Your Latest Craft Beer Deliveries!


Here are just a few of what's been delivered to our stores this week.  As always, our craft beer departments are very busy, and many items sell out quickly, so be sure to call ahead if you're coming in for something specific.

AleSmith IPA
It’s Pretty Awesome. A San Diego classic, AleSmith IPA showcases the versatility of American hops. Aromas of grapefruit and tangerine lead into an abundance of fresh pine and tropical fruit notes followed by a crisp, resinous bitterness. The complex hop profile is supported by a firm malt presence to create an incredibly flavorful and well-balanced IPA.  7.25% ABV.  This is available at both our Lawrenceville and Woodbridge locations.

Flying Dog Pearl Necklace
Pearl Necklace is brewed with local Rappahannock River Oysters and is the perfect compliment to everyone's favorite aphrodisiac - whether they are grilled, fried, stuffed, or raw.  5.5% ABV. This is available at both our Lawrenceville and Woodbridge locations.


Stone Coffee Milk Stout
We’ve discovered through delicious experimentation the delectably roasty character that comes from adding coffee beans to just about any beer style. For this traditional yet worldly stout, the mild bitterness of the roasted coffee is balanced out brilliantly by milk sugar, adding a touch of sweetness and creaminess. Cheers to the artful coalescence of two highly artisanal mediums.  5% ABV.  This is available at both our Lawrenceville and Woodbridge locations.


Stone Xocoveza
Harmoniously layered with cocoa, Mostra coffee, pasilla peppers, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg and milk sugar, this beer is an insanely delicious take on Mexican hot chocolate. Thanks entirely to you and fan demand, it has gone from being a one-time offering to a yearly tradition too special to skip. Feel free to enjoy it long into the winter months because this festive beer will age beautifully and is definitely not exclusive to the holidays!  8.1% ABV.  This is available at both our Lawrenceville and Woodbridge locations.



Ommegang Game of Thrones: Valar Dohaeris
After an exciting season that saw the Starks reclaim the North and Cersei take the Iron Throne as the first queen of Westeros, Brewery Ommegang and HBO Global Licensing are introducing a new beer and bringing back a previous brew to steady the nerves of fans as they anxiously endure the show’s off-season break. Valar Dohaeris Tripel Ale is the latest beer in the series and pays homage to Arya’s season-long struggles within and around the House of Black and White.  Valar Dohaeris Tripel Ale is, much like a “faceless man,” not what it first appears to be; it shares the complexity of its sister-brew, Valar Morghulis Dubbel, and a strength masked and belied by its lighter color. 9% ABV.  This is available at both our Lawrenceville and Woodbridge locations.

21st Amendment Toaster Pastry
Our first beer out of our new brewery is an homage to its former life as a toaster pastry factory. Biscuit malts give the beer a slightly nutty, crust-like flavor, while pale and dark Crystal malts create the mouthfeel and flavors reminiscent of strawberry jam. Calypso and other experimental hops give this ruby ale a welcome bite, plus a few more in the hop back for a toasty-sweet aroma. 7.6% ABV.  This is only available at our Lawrenceville location.

New Holland Dragon's Dragon's Milk Chai
Combines robust malt character with the luxurious nuance of sweet Chai. Aged in white-oak bourbon barrels, Vanilla Chai Dragon’s Milk is a concert of luscious flavors.  11% ABV.  This is only available at our Lawrenceville location.

Forgotten Boardwalk Pocket Trick
Medium body with hints of peach, mango, and citrus. Mosiac hops help shin through, allowing this pick pocket to sneak up on you.  8.5% ABV.  This is only available at our Woodbridge location.
