So celebrate tonight at Nanny’s with a DC Brau Tap Takeover!!
“In honor of our 25th anniversary on Sunday we will be kicking off the weekend with an awesome tap takeover from DC Brau on Friday the 13th. Starting at 6pm we will be tapping the DC Brau Pills, El Hefe Speaks, Penn Quarter Porter, And the Corruption.”
I’ve spent many an hour drinking the one whilst in the other. Congrats to both of these institutions!
Ed. Note: DC Brau will have a proper celebration of their own at Rock and Roll Hotel on April 21st. Details on that one here.

We’re also debuting a brand-new Pilsner, Love Cats, in honor of the home opener. It is classic, crisp, clean and–in the northern German tradition–hop-forward, bone-dry, brisk and bitter. It is the perfect baseball beer, and eminently drinkable at 5% abv.
Love Cats is brewed exclusively with Pilsner Malt and Yakima Valley-grown Loral hops. Loral is a newer American varietal that shows classic, German-grown noble hop flavors (floral, earthy, spicy) accompanied by notes of dark fruit. Post-fermentation, this Pilsner is matured in tank for 4 weeks prior to service.
Then, on Friday 4/6/18, we will release cans of Love Cats for our weekly can release.”
Check out the grill menu after the jump. (more…)

“Dear PoPville,
I was at Rinconcito II on Park Rd to pick up some pupusas the other day and noticed that they now carry a full line of El Salvadoran craft beer from the Cadejo Brewing Company. Has anyone tried it? Is it decent?”
1326 Park Road, NW
I know this isn’t beer I just love the photo
Ed. Note: I recognize I’ve been giving Glen’s alotta love lately. That’s because I love them. And the love is warranted. Nothing more nothing less.
While I don’t generally advocate morning drinking, I’m gonna make an exception today for this! The fine folks at Glen’s are offering “All day Wednesday, take a load off at our bars with $2 Port City Brew Optimal Wit” And since Optimal Wit is both delicious and has a relatively low abv of 4.9% – I say go for it! See you there. (2001 S Street, NW in Dupont and 1924 8th Street, NW in Shaw.)
