“I was in DC for a couple of days and after a day of sightseeing, was ready to chill and grab some beers. I'm a huge craft beer fan and saw that Other Half's DC location was pretty close to where I was staying. I've had quite a few of their beers and also been to their brewery in Brooklyn, which was boss. This location was equally good. I ended up getting four beers, two NEIPA's, which were both really good and fresh and also two barrel aged beers, one was great, the other not so much. Service was on point and the guy behind the bar was very friendly and accommodating. It is a large space with outdoor seating and there was a quiz going on while I was there. You can also buy beer to take away too.“
“MyLHBS always has high quality base & specialty malts. The yeast and hops are fresh with a great selection. Derek is helpful when creating a recipe w good suggestions to make my beer interesting. If there are no beers on tap (to fill growlers) there are always a good selection of canned craft beers.“
“An awesome replacement for the sadly departed Astro Lab! We stopped in for dinner tonight and had a couple of excellent sandwiches, highly recommend the tri tip sandwich and my wife enjoyed her club, with a tasty Irish Red Ale and a rose. Everyone was super friendly and made us feel welcome. We had a four legged friend with us so we sat outside, but with the big bay doors, the indoors was just as comfortable. We will definitely return!“
“Awesome people and they have great grilled cheese recommendations. Great beer too!!Edit: awesome service is even MORE awesome with Naomi! I won’t say what night she works because you don’t need to make her even more popular ? But she is the best!“
“Have always loved Aslin, was stoked to be able to finally try it from the source while visiting DC. The beer did not disappoint. The staff did not give the welcoming vibe that I’m used to at breweries, I ordered two half pours and the bartender gave me grief about showing two ids for the two beers, never had that happen before and beyond that they generally did not give off a very hospitable or friendly vibe. Amazing beer though.“

“Went to see Solace on 3/16/24. Absolute best venue to see a metal show. Excellent sound. Great beer. Clean bathrooms. Tons of arcade games. They have spirits, wine, and soda if you don't like beer. Staff is super sweet. Go for some drinks, a show, or just to hang out with friends.“
“Hellbender is a very warm and welcoming place with laid-back and personable staff. It’s a very relaxing place to spend a few hours on a weekday evening while sipping a tasty beer.I like their drinks because they’ve resisted the “fruity-pebbles IPA” trend that seems to have afflicted a lot of breweries over the past couple years. Everything they make is smooth, drinkable and original. Wednesday open mic night draws some really talented musicians thanks to neighboring Takoma Park.“
“What a beer lovers place to go. Lots of parking across the street. I've seen their beers in many beer and wine stores and Optimal Wit is probably the most recognizable. For folks that like pilsners like me, there are so many to choose from and really enjoyed their downright Pilsner and their American pale ale, essential pale ale. Nice to see breweries still make these that are not all IPA's. Their outdoor seating is huge with smaller indoor and bar seating and in the back where the beer tanks are even more seating and also where you can reserve tables for bigger parties. They don't serve food but have food trucks where you can order food. Lots of TV's to watch sports. For the kids they have two arcades (like Donkey Kong, Pac man, Galaga) that are free to use.“
“I just wanted to post a review to say THANK YOU to the staff today!! I took my husband there for a "surprise" belated birthday get-together with family...I wasn't sure if 5 people or 15 people were going to show up! Our family loved the atmosphere and the food was soooooooo good. It was also so family friendly, as we had 6 kids under age 6! I'll definitely be back when I'm in the area again, but I'm sending all my NOVA family your way!!“
“This was my first visit to Starr Hill Biergarten and I was really pleasantly surprised. What a cool place! Eleven floors up to a big outdoor play space with views of the Tysons Corner skyline. It's December, so not much happening outdoors, but the small heated tent was cozy, warm, and festively decorated. The beers were great, especially the Warm Up Spiced Winter Ale. Service was friendly and prompt. We ordered food and the Buffalo Chicken Wrap was excellent - just the right spice level, proportion of ingredients and firmly wrapped. The fries were tasty too, and my partner liked the brat.“
“Lost Generation is such a gem in the NE area. I walk past this brewery on the MBT all the time but this was my first time visiting. The staff were absolutely amazing, both friendly and helpful in explaining the beer options. I truly enjoyed hearing the owner's story of starting the brewery. It was great to hear about this family run business. Lost Generation had a great selection of beers especially IPAs, which are my favorite. They do not have food but they have rotating food trucks every week. You can also get a brewery tour here. The space is nice and open, and family friendly. I look forward to stopping in more on my MBT walks.“

“Ah, Right Proper Brewery in Washington, D.C., is a veritable oasis of libations, dear friends. The ambiance, a delicate symphony of rustic charm and modern chic, creates an environment where wit and whimsy flow as freely as the finest ales. Their concoctions, oh, they are nothing short of artistic alchemy! One is met with an array of flavors, each more delightful and daring than the last, as if the brewmaster himself were a maestro composing a sensational sonnet for the senses.The staff, as adept as they are charming, provide impeccable service, akin to a well-practiced vaudeville act, replete with banter and bonhomie. It is here, amidst the hearty laughter and intellectual discourse, that one finds the true spirit of conviviality.In the heart of the nation's capital, Right Proper Brewery stands as a haven for those seeking refuge from the mundane, where pleasure and conversation are paramount. To visit is to indulge in a delightful dalliance with the esoteric and the exquisite, an experience to be savored as a decadent secret among the discerning. Cheers to Right Proper, for it is nothing short of a Wildean delight!“
“Nice brewery. I've been here a few times for work social. There are plenty of tables available indoors and a couple of outdoors. The beers are great, especially Howling Gale IPA. It would be nice if they serve finger foods go with the beers. There's a taco food truck outside that I haven't tried.“
“May 2023 - 3 years later, we still almost weekly. Still dog friendly and our new dog can't go there enough. The beer is still good. The folks are still good. They have given the exterior a face lift. They have food on the weekends. Check it out if you haven't!Nov 2020 - Just moved to the area, but this is one of our favorite places...go there 1-2 to times a week! Check it out if you haven't - and a bonus it is dog friendly. If you are willing to wait for it, pick up Roaming Rooster you can make a afternoon/evening of it. You can even play Centipede as you drink for 25 cents!!!“
“Overall, good food and good service. I had the chicken sandwich with their signature in house IPA which was tasty. Things I didn't like (though somewhat petty) was the high cost off the food which though fine tasting wasn't the best I've had for the price nor was the quantity of shoe string fries worthy of the price paid per entree. Lastly, the waiter offered a bread basket but did not disclose it cost extra, which felt a little underhanded. I would eat there again. I did like the quieter atmosphere.“
“Get the beer !!!!! Stay for the Beer !!!!! but also like don't be hangry eeeeeeeether soy have your belly fed too bish ! Tip* BE READY TO ORDER !!!! This place is run like a ship so get in line or don't be offended . Anywho , the food is mouth waterinnnnnnnng .

Be gay , be merry , be you at red bear, bish!“
“Gotta love a good brewery with some great events! We are regulars at their trivia night - and it's a ton of fun. I enjoy Aslin's sour beer selection and love that their fans feature artwork that is fun and quirky! The staff is wonderful and we always feel welcome :) Don't give this place a miss! check out their trivia night (and while at it, also their goat yoga!)!“
“City State and thier staff (especially Cristina) were so helpful in reserving tables for a party. Their policy on this is very reasonable and makes it a great spot to bring a bunch of friends together. Not to mention the beer and arcade games are fun as well!“
“We've been here quite a few times! It's definitely a great spot. Love the vibe, drinks and food. And kid-friendly which is always a plus. Good food menu with many options. My husband leans towards the IPAs and I always go their seltzers! In-laws were visiting so we wanted to take them to one of our favorite spots! The pretzel is by far my favorite pretzel and THE best I've had so far! And the we also love the fried chicken thighs! Pair it up with one of their small salads (still a HUGE portion!) and you have a great meal!“

“Don't listen to Ward A. His group was visibly intoxicated and I heard shouted obscenities from them multiple times, as did all the tables full of people around me. Dude just can't handle being asked to leave cause you'd had too much to drink. Be a man about it and just go home. Stop with your pathetic, flimsy excuses. People applauded when your party finally left.Great job by all the staff handling this drunk group and trying to create the atmosphere everyone expects at Silver Branch.“
“Great brewery with a variety of types of beer, including the amazing purple, U-Bae sour which tastes less like a sour and more like a ube cake. Sticky Rice sour was also great w mango, rice milk, and coconut. Both of these beers were SO unique! Loved the 16% valor barelywine. Another unique item for a brewery. Charm milk stout was good - similar to other milk stouts I've had.Atmosphere is super super cute (and industrial) with events almost daily. However, note, their actual happy hour special is 2 beers and slice of pizza for $12 until 6PM. The website says it is $2 off draft beer after 8PM.“
“This morning, I had to make a super hard decision between awesome smelling coffee and good tasting beer that I had from them in the past. It was my first time in that building... Industrial looking with tons of seating and people vary from working to family and strollers.“

“Ok - so here’s the deal - I really don’t want TOO many people to find out about this place as it has become like a second home to me and I don’t want it to become overcrowded to the point I can’t get in ….I’be been here multiple times just in the past week, and am always greeted by the staff (have I been here too much ????) and served PROMPTLY! I’m here usually every Friday after work, and other times, and when we (my [adult] son and I) come to watch the Washington Spirit soccer (away) games, they ALWAYS put it on some TVs where we can easily see the game.Growing up, I was a Milwaukee’s Best Light drinker, then graduated to Busch Light (Latte!) and my more REFINED palate of Michelob Ultra, but I have found a new favorite (CRAFT BEER!!!) - Blood Orange Gose (it’s a sour???). I met Jim, the Manager, tonight and am confident we will become better acquainted in the coming months, and I know we’ll become fast friends.On the food - I don’t know if it’s the best pizza ever, but for me, 2 slices of pepperoni is the right amount and I LOVE the style, size, texture, and taste. I’ve had the Old Bay chicken wings and fries as well, which are both good, but I come for the pizza and beer.The outdoor patio seating and ability to open up the doors from the outside to the inside is awesome when the weather is good.It’s family-friendly and we’ve seen dogs in the outdoor area many times (who’s a good boy?), and simply put, love everything about our experience here and look forward to many visits for years to come.Do yourself a favor when you’re down in Navy Yard (in between the Metro and Nationals Stadium) and stop in for a slice and a beer - you won’t regret it!“
“Visited in October 2014. A spacious and inviting brewpub with an extensive selection of excellent brews. The service was prompt and exceptionally friendly. I was pleasantly surprised by the high quality of the beers. Definitely worth a visit.“
“This is a great inexpensive spot to get Really Good Margaritas ? wings and sushi ? !! It is spacious with a sports bar atmosphere with lots of TVs. HIGHLY RECOMMENDParking: There is garage parking with an entrance right next to this place however that entrance is currently closed off and you have to come in on the All American Blvd side across from the movie theater. The Brewery will validate your ticket however the parking is inexpensive $2 -$4. There is also limited street parking!“
“The OKC Burger and fries are delicious. I am unable to recommend them enough; a must try if you enjoy hamburgers. They have a good beer selection as well. Also, the service is first-rate at the bar. Don't let the simple look of the place deter you from eating there.“
