The Washington Post says Aslin Beer Co. makes the D.C. area’s “best and buzziest craft beers!” It’s easy to see why — the Virginia brewery is renowned for incorporating unique ingredients into a wide variety of beer styles. Sous Chef, for example, is a 10% ABV Imperial Stout conditioned on waffles, blueberries, marshmallows, and cacao nibs. Then there’s the How Now Brown Cow series of Milk Stouts, with additions like maple syrup, coffee, baking spices, and even pumpkin! On the lighter side, the brewers explore various Pilsner and Lager styles with different hop and malt combinations. The brewery is even largely known for helping bring the Hazy IPA craze to the region! With favorites like Sensei — an 11.1% ABV Imperial IPA “karate chopped” with Mosaic, Galaxy, and Amarillo Hops — and the wildly popular DDH Neutrino — a 6.4% ABV IPA hopped exclusively with Galaxy — Aslin’s more than proved itself a master of the style.
