DC Brau wakes up and smells coffee; Port City in St Pat's Parade

DC Brau, fresh off its release of a very good Thyme After Thyme seasonal ale, took over taps this week at Churchkey and debuted its newest creation, the Penn Quarter Porter, made in collaboration with the MadCap Coffee Company, a Grand Rapids MI company that will open a location in DC in the near future.

We also visited Port City for the first time two weekends ago during the Saturday afternoon tasting session and spoke with Bill Butcher, the owner and Jon Peters, one of the brewers. Bill comes from the wine business, while Jon is a former U.S. State Department employee. PC just celebrated its one year anniversary and has grown very quickly in that time.

The brewery will be entering a float into the Alexandria St. Patrick's Day Parade.
