bayern /
Our original Nuremberg red beer reflects the origins of the Nuremberg brewing craft and is brewed according to a traditional recipe. We brew our red beer as full beer and strong beer using four types of malt each. The powerful strong beer is stored in oak barrels for fine maturation. After the storage time, our master brewers decide purely based on sensory criteria whether and, above all, which strong beer stored in wooden barrels can be mixed with the full beer.

Old Ox Black Ox
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!

Old Ox Keg Nog
Spiced / 8% ABV / 240 CAL / Ashburn, VA /
We’ve brewed up one Dickens of an ale. Wheat, oats, and lactose contribute to a silky mouthfeel while nutmeg, vanilla and cinnamon add just the right amount of spice. Images of Fezziwig will dance in your head!

✪ Featured Breweries ✪
Bayerische Staatsbrauerei Weihenstephan Weihenstephaner Korbinian
Bock – Doppelbock / 7.4% ABV / 32 IBU / 222 CAL / Freising, Bayern /
Our Korbinian, the full-bodied, dark Doppelbock with light brown foam, wins beer-lovers over with a balance of fruity hints of plums and figs, a dark malt aroma – reminiscent of toffee, nuts and chocolate. Its roasted flavour goes well with smoked meat and fish as well as venison and poultry. Brewed according to our centuries-old brewing tradition on the Weihenstephan hill.
Brasserie d’Achouffe Houblon Chouffe
IPA – Belgian / 9% ABV / 47 IBU / 270 CAL / Achouffe, Wallonie /
The gnomes of Fairyland may be little, but they have big, very big, personalities. HOUBLON CHOUFFE matches their impish spirits. All gnomes, with their innate good taste, are in full agreement about HOUBLON CHOUFFE, which is flavoured by three different types of hops. This India Pale Ale is appreciated for its pronounced bitterness combined with the fruity tones of traditional Achouffe beers: it softens the strongest of characters.
Brasserie d’Achouffe La Chouffe Blond
Belgian Strong Golden Ale / 8% ABV / 20 IBU / 240 CAL / Achouffe, Wallonie /
The gnomes of Fairyland are particularly fond of this golden beer. LA CHOUFFE, with its slight hoppy taste, combining notes of fresh coriander and fruity tones, is the drink which gives them their zest for life. At least, that’s what these imps say when they are thirsty. Their secret used to be jealously guarded from one generation to the next until the day they shared the recipe with humans to seal their friendship. Of all the legends from the wonderful region of the Belgian Ardennes, the tale of LA CHOUFFE is the one which most merits re-telling.
Brasserie d’Achouffe Mc Chouffe
Belgian Strong Dark Ale / 8% ABV / 20 IBU / 240 CAL / Achouffe, Wallonie /
Among the mythical characters living in Fairyland, some are more unusual than others. Malcolm, for example, is different because of his accent and his kilt: when it comes to beer, his favourite is Mc CHOUFFE. The delicious flavours of aniseed, liquorice and toffee tickle his taste buds. If you listen to him, he will boast of its ruby sparkle, its smooth bitterness and its strong character, worthy of his native Scotland. Although robust, Mc CHOUFFE goes down as easily as LA CHOUFFE.
Brouwerij Rodenbach Rodenbach Grand Cru
Sour – Flanders Red Ale / 6% ABV / 35 IBU / 180 CAL / Roeselare, Vlaanderen /
This is an aged Belgian red ale, which is ‘ripened quietly in oak barrels for two years’, according to the label. It has an extremely pungent aroma of rich grapey fruit, with acidic notes, very much like a slightly sour red wine or possibly a gueuze. In the mouth it is slightly sweet, extremely acidic and fruity, with grapes and even cherries discernible, and very lively. Despite the sweetness it is not at all cloying, even thin, with little or no trace of malt. Finish is sharp and fruity.
Crooked Run Fermentation Vaporware
IPA – New England / 6% ABV / 180 CAL / Sterling, VA /
Vaporware is luxuriously hopped with Cashmere and Ariana hops for a smooth, lemony flavor with light herbal notes.
Delirium – Huyghe Delirium Nocturnum
Belgian Strong Dark Ale / 8.5% ABV / 24 IBU / 255 CAL / Melle, Vlaanderen /
Color and Sight: Dark Chocolate Brown with a compact foam, white-yellow, stable and creamy. Odor Touches of caramel, mocca and chocolate. Spices such as licorice and coriander are also present.
Taste: Initially a very pleasant sensation in the mouth of alcohol and softness. It is followed by a growing bitterness, which comes partly from hops, but also from roasted malt and chocolate malt.
Towards the end, pleasant balance between bitter, sour and sweet notes.
Erdinger Weissbräu Erdinger Dunkel
Wheat Beer – Dunkelweizen / 5.3% ABV / 14 IBU / 159 CAL / Erding, Bayern /
Selected dark malts with a fine roasted aroma make ERDINGER Dunkel a full-bodied enjoyment with a strong character. It fills the glass elegantly and shines in deep brown tones. The first sip delights with a harmonious harmony of selected dark wheat and barley malts with first-class Hallertau aromatic hops. Caramel notes, hints of nuts and fresh bread can be tasted. The traditional ERDINGER yeast unmistakably sets its top-fermenting accent. ERDINGER Dunkel made its debut in 1989 when the ERDINGER master brewer Werner Brombach, owner of the private brewery, brewed a dark wheat beer for his birthday. The recipient liked it so much that he put it on the market in 1990.
Honor Lady Liberty
Wheat Beer – Other / 5.5% ABV / 10 IBU / 165 CAL / Arcola, VA /
Belgian style American wheat beer that is brewed to be crisp, refreshing, and drinkable. Brewed with Pilsner and wheat malts, American yeast, and one pound per gallon of fresh tart and sweet cherry puree.
Honor Sonic Boom
IPA – Imperial / 8% ABV / 70 IBU / 240 CAL / Arcola, VA /
Prepare to be blown away by this double IPA dry-hopped with insane amounts of dank and juicy Mosaic, Citra, and Azacca. A light golden haze of wheat and oats support a burst of hops on the nose and palate. A swift punch of flavor, directly to your taste buds!
Köstritzer Schwarzbierbrauerei Köstritzer Schwarzbier
Schwarzbier / 4.8% ABV / 22 IBU / 144 CAL / Bad Köstritz, Thüringen /
Since April 1991, the Köstritzer black beer brewery, a subsidiary of the Bitburger brewery, has emerged as of one of the most modern breweries in Thuringia. In September 1993, it was with great pride we (re-) introduced the “original Köstritzer black beer”.
Mustang Sally Crumbs: Key Lime Pie
Sour – Fruited / 8.2% ABV / 246 CAL / Chantilly, VA /
Key Lime Pie inspired Imperial Sour. Newest addition to the Crumbs series and brewed to remind you of the key lime pies that your grandparents used to make.
Old Ox Black Ox
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!
Old Ox Keg Nog
Spiced / 8% ABV / 240 CAL / Ashburn, VA /
We’ve brewed up one Dickens of an ale. Wheat, oats, and lactose contribute to a silky mouthfeel while nutmeg, vanilla and cinnamon add just the right amount of spice. Images of Fezziwig will dance in your head!
Oskar Blues Brewery® Dale’s® Pale Ale
Pale Ale – American / 6.5% ABV / 65 IBU / 200 CAL / Longmont, CO /
This voluminously hopped mutha delivers a hoppy nose and assertive-but-balanced flavors of pale malts and citrusy floral hops from start to finish. Oskar Blues launched its canning ops in 2002, brewing and hand-canning Dale’s Pale Ale in the Lyons, Colorado, brewpub. America’s first-craft-canned mountain pale is a hearty, critically acclaimed trailblazer that changed the way craft beer fiends perceive portable beer
Oskar Blues Brewery® Mama’s Little Yella Pils®
Pilsner – Czech / 4.7% ABV / 35 IBU / 150 CAL / Longmont, CO /
Mama’s Little Yella Pils – Our upcoming new canned good is a small-batch version of the beer that made Pilsen, Czechoslovakia famous. Mama’s is made with hearty amounts of pale malt, German specialty malts, and a blend of traditional (Saaz) and 21st century Bavarian hops. Our first canned lager, it’s also fermented at cool temperatures with a German yeast. This tasteful reality Czech is the perfect antidote for the watered-down versions of pilsner clogging Americaâ’s shelves. And Mama’s gentle hopping (about 35 IBUs) and low ABV (just 4.7%) mean we’re finally honoring consumer requests for a delicious but less-challenging beer. (Hey, we like a good low-dose session beer, too.) Look for our Gold Metal Winner on US shelves in March. Sadly, the Feds rejected our Take Two and Call Us in the Morning line on the can.
Three Notch’d History In the Making
IPA – New England / 7% ABV / 20 IBU / 210 CAL / Charlottesville, VA /
Brewed in collaboration with Sam Adams and their Head Brewer, Megan Parisi, this is their “true New England-style” take on our Minute Man IPA. Like us, they are not only inspired by history, but passionate about making it. Join the celebration of our 10th anniversary and raise a can (or glass).
Three Notch’d Mango Wheat
Wheat Beer – American Pale Wheat / 4.8% ABV / 12 IBU / 144 CAL / Charlottesville, VA / Crushable wheat beer brewed with slightly sweet, juicy mango
Tucher Bräu Dunkles Hefe Weizen
Wheat Beer – Dunkelweizen / 5.2% ABV / 13 IBU / 156 CAL / Fürth, Bayern /
A Bavarian specialty of dark colored, top fermented yeast beer with typical yeast cloudiness. Its unmistakable and well balanced taste is due to an excellent choice of dark aromatic malt and goes very well with traditional Bavarian dishes.
Tucher Bräu Original Nürnberger Rotbier
Lager – Amber / 5.5% ABV / 165 CAL / Fürth, Bayern /
Our original Nuremberg red beer reflects the origins of the Nuremberg brewing craft and is brewed according to a traditional recipe. We brew our red beer as full beer and strong beer using four types of malt each. The powerful strong beer is stored in oak barrels for fine maturation. After the storage time, our master brewers decide purely based on sensory criteria whether and, above all, which strong beer stored in wooden barrels can be mixed with the full beer. The result is a balanced, yet powerfully lively red beer of a special kind!

✪ Featured Breweries ✪
2 Silos Gingerbread Ale
Winter Ale / 7.2% ABV / 22 IBU / 216 CAL / Manassas, VA /
This holiday season we’re bringing back our fan favorite Gingerbread Ale! Available in limited release, this spiced winter seasonal is crafted with ginger, cinnamon and clove. These nostalgic holiday spices, complimented with biscuit and caramel specialty malts, are perfect for any festive occasion.
Athletic All Out Extra Dark
Non-Alcoholic Beer – Porter / 0.5% ABV / 10 IBU / 90 CAL / Milford, CT /
Inspired by days on the slopes and nights by the fire, All Out is a delightfully smooth and soul-warming stout. Each sip delivers a silky, full-bodied mouthfeel and pleasantly toasty finish, along with delicate notes of coffee and bittersweet chocolate. Given the depth of flavor, it’s surprisingly light and refreshing, making it the perfect beer for any time of year. We like to pair it with warm, savory dishes in winter and light but sweet treats in warmer weather.
Bell’s Kalamazoo Stout
Stout – American / 6% ABV / 221 CAL / Comstock, MI /
Named after the city where it all began, Kalamazoo Stout is one of our most classic recipes. This smooth, full-bodied stout offers a blend of aromas and flavors of dark chocolate and freshly roasted coffee, balanced with a significant hop presence.
Blue Mountain Whizkey Sour Ale
Sour – Fruited / 5% ABV / 150 CAL / Afton, VA /
Sour ale fermented with German hefeweizen yeast, aged in Buffalo Trace bourbon barrels on sweet cherries and sour cherry puree. A unique twist on the classic cocktail!
Brasserie Dupont Saison Dupont
Farmhouse Ale – Saison / 6.5% ABV / 30 IBU / 195 CAL / Tourpes, Wallonie /
Saison Dupont is a world classic beer and the yardstick for one of Belgium’s most important beer styles. It is the most admired AND imitated Saison in the world. A strong, vital yeast is key to full attenuation and thus to the style. Saison Dupont is straw colored with a dense creamy head. The nose is alive, like fresh raised bread, estery with citrus and spice notes. Full-bodied and malty, it sparkles on the palate and finishes with a zesty hop and citrus attack. Incredibly compatible with food!
Brasserie d’Achouffe Houblon Chouffe
IPA – Belgian / 9% ABV / 47 IBU / 270 CAL / Achouffe, Wallonie /
The gnomes of Fairyland may be little, but they have big, very big, personalities. HOUBLON CHOUFFE matches their impish spirits. All gnomes, with their innate good taste, are in full agreement about HOUBLON CHOUFFE, which is flavoured by three different types of hops.

Cölner Hofbräu Früh Früh Kölsch
Kölsch / 4.8% ABV / 19 IBU / 144 CAL / Cologne, Nordrhein-Westfalen /
From the recipe by Peter Josef Früh of the family brewery, this top-fermented specialty beer features the best ingredients and is brewed according to the German Purity Law. A favourite beer of Cologne, which became one of the city’s original.
Downeast Cider House Maple Waffle
Cider – Sweet / 5% ABV / 150 CAL / Boston, MA /
Our newest taproom exclusive is Maple Waffle. Inspired by the only two elements of a boozy brunch, it’s maple flavored and waffle flavored, which is how we landed on the name.
Downeast Cider House Winter Blend
Cider – Herbed / 6.5% ABV / 195 CAL / Boston, MA / Aged on toasted oak chips with cinnamon & nutmeg
Duvel Moortgat Duvel 6,66%
Belgian Blonde / 6.66% ABV / 20 IBU / 199.8 CAL / Puurs, Vlaanderen /
666, a hell of a combination. Let yourself be swept away by the dance of the hop devils, inspired by the fruity aroma of the hops and a zest of orange.
Malt: Malted barley, malted wheat.
Hops: 6 refined hop varieties
Duvel Moortgat Duvel Single Fermented
Belgian Strong Golden Ale / 6.8% ABV / 204 CAL / Puurs, Vlaanderen /
Duvel Single is a 6.8% ABV draught variant of Belgium’s best-selling specialty ale Duvel 8.5% ABV. The Single Fermentation refers to the fact that it undergoes just one fermentation process. This gives it a gentle hoppiness, a mild aroma, and a subtle, fruity bite. Brewery Staff at Duvel Moortgat have enjoyed Duvel Single Fermentation 6.8% for decades and have traditionally cold filtered a small portion of this beer for sale, at a few select locations in Belgium, and more widely in the UK and USA. Created by the Moortgat family, bottled Duvel is one of Belgium’s favorite ales. The secret of its success lies in using only best-quality ingredients, and in the well-balanced, very specific, complex brewing and refermentation process that takes over 90 days. After brewing and first fermentation – which takes about 30 days – the beer is tasted by the brewmaster and his staff. At this stage this beer is called “single-fermented.” Typical Duvel flavors and aromas are already emerging, but the beer is lower in alcohol and carbonation, and the taste is slightly lighter and crisper.
Left Hand Milk Stout Nitro
Stout – Milk / 6% ABV / 25 IBU / 180 CAL / Longmont, CO /
POUR HARD! Dark & delicious, America’s milk stout will change your perception about what a stout can be. Pouring hard out of the bottle, Milk Stout Nitro cascades beautifully, building a tight, thick head like hard whipped cream. The aroma is of brown sugar and vanilla cream, with hints of roasted coffee. The pillowy head coats your upper lip and its creaminess entices your palate. Initial roasty, mocha flavors rise up, with slight hop & roast bitterness in the finish. The rest is pure bless of milk chocolate fullness. Famous for their Nitro series, Left Hand Brewing was the first craft brewery to release a bottled nitrogenated beer. For the best experience, pour hard at 180 degrees into a 16oz glass. Different gas, different pour. Cheers! #PourHard
Left Hand Pumpkin Spice Latte Nitro
Pumpkin / 7% ABV / 210 CAL / Longmont, CO /
Pumpkin ale with spices and coffee
Old Ox Black Ox
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!
Old Ox Bye Dan
IPA – American / 7% ABV / 210 CAL / Ashburn, VA /
The Washington Commanders have sold! Tastes like 23 years worth of bitterness.
Old Ox Hog Life Amber Lager
Lager – American Amber / 6% ABV / 180 CAL / Ashburn, VA /
Old Ox Keg Nog
Spiced / 8% ABV / 240 CAL / Ashburn, VA /
We’ve brewed up one Dickens of an ale. Wheat, oats, and lactose contribute to a silky mouthfeel while nutmeg, vanilla and cinnamon add just the right amount of spice. Images of Fezziwig will dance in your head!
Perennial Artisan Ales Pharmacy Porter
Porter – Other / 6% ABV / 180 CAL / St Louis, MO /
Though rare the German Porter found its beginnings in the early portion of the 20th Century. Brewed with a base of Munich I and Vienna, with additions of Caramunich and Carafa for color and depth. Magnum and Spalt hop additions in the kettle and finally fermented at chilly temperatures with Bock yeast. Lagered for 12(!) weeks, this beer reminds us of our favorite watering holes, cool days in August, and Bavarian chocolate chip raisin cookies. Brewed in collaboration with our friends at Pharmacy.

Cider – Other Fruit / 6% ABV / 180 CAL / Winchester, VA / Elderberry cider made in collaboration with Bridge City Sinners.

9. Lost Rhino Final Glide
Wheat Beer – Hefeweizen / 5.4% ABV / 14 IBU / 162 CAL / Ashburn, VA /
A Bavarian-style hefeweizen brewed with malted german wheat. The ferrulic rest in the brew schedule gives the authentic German hefe strain the potential to create these nice banana and clove phenols you’ll recognize. True to style, served in our signature hefeweizen glass, a great beer for those warm summer days.
10. Lost Rhino Hammer Down
Lager – Helles / 5.1% ABV / 25 IBU / 153 CAL / Ashburn, VA /
11. Two Roads Czech Pilsener
Pilsner – Czech / 5% ABV / 150 CAL / Stratford, CT / Our take on the classic Czech Pilsener.
12. Two Roads Holiday Ale
Farmhouse Ale – Bière de Garde / 7.3% ABV / 219 CAL / Stratford, CT /
Two Roads Holiday Ale is inspired by the little known Biere de Noel style, a subset of Biere de Garde, both of which originated on small farmhouse breweries in the north of France. Biere de Noel, which translates as “Christmas Beer”, tends to exhibit a more malty profile than a typical Biere de Garde. In its native France this special type of ale is brewed by just a handful of small breweries and is only available for the few weeks leading up to Christmas. 2015 GIBF silver medal- Biere de Garde
