Burgeoning Brewing Scene in Our Nation's Capitol


Version 10.2, as of Mar 25, 2013
 
This is a great time to be a craft beer fan in the Nation's Capitol! And you are looking at my most recently updated compilation of breweries and brewpubs in the National Capitol Region. Have you heard of all the breweries, brew-pubs, and tied houses below? Have you been to a few to sample the wares? Our mantra: think global, drink LOCAL!
 
 >> Comment below about any new discoveries or to share your impressions! << 
 
One quick introductory note before you dive into the compilation. I am mainly interested in currently "open, local, craft" brewers. I define "local" as those within 100 miles (2 hours) of the US Capitol Building. I use the Brewers' Association's definition of "craft:" small, independent, and traditional.  See http://bit.ly/VgVzeH.
 
In the interest of promoting the regional brewing scene, the list you see includes some categorized exceptions to the "open, local, craft" rule:
 
·         Beer brewed locally by non-locally owned chains, e.g., Gordon Biersch, is included for completeness, but listed separately. 
·         I have a short list of "tied houses."  These retail outlets, such as the Dogfish Head Ale Houses, have no on-site brewing but they are essentially extensions of a regional brewery's tasting room.
·         To further wet your whistle, I also show a list of breweries and brewpubs that are not yet open but coming soon to a location within 100 miles of the Capitol Building.
·         I added a select group of current and future "road-trippable" breweries and brewpubs. They may be outside my arbitrary definition of LOCAL, yet if you have the time, they are well worth the drive.
·         I mention the region's two large brewers (i.e., those producing over 6 million bbls per year), Anheuser-Busch and MillerCoors. Why not? The big boys can make some good beer, too.  More importantly, they employ local brewers, and they brew gateway beers on which most of us craft beer lovers cut our teeth.
·         For reasons of nostalgia and historical completeness, I even include closed breweries and brewpubs (local, non-locally owned, and some further afield).
·         Finally, let's not forget the region's dynamic homebrew clubs! These talent incubators have given rise to many of our area's top brewers. We celebrate home-brewers who have turned pro and encourage all who may follow.
 
 >> Questions or updates are welcome in the Comments section. << 
 
Note: some brands you can buy are brewed by contract. One cannot visit the Stillwater Artisanal Brewery, for example, because Stillwater beers are currently brewed using facilities at DOG Brewing. "Currently Open" means a physical place you can go and visit, like DOG Brewing. Look for Stillwater under "Coming Soon."

CONCLUSION
 
By this count, there are (50) currently open local breweries and brew-pubs within 100 miles of the Capitol, plus an additional (26) brew-pub chains and "tied house" brewery outlets.  Added to these establishments, we have (43) more breweries and brew-pubs coming soon to the local area. Lots of choice, and more on the way!
 
Going slightly further afield, I highlight (39) current and (17) future breweries that are not far outside the arbitrary 100-mile radius and well worth a road trip.  And because brewing, like any other business, follows a lifecycle, I list (38) breweries or brewpubs no longer in operation: gone but not forgotten. 
 
And while we're at it, let's not forget to highlight the amateur brewers who meet, greet, and compete in (18) local home-brew clubs.
 
In all, this list highlights (214) past, present and future fresh beer outlets, each an important part of the lively and growing beer scene in the National Capitol Region. Today's brewers are enhancing and extending the American brewing tradition from our Nation's frothy founding to its foam-filled future.
 
 
 
Support Your Local Breweries!
 
Join me in hoisting a pint supporting the burgeoning brewing scene in our Nation's Capitol!  Cheers!
 
Rock on, DC-Area Brewers!  We're thirsty!

  2. Excellent work, Dave! Thanks for putting this together. I like your organizational method as well. It's long overdue to dispense with that meaningless term: 'craft' beer. By the way, another source for 'pre-modern' breweries would be "American Breweries II", written by Dale Van Wieren, and published in 1995 by the Eastern Coast Breweriana Association, 1995.

    1. Thomas, thank you for the kinds words. This is a labor of love to some extent. I know what I like, and I like to share what I know! Thank you for commenting on the reorganized presentation of these venues. Pretty much a complete overhaul from version 9. Finally, I am especially grateful for the additional reference material you cited. I will check it out. Cheers!

  3. Thanks for putting us on the list! Just want to ask for two small corrections: Frey’s Brewing Company in Mt. Airy, MD (we also own/operate a commercial hop farm called Libertytown Hops, but it's not a part of the brewery's namesake). See http://freysbrewing.com for more info.

    Just down the road from us is Milkhouse Brewery at Stillpoint Farm, Mt Airy, MD. Their farm is a part of their name.

    Cheers!

    1. Adam, thanks for the corrections. I'll change the entry for your brewery and for that of your neighbor in the database now, and publish the correction in the next update. Looks like Mt Airy is turning into a beer destination! And just a short, scenic drive from DC!

      Delete
    2. Adam, I had time to make the two changes you requested today, vice waiting for the next version. Cheers!

  4. I am curious if Rock Creek did brew in Richmond, because I know a brewery by that name was based in Raleigh, NC for a time. The head brewer left and eventually returned, the brewery here has changed hands and names a few times but currently is Big Boss Brewing.

    1. Thomas, good question. Here is what I am tracking (but I state upfront that I have only secondary sources for this answer): Potomac River Brewing Co., Chantilly, VA (1993-1998). Potomac River Brewing (Chantilly) was sold to Rock Creek Brewing (Richmond). Rock Creek in Richmond closed in 2005, appears to have been sold to Chesapeake Bay Brewing (Raleigh), which retained the "Rock Creek Brewing" DBA but they didn't brew any of the old PRB beers. I believe Ches Bay is now closed but I don't have the date or any knowledge about where the brewer and the equipment went.

      I was not aware of Big Boss. Can you fill me in? Thanks!

      Delete
    2. Big Boss Brewing Company, 1249-A Wicker Dr., Raleigh, NC 27604. (919) 834-0045. http://www.bigbossbrewing.com. There beers are on tap at the awesome Raleigh Times Bar in Raleigh, NC.

      From BBB's website:

      "Big Boss Brewing Company was started in 2006 and shipped it first beer in the 2nd quarter of 2007 in the triangle area of North Carolina. It was formed as collaboration between Geoff Lamb, a UNC graduate, who returned to North Carolina in 2006 to join forces with Brewmaster, Brad Wynn, who has 12+ years of brewing experience including several years with Victory, Wild Goose and Native Brewing Company."

      Delete
    3. That is the one, the history on the brewery there was...

      Tomcat Brewing
      Chesapeake Bay Brewing
      Rock Creek Brewing
      Edenton Brewing
      last and current Big Boss.

      I think that order is correct. Brad did some of the initial set up on the earlier version and I believe the name has changed but the brewhouse has remained the same throughout the changes. (Not an expert but did work for the brewery)

      Delete
    4. Thomas, thanks much! This is good stuff. So, it looks like 5 breweries have operated at Wicker Drive. Do you happen to know any of the dates associated with the starts and stops of these breweries? All I know is Big Boss started in 2006, according to their website.

  16. There are a few up this way that should qualify for your list. You're welcome to come visit and we can give them a try.

    Troeg's Brewing Company, Hershey, PA
    Market Cross Pub, Carlisle, PA
    Appalachian Brewing Company, Harrisburg, PA

    1. Thanks, Bibliophile! I added Troegs which is only 131 miles from the Capitol. When I last visited Market Cross, it was a pub, not a brew pub. Have they started brewing? Have they converted to a tied house for one brewer? If so, I will add them. I already have Appalachian in Gettysburg (87) and Camp Hill (120). I believe the Camp Hill location, very near Harrisburg, is the one to which you refer. I also added Selin's Grove Brewing Co (166). I visited this place in 2010, after you recommended it!
