Click here for Festival Menu ✪ 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 Totally Cannon Sour - Smoothie / 5% ABV / 150 CAL / Alexandria, VA / Our collaboration with Hidden Springs Ale Works! Totally Cannon is a Sour Ale with raspberry, hazelnut, chocolate, & milk sugar. The tart from the raspberry is balanced out nicely from the chocolate & hazelnut with a nice creamy mouthfeel from the milk sugar. Bell's Kalamazoo Stout Stout - American / 6% ABV / 180 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! Honor Lady Liberty Wheat Beer - Fruited / 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.. Juicy Brewing Kuzy 777 Lager - Vienna / 5% ABV / 150 CAL / Herndon, VA / Evgeny Kuznetzov joined brewers at Juicy Brewing in Herndon to brew a limited release beer. The Kuzy 777 is a tribute to Evgeny’s inevitable next milestone of 777 points. It has more color and flavor than a lager, but is exceptionally drinkable. Amber in appearance with a fuller body from all natural grain brewing and the long lagering required for a beer of this class. The beer has been slightly dry hopped for better natural perfume and pleasant bitterness. The strata hops give it strawberry and citrus aromas. 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 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 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! Port City Optimal® Wit Wheat Beer - Witbier / 4.9% ABV / 15 IBU / 147 CAL / Alexandria, VA / GABF: 2013 & 2021 Gold, 2015 Bronze, 2018 Silver, in the Belgian-style Witbier category. Unfiltered Wheat Beer with Orange Peel, Coriander, and Grains of Paradise (relative of ginger root). A light and refreshing beer, with a balance of drinkability and complexity. Crisp, citrus flavor with spice and a subtle pepperiness on the finish. Sierra Nevada Hazy Little Thing IPA - New England / 6.7% ABV / 35 IBU / 201 CAL / Chico, CA / As brewers,
