New Columbia Distillers is using DC Brau beer to distill something else. With 65 cases of canned beer only 2/3 full due to a mistake in the canning line, DC Brau co-founder Brandon Skall sent his stock to New Columbia Distillers’ John Uselton to make gin. He expects to produce approximately 15 gallons of the gin, but the final product is not yet decided. Perhaps an unaged white whiskey, or an aged eau de vie — which would mean another 4 to 10 months of preparations.

DC Brau and City Tap House will partner up on the last Sunday each month. The Brau Brunch will feature a tap takeover by us, along with pairings for each of the restaurant's brunch items. The restaurant may create some special beer-inspired dishes to match as well. Reservations are recommended!

March 8th, 2014 - It’s been fan-driven since the beginning. Back in June, D.C. United and DC Brau combined forces to give you a delicious golden ale. Then, we turned it over to you to choose a name. Chris Pontius, Dejan Jakovic and Ethan White heard the top conteders, and after a few laughs, the three chose the winner. Since then, Donald Wine's submission of “the Tradition” has been a huge hit. We heard you all loud-and-clear when you asked for more, and the brewers at DC Brau delivered. You asked for cans, and once again, you have your wish. So, on Monday, we turned it back over to you.

Cans of The Tradition, with the home schedule for 2014, will be available for purchase STARTING MARCH 8TH AT GROWLER HOURS!
