19 Best Craft Breweries near Alexandria

“Amazing beer. Great staff who can talk about the beer. That’s it!“

“Came in and headed Tame Impala, I knew this was the vibe I needed. I purchased two slices and wanted a glass of wine from the bar. When I sat at the bar I realized they did not have the wine I wanted and their selection was few for wine. The bartender quickly jumped into action trying to understand the flavor profile I prefer to suggest products they do have. We landed on their Blood orange Goose product.
Will be coming back.“

“Pet friendly! Great bier! Staff is always most awesome!“

“While exploring Alexandria’s craft beer scene, we stopped at Aslin Beer Company and had an excellent experience from start to finish.

The first thing that stands out is the size of the space. The brewery is massive, with multiple levels, plenty of seating, a large bar area, merchandise shop, arcade games, and a welcoming atmosphere that never felt crowded. During our visit there was even a private event taking place, but the brewery is so large that we barely noticed it.

The beer was outstanding. As an IPA fan, Aslin definitely delivered with a great selection of fresh, flavorful craft beers. Every beer we tried was well made and exactly what you’d hope to find from a respected craft brewery.

The food was equally impressive. We ordered the pepperoni and hot honey pizza along with the cheese curds. The pizza had a perfectly crisp crust with just the right balance of sweet heat from the hot honey, while the cheese curds were hot, crispy, and highly addictive.

Service was friendly and efficient, and the staff kept things moving despite a busy afternoon crowd. I also appreciated the large selection of beer to go, glassware, apparel, and brewery merchandise available for purchase.

A helpful tip for visitors: Aslin is a cashless business, so be sure to bring a credit or debit card.

If you’re looking for great craft beer in Alexandria, Virginia, Aslin Beer Company is absolutely worth a visit. Excellent beer, delicious food, friendly service, fun games, and one of the coolest brewery spaces we’ve visited. We’ll definitely return the next time we’re in the area.“

“As H Street neighbors of Henceforth, there was no doubt in our minds that we wanted to host our Wedding Welcome Party here. Everyone knew the beers were going to be great, but the food easily stole the show. The bartenders were attentive, fun, and quick. Erin was super helpful in planning and executing. The upstairs taproom was the perfect venue and size to host 75-80 guests.If you are looking to host a party on H Street, you would be insane not to have Henceforth be at the top of your list.“
