Definitive Washington DC visit thread

If you have a chance to try it, the new Triple IPA from Ocelot is pretty outstanding. Great aroma and dangerously drinkable.

I might make a special trip out there this Sunday and fill a growler or two. Jace is a cool guy and happy this collab turned out well.

 

[Beerontwowheels]

If you ever make it out to Ocelot brewing I'll pour you a beer.

You work at Ocelot now!? I think I'm stopping in this weekend. I'll be the dude with a 10 month old baby filling growlers.

Edit: Yes, I've already trained my girl on how to properly fill growlers. That weird?

Came here to post this. Ocelot, please make more Talking Backwards and maybe put it in bottles or cans so I can drink it at home in my basement like a neckbearded goon rather than walking/biking the 1.5 miles to Meridian Pint to get it on tap.

Belated congrats on the kid (mine is 15 months old). We should plan some dad-friendly bottle shares, e.g. on the weekend, not at 6pm on a Thursday evening like the old Smoke and Barrel crew is wont to do these days, and bring your kid(s) for happy fun play time.

Hell, I'm in! Weekends work best. brees6221's daughter is almost old enough to babysit. Then we can all have a few beers without worrying!

It seems like just yesterday we were saying her bedtime prayers with her so we could go back downstairs and continue drinking, lol. Damn, she needs to stop growing up! We do need to put some drinking time on the calendar soon though...

Well that didn't last long. I wonder how frequently, if at all, they'll be able to offer a list close to that.

There's too much cash floating around DC for bottles like that to last very long

Just hit up Sovereign on Saturday and had a Fou Foune. DC importing laws (or lack there of) really make this beer hobby even better! By the way thanks for sharing that Ocelot anny post. Definitely hope to make it to that

Will be in DC next weekend. Opening this thread was a mistake...

I'd definitely check out Right Proper if you have time. They are doing some great things with low ABV yeast driven beer. I feel like the quality has dipped slightly since the Bluejacket guy took over the pub operations, but they are still my favorite local brewery by a mile.

Or come visit me at Ocelot on Saturday

 

[ABSTRACTlegend]

Saturday isnt an option. Really only looking to snoope around on friday afternoon/evening.

 

[mymrnngjckt]

I travel there a bit for work. If I only have one evening/afternoon, I would do Right Proper and then Churchkey.

Anywhere around Dupont Circle to grab a beer? At Pizza Paradiso now.

Or am I better off just hopping on the metro and heading somewhere else?

4 blocks east is ChurchKey, not sure what time they open.

They don't open until 4

 

[RC46Interceptor]

Golden Brown Delicious is open (owned by NRG, who owns/operates Churchkey, Rustico, Bluejacket, etc). They should have 1-2 Tired Hands beers on tap and some other decent stuff. It's a couple blocks from Pizza Paradiso on the south side of the circle.



*edit. sorry, they're actually not open on Fridays for some reason*
