They're still around? I haven't been there in years! Their beer was good, but everything was overprices, IIRC.

Don't forget in DC you've got the Brickskellar restaurant by Dupont Circle that has a huge selection of beers (like 800 or so), and several really good bars in and around Georgetown and Foggy Bottom.
Capitol City is very good, depending on their seasonal selections. They have four locations, I believe, one of them being in Inner Harbor in Baltimore. The other locations are Arlington, Capitol Hill, and Downtown, according to their site. Their website is http://www.capcitybrew.com/ If you sign up for their email list, they'll send you coupons for your birthday and things.

If you aren't familiar with Troegs, their Dreamweaver Wheat is my favorite...and their seasonal selections are always great choices.
Are you attending the DC Do on July 7? I live outside of Harrisburg currently, and get to Troeg's on a somewhat-frequent basis. We're more of Appalachian Brewing Company fans, since they have brew-pubs, but...
