Located in the Alexandria Commons shopping center on the right side as you're turning in (facing north). The beer section is on the right front side of the building. I was a little dissapointed to see a beer shelf so close to the front store windows. I'm sure most of the beer is fine, but if a clear bottle was set there it would be at risk of skunking.

The selection breaks down into mostly 22oz/750ml bottles (along with a few rare larger sizes) along with a few 500ml/330ml bottles, and six packs. There aren't very many 12oz singles because the six packs aren't broken. There are a lot of rare beers mixed in with the usuals.

At the time I was there a beer tasting was going on with a good selection of beers such as Rogue's 2008 Brewer's Ale and the '08 Stone Vertical Epic. There was a person there that was very knowledgeable about the beer, and could offer help.

A great selection. I wish I was closer to this place. If you're looking for something very rare this is probably the best place to stop in the greater D.C. area (as far as I know).

The store is just a few blocks off of Interstate 95, at about 6 o’clock on Washington’s beltway, in a strip mall to the right of a grocery store.

Enter the store and the craft beer is immediately on the right. The selection is incredible with *some* singles available. I believe they offer case discounts.

It’s a cool place with all kinds of gourmet doo-dads, a cheese counter in the back and chocolates. The prices are attractive. The store is spotlessly clean and just a touch crowded… but hey, they have a great selection.

This place is worth a detour.
