If you're going into DC, check out Churchkey, they've got an excellent selection, with usually four or five cask conditioned ales which they serve at the proper temperature (yay!). In Silver Spring the best place to drink beer is the Quarry House, which has a very nice bottle selection, and is my favorite dive bar. I'd invite you over for some homebrew, but I'm going to be on the other side of the country. Safe travels!
