Washington, DC (Jan. 1st) The Hand Crafted Tasting Company is proud to announce that the DC Craft Beer Festival comes to the DC’s Walter E. Washington’s Convention Center on Saturday, March 8th for two sessions, one in the afternoon, and one in the evening.  The Spring Seasonals tasting will showcase spring releases from 75 of America’s best Craft Breweries, with a special focus on Breweries from DC, Maryland, and Virginia.

There will be approximately 150 selections, along with wonderfully prepared food designed specifically to be consumed while enjoying the tasting sessions from DC restaurants, Hawk ‘n’ Dove, Senart’s Oyster & Chophouse, and Willie’s Brew and Q.

A small sampling of the 150 Craft Beers on the main floor include Wild Wolf Blonde Hunny, Starr Hill Grateful Pale Ale, Duck Rabbit Milk Stout, Atlas Brew Works Rowdy, Terrapin’s Hopsecutioner & Dogfish Head’s Midas Touch.

Tickets are on-sale now at CraftBeerFestDC.com/tix, and you can get updates from the festival on Twitter at @DCCraftBeerFest.

“Local breweries in the Washington area are creating delicious beers, and we want to bring this to people’s attention,” said Ken Tesler, Founder, Hand Crafted Tasting Co. “The DC Craft Beer Festival, just like the festival we produce in New York City, is a true celebration of the American craft beer experience. We invite the country’s best craft brewers to come together at one time, in one place, so attendees can sample a carefully curated selection of the best Spring seasonal beers that the brewers have to offer. We know DC is thirsty for amazing craft beer, just as they are in New York City, “ Tesler said.

During the event, leading Craft Beer experts will host intimate, 50-person, first-come, first serve, seminars, and many brewers’ representatives will be available at the taps to educate the guests about their liquid offerings.

VIP and Connoisseur ticket holders can enter the Convention Center one hour earlier than the GA Ticket holders and have access to the beer, the brewers and the food during this first hour. This is a great time to speak with some of your favorite brewer representatives and avoid what is expected to be a sold-out, capacity audience later in the day.
