Cabinet Artisanal Brewhouse
Microbrewery in Alexandria, Virginia, United States 🇺🇸
Established in 2011
Closed in 2012
Brewery Announcement:
We are more-than-excited to announce the addition of our 5bbl Brewhouse in Alexandria, VA. Cabinet Artisanal Brewhouse is located in the same building as the former Shenandoah Brewery, just outside of Washington, D.C.
Terry Hawbaker, a 7 year veteran of Bullfrog Brewing, is our Brewmaster. With our special house yeast, will be focusing on making “primitive field” beers in our urban farmhouse brewery. A field beer can be defined as a grisettes, saisons, traditional lambics, etc… Terry has always had a fondness for reinventing European-style Farmhouse ales. Terry is by no means a traditional brewer, and he thrives by mixing up new and old brewing techniques. Barrel aging is certainly in the works, as this is an area where Terry has produced some of his most successful beers.
