I recently got a press release about the Men’s Journal‘s 76 Best Places to Drink a Beer in America. This reminded me of my own arbitrarily picked best places to drink a beer in the District of Columbia.
In no particular order:
1. Cantina Marina because I like boats and Budweiser.
2. Meridian Pint (and all the Pint family) because I like good beer too.
3. Churchkey (see above.)
4. The Pug because I like to curse and watch local sports.
5. Solly’s (see above.) Ed. Note: Happy 10 years again!!
6. Dew Drop Inn because I like trains and bric a brac.
7. Bluejacket because I like baseball.
8. Nanny O’Briens because I like drinking local and I’m addicted to their mustard based wings. Ed. Note: Best (non Korean style) wings in DC.
9. The Blaguard because I like the Burgundy and Gold.
10. Dacha because I like drinking outside.
11. Red Derby because I like drinking on Roof decks (and it is also convenient to another favorite of mine, Lyman’s Tavern, located next door.)
12. Boundary Stone because I occasionally like to drink good whiskey after my beer.
13. Satellite Room because I like the 9:30 Club.
14. Looking Glass Lounge because Georgia Ave is where it’s at (also neighbors Walters and DC Reynolds)
15. Ivy and Coney because I like people with good senses of humor, retractable roof decks and dirt.
16. Lost & Found because I like good bartenders.
17. Rustik because I remember how much pain they went through before opening. I also like pizza.
18. Petworth Citizen because I like books.
19. The Raven because I like kicking it old school from time to time.
20. Lucky Bar because I like soccer and my memories of dollar beer on Thursday nights.
Ed. Note: I really have a list of 40 but market research has told me that people stop reading after 20 so stay tuned for part two and/or my 20 favorite spots for getting a meal on the run and/or many more arbitrary proclamations.

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.
You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.
It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
