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.

One 4oz draft pour and one 4oz cask pour at Mad Fox. Poured a nice orange color, hazier on the cask. Fluffy, foamy off-white head. Aroma was nice floral citrus notes. Flavor was light citrus, more orange notes in the cask. Flavor was nice, crisp, tasty. Nice enough.

Rich, super hazy deep brown coloured body with a very thin, single centimetre tall light brown head and a touch of oil on top as well. Aroma of pungent, deep oak, alcohol, bourbon, brown sugar and even some vanilla - very strong and nice for the style. Full-bodied; Strong rich malt, earth, peat, smoked grain, alcohol, bourbon, vanilla, brown sugar and molasses flavours throughout with a particularly strong peaty and toffee flavour that seems to last for a few minutes after a sip. Aftertaste shows the bourbon very well, some honey, grain, alcohol, rich vanilla and molasses and way more bourbon with the roasted malt and raisin flavours. Overall, a nice and rich beer that shows its flavours well and the malt even better. Worth trying if you can find this, and iβm glad I did! I sampled this ten ounce pour on draught at Whole Foods in Pentagon City (Arlington), Virginia at the end of my driveway on 12-November-2016 for US$6,00.
