DREAMWEAVER

nick — Mon, 16 Aug 2010 19:57:26 +0000

Our guest tap tonight is Troegs Dreamweaver Wheat. “Combining four wheat types with Munich and Pils malts, noble Saaz hops, and a yeast strain that imparts a spicy, peppery, clove taste with a slight hint of bananas, Dreamweaver Wheat is an unfiltered blast of spicy, mouthwatering joy. Try it with goat cheese.”

Next Monday, August 23 we celebrate DC Craft Beer Week with not one, but two guest taps from Victory Brewing and rotating guest taps all week! We’re pleased to have Mad King Weiss and Gassy Jack Bitter, two Victory specialties that are rarely seen outside their brewpub!

Tonight’s guest tap is from Karma Ale from Avery Brewing of Boulder, CO who just celebrated their 17th anniversary.

Our guest tap tonight is Maredsous Tripel, a big, rich 10% ABV Belgian Abbey beer brewed by Duvel Moortgat, the folks who bring you Duvel and Ommegang. It’s complex and food friendly, with notes of fruit, yeast and spice making it especially nice with cheese.

STILLWATER CELLAR DOOR AMERICAN FARMHOUSE ALE

nick — Mon, 19 Jul 2010 20:29:07 +0000

Our guest tap tonight is Stillwater Cellar Door American Farmhouse Ale. This from the brewer: “…many summer offerings tend to lack the complexity of their bigger, colder season counterparts; so my goal was to craft an ale of extreme balance with a delicate complexity that allows for contemplation while also providing quaffable refre…shment. starting with a base of German wheat & pale malts this crisp slightly hazy foundation was then accented with a blend of Sterling & Citra hops providing a intricate blend of herbal grass & tangerine citrus flavors and aroma. to pull this all together and to complete the ‘cleansing’ aspect of my vision i gently finished the ale off with a touch of white sage, lending a mild earthy spice character to the blend. of course let’s not forget our house saison yeast that brought all the elements together leaving a dry yet intricate finish.”  For more info click here.
