“Washington, D.C. is a world-class beer market and we’re honored and excited to add our unique perspective to the mix,” said Andrew Durstewitz, D9 Brewing CEO & Co-Founder. “We’ve spent our first two years developing the science behind our wild fermentation sour program, and now we’re happy to share the fruits of our labor with the Capital.”

D9’s lab program and their considerate use of local ingredients are elements of successful breweries that we rarely see at their age.
