Space is most likely having a coronary due to the per ounce cost of Bourbon County vs. previous years... but oh it's so good. Sorry fart sound for fueling the machine.

no toasts for you!

The market is getting soo flooded, not sure how 1/2 of these places are going to make it a year or two
NDBC has a some what good location and I imagine their rent is a fraction compared to the restaurants just around the corner in shirlington

none of these places are struggling. DC beer market is the exact opposite of flooded. there's so much more room for growth, but i imagine high rent/high startup costs scare people away.

well you can't compare it to Seattle, that's just not fair
what suck on that map for dc....lots of Gordon Biersch and Sweetwater
but that map is pretty cool
If 100 mile circle around DC, there are about 75 Breweries! (not brewpubs...there are about 200 of those)

well, city vs. city, it's about 40 vs 80. meaning you've got at least 40 more breweries which can open before you start to worry about saturation

Aren't there many more white, middle class bearded beerdos in Seattle than in DC? DC has many more minorities and pussy wine drinkers, hence less craft beer fans.

No closer to the Lube than to Iota.

Pretty small operation, just 15 barrel batches.  There will be no food, but 14 taps and the plan is to have something new on tap every week. Nice industrial inside and the possibility of a nice outside patio (not built yet.

I thought it was illegal in Virginia to run a bar - i.e., an establishment that doesn't meet the required food/alcohol ratio.

well I think the folks in Seattle have a more cultured pallet when it comes to craft beer
so I don't think it's the same
city like that could handle 3 times as much as DC

DC if you don't have bud light on tap....you miss out on 80% of the local residents
