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.

Cask at the brewpub. Pours a hazy golden. Head fades almost immediately. Big hibiscus aroma with earth, bread, herbal notes, mild honey and a strong peppery finish. The taste is huge floral notes, strong pepper and mild breadiness. Medium bodied. Nice concept, but needs to be toned back.
