What's Your Name Mean?
"Want to play a game?" Used to be our response, but because of our growth and your support we're adding this link to ease your curiosity. No, it's not an acronym. Yes, it is a name! But it's not a combination of ours. In fact, Andrew and Kai are brother-in-laws. Each married to 2 of 3 sisters. Richard's brother is married to the third. And Voila! There it is! We are all family by marriage and bond. Oh, and the name.... is the girl's maiden name! Brownie points

Not sure about jolly rancher inspired. Some candy maybe but doesn't come off super well. Golden pour with decent head. Light tangy end. Meh. Tap at Herndon location.

A tropical tart juice bomb! Amazing, cheers Kevin on the recommendation! Best thing I’ve had in a long time.

Can, at the March 2025 DCBeer share. Poured a nearly pitch black color with a small off-white head. Aroma was roasted malts, chocolate. Bitter chocolate, malt. Light woody notes. Nice Baltic porter!

Big bold galaxy fruity hits of passionfruit, tangerine, grapefruit, peachy notes, medium sweet across underlaying soft sweet malts in support, medium body, light bitter edged robust hoppy finish. Lovely.

Marshmallow and caramel. Booze and bourbon. Lots of chocolate. Syrupy black pour without much head. Syrup sweet finish with a light hint of bitter roast. Consistent with most of the sugar bomb high abv pastry stouts Aslin does now. Wish they'd go back to OG Mexican Hot chocolate. Tap at Herndon location.

Roast and a little nut, light coffee. Solid dry stout. Black pour without much head or lacing, a shortcoming given style. Light bitter end.
