Churchkey update

by admin | Posted in DC   Comments Off

I am told that Churchkey, the upstairs beer bar part of the Logan Circle duo, is set to open tonight at 5 p.m. Birch & Barley, the downstairs restaurant, will open an hour later.

According to the CityPaper, all five casks will be tapped tonight, including Harviestoun Ola Dubh 40, an English ale aged in 40-year whiskey barrels; BrewDog Paradox Isle of Arran, a whiskey-barrel-aged imperial stout; Weyerbacher Imperial Pumpkin Ale; and two others as yet a mystery.

More from CityPaper:

Of the 50 taps, about half will rotate every week or so, while the other half will be good standbys. The dependable session beers include: Victory Prima Pils, Allagash White, Brooklyn Lager, Stone Pale Ale, Smuttynose IPA, Green Flash Hop Head Red, and Climax Nut Brown Ale. $5 for about a 12 oz. glass.
