Summerfest DC is a celebration of the very best craft beer the world has to offer -- we'll have the very best brewers from the DC region and across America! We've been working closely with all of these breweries to get their rarest seasonals and small batch brews for you to enjoy -- some of these beers will only be available at our festival this Summer!
This year’s final list is below -- you'll see from the listed BeerAdvocate.com ratings that we have a list of really excellent beers overall -- many of them are very rare and seasonal, too!
Some of the beers are very limited and MAY run out in your session. We guarantee each beer will be available at the beginning of each session, so make sure you try anything you have to try sooner than later!
That's not all -- we'll have more than two dozen wines (listed at the far bottom), twelve amazing varieties of cider (all naturally gluten free) plus two additional gluten free hard italian sodas from Bravazzi -- there's truly something for every taste!
