Description
Mad Fox Brewing Company launched in July 2010 with the opening of our European-style Gastro Brewpub in Falls Church, VA, which also houses our brewery.

In August 2015, the Mad Fox Taproom opened in the Glover Park neighborhood of Washington, DC. We're proud to provide a unique dining experience that pairs our handcrafted, award-winning beer with an appealing menu created in a scratch kitchen using locally-sourced and sustainable products whenever possible. All of our craft beers are brewed on-site using the finest ingredients sourced from across the country and internationally as well. Taste the difference with our appealing brewpub menu featuring hand-tossed artisan pizzas, creative burgers, signature frickles, weekly specials and more. Our 63-foot bar serves as the centerpiece of the brewpub where we showcase up to ten standard, house-brewed draught beers on tap as well as a rotating selection of seasonal brews in German, English, Belgian and American styles. Taste our cask conditioned proper Real Ales served through water-jacketed Angram beer engines which ensure that every pint is served at properly conditioned cellar temperatures.

Full draft pour, in snifter at the Mad Fox Brewpub. Poured a very slightly hazy golden yellow color with a white head. Aroma was sweet pineapple. This lacks a little bit of the saison funk notes that I was hoping this would end up having. Light floral notes.

Half-pint cask pour at Mad Fox, Falls Church. Poured a very dark black color with some ruby notes. More head than usually find in cask beers, small tan head. Aroma was a lot like the base beer, dark chocolate, caramel malts, ton of vanilla comes through, with toasted coconut. Flavor was similar, lots of vanilla bean, toasted coconut, cocoa nibs. Nice, alcohol is pretty well masked.
