Aslin Alexandria Taproom

Solid place! Outdoor and indoor, although outdoor only has full pours and certain beers. Would like a COVID-safe outdoor space with all the ticks, and even smaller pours. Outdoors is sick AF though, lots of space and cornhole. Indoors, you probably won't get COVID. Very ventilated and not too packed. Good selection, good brewskis.

I've been there a number of times since they opened. It's fine when it's not too packed. Half-pours are fine, but I'm missing the ability to get 3/4oz tasters, especially when they have their "15%"/10% beers on tap. The place has terrible acoustics, even after some adjustments it's just so loud in there. It's strange because other breweries that are large don't seem to have the same kind of issue (Solace for instance is loud, but not LOUD). Employees manning the bar range from really chill to really cold. It can be a mixed bag. Food has been really good the times I've gone. Depending on the number of staff around, getting beer-to-go in the front can be a hassle. Not always, but sometimes. Rare bottles of so-so beer are available and are absurdly overpriced to me, but people drink up that kind of stuff so those prices are here to stay. Happy for their success, but I kind of miss the feel of their original location before it got gutted.

Visited 3/2020. It is pretty near metrostation.. on the map. It takes actually quite long to walk from metro station to brewery and crossing river by walking takes time. Place is big, bright and colourful so it is perfect spot to visit on daylight. Beers were very good and half pours available for tickers were available. Very nice IPAs!

I had no idea this happened! So cool to have a place that is actually open normal hours. Its about 20 minute walk from the nearest metro stop, which isn't terrible. Warehouse location, large open space. tables around, games on the walls. I think there is an outdoor area for warmer weather. largish bar, mercy sales area. The have food; quality was ok. The draw of course is the beer. I ordered a few half pours (no flights as I recall). Tons of options to choose from, starting of course with a variety of IPA's, a Gose or two, and some dark stuff. Quality pretty solid overall. Many of the taps as well as some others available to go, typically in 4 packs of 16 oz cans. A radically more user friendly experience and a great place to hang out. Would be nice if it were a tad closer to the metro, but so be it.

Large place but good service. Lots of beers on tap. No flights but half pours are available. Food I ordered was good but pretty pricey.

Visited Sunday afternoon. Just a few minutes off of 495 if driving. Limited parking situation: limited street parking, parallel parking spots in front of the brewery, and a side parking lot in the back. Most of the parking was occupied but I found one or two open spots in the back of the lot. Definitely could be a challenge parking on busier days/releases. Gift shop is right inside the entrance with bottles, cans, glasses, and other merch. I believe you can close out here too if you're getting stuff to go at the end. Table and upstairs seating to the right, head to the left for the taproom area. Big airy cafeteria style space with picnic and long tables, some side seating/counter space. Very loud with no sound deadening, reminds me of Solace's loud taproom. Hopefully they work on that. Ordering seems a little confusing, I guess you can order anywhere there's bar space but sometimes a line also forms at the right hand register so I just went with that. A dozen or so beers available, menu wasn't totally accurate as a few beers were replaced. Menus are only on paper or you can check their website. A menu board or a couple digital menus would make things easier. Most beers available in full and half pours, a few more limited beers like the barrel projects are only in full pours. Decent beer prices. Didn't try the food but there are a couple appetizers and sandwich options, no sides so sandwiches seems a little expensive. Don't see myself coming back regularly with the current parking and taproom situation, maybe once or twice every couple months but it's worth a stop if you're in the area or live nearby.

Light airy large modern taproom, not industrial looking. Crowdedctoday, their second weekend, and very noisy, lines. Industrial area, I biked, people seem able to manage parking, not far to metro but not a great walk. Really you should bike here, but I didn't see bike parking.

Awesome to finally have a place to drink a fuck ton of Aslin. This place is very new still and isn't brewing on site though the tanks are in the back. Bunch of taps, about 15 when I visited. Busy on first Friday of opening with big lines. Lots of their beer on tap with some experimental. Lines move slow. Food trucks serve the palate. Prices actually a little higher than their beer in Churchkey which is weird. No flights available but full and half pours. Service friendly but lines make it slow. Beer obviously top tier. Congrats on the big open guys!
