This year, a few breweries packaged some lagers in addition to Oktoberfests:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Atlas<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">1500 South Capital &#8211; originally brewed for Nationals Park, these are sold in tallboy cans year round. I pick them up at Ace Beverage in Tenleytown were the legendary Joe Riley works and typically order a draft when I&#8217;m at the ballgame.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">District Common &#8211; Decent grocery store availability in cans &#8211; I&#8217;ve seen them at Harris Teeter. Also, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BaCRVM_huKU\/\"><strong>the National Museum of Natural History cafeteria<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">DC Brau<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Old Heurich &#8211; I picked the annual release of the preprohibition lager based on the Heurich brewing company that used to be at the location of the Kennedy Center. I&#8217;d buy it year-round if I could.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Savor the Swill &#8211; This might be my favorite of the local lagers and it certainly my wife&#8217;s. I also get this from Joe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Oktoberfest &#8211; This year, they are in 12 oz. cans instead of the tallboys, but I also get some. It&#8217;s hoppier than a lot of &#8216;fests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Port City<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Oktoberfest &#8211; This year, these have been plentiful on store shelves, at least in Alexandria. I waited until September 1 and then it got hot and I went back to gin and tonics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rauch Lager &#8211; It&#8217;s only available at the brewery, so I have not had a chance to sample this new beer that probably isn&#8217;t named after the tallest player in MLB history, the <em>fan-friendly<\/em> Jon Rauch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">MIA<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lost Rhino isn&#8217;t packaging their Rhinofest which I really enjoyed <a href=\"\/website_3c1e0e40\/2015\/02\/beltwyland-beer-4-years-in-plus-riggo-red-bull-vs-old-ox-minus-chocolate-city.html#oktoberfest\"><strong>in 2014<\/strong><\/a>.

He would show up at parties with &#8220;old dad beers&#8221; like Schlitz and Old Milwaukee because that&#8217;s what &#8220;old dads&#8221; drank. He didn&#8217;t bother with a ribbed white tank top though. Thankfully. Anyhow, while I was at State Line Liquors in Elkton, Md. on the way down the Shore this summer, I asked if they had the beer my dad drank when I was a kid &#8211; Schaefer! They did. I can why it was the &#8220;beer to have when you were having more than one&#8221; it&#8217;s pretty drinkable if bland. They might as well say that &#8220;no hops were harmed in the brewing of this beer.&#8221; It pairs well with Taylor Ham though.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A meetup I went to had a bunch of Baltimore beers and one that used to be from there &#8212; National Bohemian. It&#8217;s no Schaefer, not as sweet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">BeltwayLand Brewing twitter list<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/doubleuefwhy\/lists\/beltwayland-beer\">ever-growing Twitter list<\/a> of breweries from D.C., Northern Virginia and a little bit of Maryland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a class=\"twitter-timeline\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/doubleuefwhy\/lists\/beltwayland-beer\" data-widget-id=\"599967055882932225\">Tweets from https:\/\/twitter.com\/doubleuefwhy\/lists\/beltwayland-beer<\/a> <script>!function(d,s,id){var js,fjs=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0],p=\/^http:\/.test(d.location)?'http':'https';if(!d.getElementById(id)){js=d.createElement(s);js.id=id;js.src=p+\":\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\";fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js,fjs);}}(document,\"script\",\"twitter-wjs\");<\/script><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That&#8217;s all for now, prost!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Washington, D.C.\/Northern Virginia oktoberfests, local lagers and places to enjoy beer outside in the early fall.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":26041,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[11,29],"tags":[219,248,251,263,541,563,1050,1308,1312,1487,1551,1887],"class_list":["post-25763","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-beltwayland","category-food-and-drink","tag-atlas-brew-works","tag-beer","tag-beltwayland-beer","tag-beverages","tag-dc-brau","tag-devils-backbone-brewing-co","tag-lost-rhino-brewing-co","tag-oktoberfest","tag-old-ox-brewing","tag-port-city-brewing-co","tag-robert-portner-brewing-co","tag-virginia-beer"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>BeltwayLand beer &amp; beyond: Local lagers - William F.
