RETAIL BEER - FRUIT & SPICE
ROCHEFORT 10 (FM)
(Belgium / 11.3% / 11.2 oz. / Single) Dominant impressions of latte coffee with powerful chocolate aromas in the nose. The alcohol esters are enveloped with hints of autumn wood, citrus zest (orange, lemon) and freshly baked biscuits. The initial taste is sweetly sinful. Beer and chocolate trapped into one single glass, a liquid milky draught with a backbone of bitter malt.

DE RANKE GULDENBERG
DE RANKE GULDENBERG Tripel(Belgium / 8.0% / 11.2 oz. / Single) Guldenberg is a top-fermenting, balanced bitter beer.

DE RANKE PÈRE NOËL Belgian Strong Pale Ale (Fruit & Spice)(Belgium / 7.0% / 11.2 oz. / Single) Père Noël is a winter ale, though very different from any other winter ales you might know.

Brewed with the finest Flemish summer barley, with generous Chinook, Styrian Golding, Saphir hops selected for their distinct subtle aromas of evergreen, white grapefruit, lemongrass, and orchard blossoms. Fermented cold with Dutchess' house Lager strain, Halcyon is a clean, dynamic old world Pale Ale that makes a bold new impression.

It's an abbey ale brewed in the classic 'Quadrupel' style of Belgium's best Abbey Ales. Dark with a full, ivory-colored head.

WESTMALLE TRIPEL

RETAIL BEER - SMOKE
SCHLENKERLA EICHE OAK SMOKE
SCHLENKERLA EICHE Oak-Smoked Rauchbier (Smoke)(Germany / 8.0% / 16 oz. / 4 Pack) Following century old recipes all malts made at the Schlenkerla brewery are dried by wood fire. While for the classic "Aecht Schlenkerla Rauchbier" traditionally beech has been – and still is – used, the malt for Schlenkerla Eiche (known as "Oak Smoke") is kilned with oak wood. The resulting Oak Smoke Malt has a smoother and more multi layered smoky note than the intensely aromatic Beech Smoke Malt. The hence complex smokiness in "Schlenkerla Oak Smoke" is paired with the multifaceted bitterness of finest Hallertau aroma hops. With 8% ABV and amber color it matures for months in the deep brewery cellars underneath Bamberg into a special treat for smoke beer lovers.
SCHLENKERLA ERLE
SCHLENKERLA ERLE Smoked Schwarzbier (Smoke)(Germany / 4.2% / 16 oz. / Single) Schwarzbier has been around since at least the 16th century and was once more widespread than it is today. Schlenkerla used a very special smoked malt for their version of this classic black lager. This is not dried over a beech wood fire as usual, but over an alder wood fire. The alder-smoked malt brings a fine, complex smoky flavor to the beer, which is less strong and spicy than some of their other offerings. A high proportion of roasted malt ensures a pronounced roasted aroma and the dark, almost black color.
SCHLENKERLA FASTENBIER
SCHLENKERLA FASTENBIER Rauchbier (Smoke)(Germany / 5.9% / 16 oz. / Single) The Original Schlenkerla Lentbeer is an unfiltered smokebeer, brewed in accordance with the Bavarian Purity Law of 1516. Bottom-fermenting yeast gives the reddish brown lentbeer a natural cloudiness. Its smoky aroma is already noticeable in the smell, combined with a fine hoppy note. In the drink the fullbodied, highly drinkable lentbeer shows its strong malty flavour, rounded up with the smokey taste and a light bitterness.
SCHLENKERLA MÄRZEN
SCHLENKERLA MÄRZEN Rauchbier (Smoke)(Germany / 5.1% / 16.9 oz. / Single) Bamberg's speciality, a dark, bottom fermented smoked beer, brewed with Original Schlenkerla Smokemalt from the Schlenkerla maltings and tapped according to old tradition directly from the gravity-fed oakwood cask in the 14th century brewery tavern.
SCHLENKERLA URBOCK
SCHLENKERLA URBOCK Rauchbier (Smoke)(Germany / 6.5% / 16.9 oz. / Single) Aecht Schlenkerla Urbock is the complex sibling of the classic Märzen smokebeer. Exactly like the classic all its barley malts are smoked over beech wood logs. Its higher smokemalt concentration and longer maturation in the 700 year old cellars underneath Bramburg create a taste profile of most intense smokiness beautifully balanced with deep malt sweetness.
SCHLENKERLA WEIZEN
SCHLENKERLA WEIZEN Rauchbier (Smoke)(Germany / 5.2% / 16.9 oz. / Single) Schlenkerla Smokebeer Wheat is an ale with light smoky aroma. As Bavarian wheat beers, it is being brewed with a mixture of both barley malt and wheat malt. The portion of barley malt is hereby a classic Schlenkerla smokemalt, while the wheat malt remains unsmoked. Served unfiltered with its natural haziness, Schlenkerla Wheat reaches its full aroma through bottle fermentation with fine top fermenting yeast.

CONISTON BLUEBIRD BITTER
CONISTON BLUEBIRD BITTER Ordinary Bitter (Malt)(England / 4.2% / 16.9 oz. / Single)This Ordinary Bitter, brewers with Maris Otter pale malt and crystal malt, and hopped with Challenger is, quite simply, a wonderful beer. It is exceedingly pale (21-22 units colour), with just a hint of color in its cheeks from the dash of crystal malt. It has a massive orange fruit aroma from the challengers, balanced by biscuity malt.
ETTAL DUNKEL (FM)
(Belgium / 11.3% / 11.2 oz. / Single) Dominant impressions of latte coffee with powerful chocolate aromas in the nose. The alcohol esters are enveloped with hints of autumn wood, citrus zest (orange, lemon) and freshly baked biscuits. The initial taste is sweetly sinful. Beer and chocolate trapped into one single glass, a liquid milky draught with a backbone of bitter malt. The alcohol warms the throat and, in the finish, you will pick up traces of cloves, citrus, orange and mocha. The heaviest of the Rochefort beers, the 10 is a quadrupel style beer and can be recognized by its blue label.

PERENNIAL • ABRAXAS imperial stout
PERENNIAL ABRAXAS Imperial Stout (Roast)(Missouri / 11.5% / 25.4 oz. / Single) Perennial's famous Imperial Stout is conditioned with ancho chili peppers, cocoa nibs, vanilla beans, and cinnamon sticks. Pouring deep brown with a thick head, this beer has a complex body with a delicious lingering roastiness.
SACRED PROFANE DARK LAGER
SACRED PROFANE DARK LAGER Tmavý (Malt)(Maine / 4.0% / 12 oz. / Single) A triple decocted and open-fermented Czech-style dark lager. This is a session lager with malt complexity, complementary roast character, spicy hop flavors and immense drinkability.
SAMUEL SMITH OATMEAL STOUT
SAMUEL SMITH OATMEAL STOUT Oatmeal Stout (Roast)(England / 5.0% / 14.9 oz. / Single) Brewed with well water (the original well at the Old Brewery, sunk in 1758, is still in use, with the hard well water being drawn from 85 feet underground); fermented in ‘stone Yorkshire squares' to create an almost opaque, wonderfully silky and smooth textured ale with a complex medium dry palate and bittersweet finish.
TRILLIUM VANILLA POM POM
TRILLIUM VANILLA POM POM Sweet Stout (Roast)(Massachusetts / 6.8% / 16 oz. / Single) This full-bodied sweet stout delicately balances roasty flavors from the grain bill with subtle sweetness from the addition of milk sugar. Pom Pom teases with a nose of dark chocolate, lightly roasted coffee, and raisinettes leading into a balanced palate of chocolate milk, hazelnut, with roasty flavors and moderate sweetness. This variant is also conditioned with vanilla beans.

The service was phenomenal between the wait staff and the manager who was helping out. The Garden party cocktail was very refreshing. The meatballs were very good and easy to split between two people. For dinner we ordered the Bolognese with the house egg noodles and the roasted chicken (both pictured). The pasta came in a fantastic red sauce and the chicken was very flavorful. The espresso gelato for dessert was great on such a hot day. Will certainly be back to try the pizzas.

Rustico has officially become my comfort‑food sanctuary in Alexandria. Their Basil Tomato Soup deserves its own fan club — rich, velvety, and perfectly seasoned, it’s the kind of bowl that makes you slow down and savor every spoonful. The staff is consistently friendly, the atmosphere is cozy without trying too hard, and every visit feels like a little reset. If you’re looking for a place that nails both flavor and hospitality, Rustico delivers every time.

We really enjoyed Rustico-the service was very good. We were a little disappointed in the appetizer and dessert (calamari and ricotta donuts). They were sort of just ok. The calamari wasn't overcooked which was nice but otherwise both dishes were meh. The entrees however were fantastic. We ordered the mushroom pizza and the bolognese and both were amazing. The pizza in particular i was worried would be a little plain or one-note in terms of flavor but it was really well done....
