Washington DC Beer Brewers


Notes:
These are pre-1900 Beer Brewers from Washington DC that I don't currently have a bottle for. If you have a bottle from one of these brewers, please send me a photo.
By the way, I make no claims as to the accuracy or completness of this list. It's just something I created from looking through old city directories (which tend to be full of mistakes & typos).
