Dupont Circle Beer News

Via Young and Hungry, more information about the concept replacing the Brickskellar in Dupont Circle. The restaurant, which opens tomorrow (12/29) at 6pm, will be called Bier Baron. It will boast a large beer list, but owner Megan Merrifield promises that, unlike the Brickskellar, "every one of them, without question, will be available."

As part of the sale, former Brickskellar owners left Merrifield with about 350 beers (many of which, once gone, won't be restocked by the new ownership). Other changes? Bier Baron emphasizes that they've kept on many of the previous Brickskellar staff (for better or worse). But, look for new and updated menu items from one new staff member: PS7's pastry chef Zak Miller.
