✪ Feature Breweries ✪
Nepenthe Foe-Hammer
IPA – New Zealand / 6.5% ABV / 195 CAL / Baltimore, MD /
Forged on an anvil of 100% pilsner malt. Tempered in the roaring fires of Riwaka, Nelson Sauvin, and Motueka. Quenched in fermentation on a clean, classic strain. Punchy tropical notes of key lime, kiwi, white grape, guava, and passionfruit give way to a finish so keen it could cut. Bright as blue flame.
Nepenthe Glamour
Pilsner – Other / 4.8% ABV / 144 CAL / Baltimore, MD /
This dazzling little lager struts onto the scene sporting a bed of crackery pilsner malt. Gently dry-hopped with just enough Vic Secret, Nelson Sauvin, and Lemondrop. Pale, gleaming straw in color with notes of crisp malt, honeysuckle, and sun-ripened peaches, flaunting a dry, clean finish. A perfect quencher as the days turn to the searing brightness of summer.
Nepenthe Polydribbles #19
Sour – Fruited / 5.9% ABV / 177 CAL / Baltimore, MD /
Brewed with the same simple base of 2-row and wheat malts as its predecessors, then conditioned on a ridiculous amount of juicy strawberry, hibiscus, and orange puree. Bursting with notes of strawberry mimosa, hibiscus sun tea, sweet orange zest, and summer sunshine.
Nepenthe Wolfbann
Lager – Munich Dunkel / 4.9% ABV / 147 CAL / Baltimore, MD /
It is wise to show respect to a summoner of wolves. Brewed with two types of Munich malt and a snarl of Carafa II Special. Fermented on a traditional German yeast and patiently lagered for over a month. Clean and crisp with intense notes of pumpernickel, chocolate, fig, and the thrill of the hunt. The magus gestures and the pack hunts.
Paulaner Brauerei Oktoberfest Märzen / Original Münchner Märzen
Märzen / 5.8% ABV / 20 IBU / 174 CAL / Munich, Bayern /
An amber beer style that was developed over 200 years ago to celebrate the original Oktoberfest. The Märzen name comes from “March beer” because it was historically brewed in March to be at peak flavor for the Oktoberfest celebration. Today this style is available year-round in the US due to popular demand.
Paulaner Brauerei Paulaner Oktoberfest Wiesn
Festbier / 6% ABV / 180 CAL / Munich, Bayern /
Brewed once a year, and only available while supplies last, Oktoberfest Wiesn is the pinnacle of German brewing: deep golden color, full-bodied and wonderfully mellow, with a balanced harmonious taste and the pleasant fragrance of hops. At 6% ABV, it is stronger and bolder that the usual lager. Malts: Munich and Pilsner. Hops: Herkules, Taurus and Hallertauer Tradition.
Radeberger Gruppe Radeberger Pilsner
Pilsner – German / 4.8% ABV / 33 IBU / 144 CAL / Frankfurt am Main, Hessen /
Crowned the official drink by King Friedrich August III of Saxony, Radeberger, a pilsner style beer brewed near Dresden, is characterized by its dazzling and refreshing taste and has long been enjoyed by German nobility.
Radeberger Gruppe Schöfferhofer Grapefruit
Shandy / 2.5% ABV / 75 CAL / Frankfurt am Main, Hessen /
Now that you’ve discovered the new unique taste of our beer, we salute your ways to keep it fresh. As an original – the first to combine Hefeweizen beer and grapefruit juice, we’d like to introduce you to the “proper” pronunciation of our unusual and challenging name: Chauffeur + ah + (The) Hoff + ah!
Radeberger Gruppe Sion Kölsch
Kölsch / 4.8% ABV / 144 CAL / Frankfurt am Main, Hessen /
http://www.sion.de Brewing is the art of creating something special with the few ingredients specified by the purity law and the Kölsch convention. Pure water from our own well, top-fermenting yeast from our own pure culture, the best barley and wheat malt and selected hops – the result is delicious: tangy and fresh on the tongue, slightly dry and hoppy on the palate, slim and elegant in the finish. Simply good taste, which can take the following forms.
Allgäuer Brauhaus Oberdorfer Festbier
Festbier / 5.4% ABV / 162 CAL / Kempten (Allgäu), Bayern /
Solace Air Gourd’n Pumpkin Porter
Pumpkin / 6.3% ABV / 189 CAL / Dulles, VA /
Pumpkin Porter
Solace Gute Nacht
Märzen / 5.5% ABV / 165 CAL / Dulles, VA /
Malty and full-bodied, this classic Marzen-style lager is the perfect beer to kick of the fall season.
Solace Laces Out
IPA – American / 6.5% ABV / 195 CAL / Dulles, VA /
Brewed with Galaxy, Lotus and El Dorado Hops.
Solace Thunder Buddy
IPA – American / 6.5% ABV / 195 CAL / Dulles, VA /
Tucher Bräu Humbser Rotbier
Lager – Amber / 5% ABV / 150 CAL / Fürth, Bayern /
Special Red Beer for the Fürther Kerwa
Tucher Bräu Lager Hell/Helles
Lager – Helles / 5.2% ABV / 156 CAL / Fürth, Bayern /
Der Begriff Lagerbier entwickelte sich Ende des 14. Jahrhunderts mit der Einführung der untergärigen Brauweise. Holzfässer dienten zur Einlagerung in kühlen Kellern. Unser Nürnberger Lager Hell ist mit in Eichenholzfässern…
Tucher Bräu Tucher Festbier
Festbier / 6% ABV / 180 CAL / Fürth, Bayern /
Tucher Bräu Tucher Helles Hefe Weizen
Wheat Beer – Hefeweizen / 5.2% ABV / 13 IBU / 156 CAL / Fürth, Bayern /
A traditional, high fermented Bavarian yeast beer specialty with an accentuated wheat beer flavour and high vitamin B contents. Natural yeast cloudiness due to top fermentation. A sparkling refreshing and thirstquenching product!

✪ Featured Breweries ✪
Bitter Fruit Iron Simms Peach Chamomile Saison
Farmhouse Ale – Saison ⁄ 6.5% ABV ⁄ 195 CAL ⁄ Chantilly, VA ⁄
Bitter Fruit Kickin It WIT B. Mitch
Wheat Beer – Witbier ⁄ 5% ABV ⁄ 150 CAL ⁄ Chantilly, VA ⁄
Brewed in collaboration with former NFL kick returner Brian Mitchell. This beer was brewed at Old Bust Head.
Hacker-Pschorr Münchner (Munich) Gold
Lager – Dortmunder ⁄ 5.5% ABV ⁄ 15 IBU ⁄ 165 CAL ⁄ Munich, Bayern ⁄
“Munich Gold” closely resembles our Münchner Hell in terms of taste and mainly owes its popularity to a slightly higher original gravity and the malty note. The result is a full-bodied yet mild taste which delivers an increasingly bitter note before culminating into an aromatic finish. A real treat for true beer connoisseurs! The types of barley grown in the Swabian Jura and in the Upper Palatinate Region of Bavaria are excellently suited for the production of this timeless classic. Hacker-Pschorr has been brewing beer in the traditional Bavarian manner since 1417. The high-quality beers the brewery produces are all brewed in accordance with the Bavarian Purity Law and contain only water, malt and hops.
Hacker-Pschorr Oktoberfest Märzen
Märzen ⁄ 5.8% ABV ⁄ 174 CAL ⁄ Munich, Bayern ⁄
The traditional Hacker-Pschorr Oktoberfest Märzen. Note that this is not the Festbier served at the Wies’n.
Paulaner Brauerei Oktoberfest Märzen / Original Münchner Märzen
Märzen ⁄ 5.8% ABV ⁄ 20 IBU ⁄ 174 CAL ⁄ Munich, Bayern ⁄
An amber beer style that was developed over 200 years ago to celebrate the original Oktoberfest. The Märzen name comes from “March beer” because it was historically brewed in March to be at peak flavor for the Oktoberfest celebration. Today this style is available year-round in the US due to popular demand.
Paulaner Brauerei Paulaner Oktoberfest Bier
Festbier ⁄ 6% ABV ⁄ 180 CAL ⁄ Munich, Bayern ⁄
Ever since 1818 we have brewed our bottom-fermented Oktoberfest Bier during Oktoberfest – Germany’s favourite Oktoberfest beer and a true institution in Munich. The glass is full of October sunshine, strong and golden. The perfect balance of a light taste of hops and a strong note of malt. A feast of a beer, which always goes down well. This beer is only brewed for the Oktoberfest. That’s where it belongs, along with all the fun of the fair like the Ferris wheel and roasted almonds. The fact that we can brew this beer every year for the Oktoberfest is an honour and a pleasure. We belong to the 6 breweries, which have the exclusive permission to supply their beer at the largest folk festival in the world where we serve over a million litres in our beer tents – brought to your table by waitresses who easily carry ten 1 litre beer mugs (Mass) at once. A distinguishing feature from other festival beers is the particular harmony of balance between the sweeter taste of malt and that of the hops. The initial mild taste followed by a stronger note, invites you to take a second taste. By tradition it is also slightly stronger than a normal Lager, but the high grade of fermentation makes it particularly easy to drink. Friends of a good beer like to take the time to savour their beer, ideally with a typical beer tent snack like smoked mackerel or radish with bread and chives and mini meatballs.
