Time to Restock at De Vinos
Is this your fridge?
While it may be billed as “DC’s fine wine boutique” I have to say that De Vinos, at the corner of 18th and U Streets NW, should be know for its well stocked beer selection.
Take a look at this photo. Have you even heard of, much less consumed all the beers there?
I haven’t and yet I do my fair share of fermentation consumption, worldwide.
So the next time you and the housemate are fighting over the last Blue Moon in the fridge, get a grip. On that beer, I mean, and send the roomie out for more at De Vinos.
Better yet, ask Eddie, the manager, to recommend something exotic.
I highly reccomend the Duvel.
I know I’ve had all but the one labelled “Reserve,” which I can’t completely make out anyways. The rest are pretty much ubiquitous in a decently stocked liquor store. If that’s all there is, I’d go to Cleveland Park instead. Not that there is anything wrong with any of the beers that show up in this photo, though.
That’s just one small section of one fridge. They have a whole wall of exotic brews and another floor fridge with more.
Its not a (at its peak) Brickskeller, but its waaaay better than your standard liquor store selection. And for those of us on this side of the park, closer than Cleveland Park
Best place so far in the District for weird beers is Chevy Chase Wine on Connecticut… enough to keep me comign back for more.
(and yes, it’s a treck for the “townies”)
