Best place to buy craft beer in DC. They have a wide selection of local brews, craft beers from across the US, and international beers as well as cider, wines, and craft liquors. The staff are super helpful and are always happy to answer any questions or help you find something as well as give recommendations.
I come here to satisfy my need for beers that are typically not well stocked elsewhere, or are only available elsewhere seasonably. To my surprise, for a specialty and bottle shop, prices are competitive. When stocking up on my favorites, I like to support a locally owned franchise, rather than a grocery store, so its nice that they reciprocate with hanging prices the same or close to same as big competitors. Give this a shot if youre a beer drinker!
Amazing place, and always a joy to visit. Very knowledgeable staff that is always willing to help you find new beers based off of your tastes. You can buy single cans to try things out, or get a 4/6-pack for those you love. They have a great selection of local DMV beers, as well as other large and small craft breweries from across the US and the world. They also have a fantastic selection of ciders and seltzers.
Excellent selection, cant wait for the beer advent calendars to drop!
Thank you for supporting the troops while we were down there. Also great service and food. Thank you guys.
Honestly don’t consider myself a beer person, but the ability to buy speciality beers one at time to taste test makes a huge difference to me as a consumer. I’ll happily pay more for one to see if I like it before I’d buy a 6 pack.Also, if you want help they’ll help you, if you go in minding your own business they leave you alone.The way retail should be!
Love this place! They have a great selection of craft beers and ciders as well as some liquor options from local DC distillers. My favorite part is that you can make your own 6-pack. It’s honestly fun just to walk around, look at the “can art”, and ask the friendly staff for their recommendations.
Lots to choose fromHelpful suggestions
Great selection of beer with many different styles from different brewery’s to pick from.Best thing is, you can either get them in the 4 and 6 packs or buy the single can. Prices were reasonable as well.
Great selection!
They’re not a warehouse for sure, but they aren’t overly precious either. Really cool selection. Staff is genuinely helpful in helping you through styles or regions you’re not familiar with. Great place to pick up gift beers, especially fun, unique, high quality bombers. Wish I had different commuting route to make stops here more frequent. They are even very generous in packaging up your purchase for walking it home.
Great selection of beer. Kind and knowledgeable staff. They have hosted nearly weekly virtual beer and food pairings during the pandemic, which have been very fun. Highly recommend.
The thing to remember about craft beer cellar is that the beer is fine: they often have big release beers fresh, and they have some oddities. but everyone who works there is the biggest NOVA tool of all time. They think they know a lot more about beer than they do, and they never believe you know anything about beer--unless you are also a NOVA tool. Its worth getting much crappier beer across the street to not have to deal with the folks behind the counter.
Amazing selection, fun events (even virtual!), and fantastic customer service
Great selections!
Will not patronize this business they do not value their community and deny black customers service.
Really great selection of beers! Lots of local and non-local and the beer is organized to help find the local stuff. They also have some local liquor as well. Helpful and friendly staff. Best place in the area to buy beer. Definitely worth coming to if you are looking for some good beers.
Good beer
Awesome beer selection! Cheers! 🍻
Best place to buy beer in DC! I love it and go regularly. I love that you can buy by the can and mix it up. I always walk out with awesome beers from the best breweries in the nation. Everyone is as helpful as possible as well!
Great selection. Great staff.
Great selection and knowledgeable staff.
Great place for craft beer drinkers. This is my favorite place to get good beer for a good price.
Best selection of beer on capitol hill. Also great recommendations and check out the tasting events.
Cool store with great variety of craft beer, from local & US breweries. Neat selection of some local liquor too. ❤️ beer advent calendar last year!
Great beer selection and the lady who was working was helpful! She helped us pick out a couple local hazy IPAs that were worth trying! We were happy with our purchase. This place is worth checking out.
Super cool beer store. The workers are always so helpful and know their stuff! They do a lot of promos and different highlights of breweries. The prices are reasonable as well! They always have what we are looking for
Excellent options.
Amazing selection and knowlegable staff.
I go here to get amazing seasonal beers. They have such a wide variety and the staff is so knowledgeable! They even have a rewards program. I like the range of products that they have and I always visit when Im in that area.
Craft Beer Cellar DC looks fancy enough to over charge you for beer, but dont judge this shop by its store front. Its one large room with beer and cider organized by the region in which it comes from. A few reasons why this store deserves a four star rating:1) They have a large selection of beer from all around the country and nation. If you like craft beer, youll find some great options here.2) You can buy beer by the bottle and mix and match anything in the store.3) If youre on a budget, you can find options that are reasonable.4) They have a bigger than normal cider selection! If you like sweet, I recommend Austins Honey Texas Cider.If you know youll frequent the cellar, sign up for their rewards program!
Great selection of local and regional beers! I love that I can mix and match.
The ladies there were super helpful. They new about the specific types of beer I was searching for. The store is organized and clean. Its a cool spot! 10/10
A terrific selection of IPAs, pilsners and other brewed refreshments. This jewel at the edge of the bustling H street corridor boasts a number of local breweries too. The staff is attentive and friendly, also happy to provide recommendations. Next time you’re headed to a party be sure to stop by.
Best selection of craft beer in DC at reasonable prices. Staff is very, very knowledgeable and down to Earth. They even have tastings on the weekends sometimes. You can get beer cold as well.
Very friendly and knowledgeable staff, unbelievable selection of beer for this area. I love Craft Beer Cellar DC!
Great selection. They had what I was looking for. Super friendly service. Pricey but I dont know what to compare it to since I havent bought beer in the District in a while.
Helpful and friendly staff. Prices are on par for craft beer. Decent selection.
Excellent excellent craft beer selection. Amazing owner and super knowledgeable staff! Great gem in the city.
Good selection of beers and several ciders with a friendly, helpful, and reasonably knowledgeable staff. The store is broken up mostly by region, although not exactly, so if youre looking for a specific type of beer it may be next to something completely different on the shelf. Its not particularly cheap, and there are some offerings where youd get a better price across the street at the Giant, but the low end is still around $10 for a six pack. A big plus is that you can mix and match together a six-pack from the entire store, so tasting a lot of different beers is easy.My chief complaint would be that the pricing system is a bit of a mess. Handwritten numbers written directly on the shelf are not easily legible, and due to the number different bottle/can sizes, 6-packs versus 4-packs, it is extremely difficult to compare prices without closely checking each product. Since the store is sorted by region, not by type, its quite cumbersome to compare the price of a Belgian ale from Belgium with a Belgian ale from the East Coast. Pricing per ounce would be extremely helpful. However, they have just opened recently, so I can only assume that a more sophisticated labeling system is in the works.
I used this place for Bag BNB storage. But the staff was great. Communicated really well. The shop was quite beautiful as well only downside is that they close at 8 I think.
Great selection of local, domestic, and European beers. Everything available by the bottle at a modest markup, nice for sampling. Staff knowledgeable and friendly.
Great selection, good prices, and friendly, knowledgeable staff. Always something new and fun. Ask about releases and what crowlers are available.
Great bomber and rare beer selection! Can order kegs as well. Always has a great selection of local liquors available
We were visiting DC and wanted to try some local beers. We were able to mix and match some beer singles so that we could try lots if beer on a budget. Excellent selection and very helpful staff!
Admittedly Im a beer novice but it had a nice selection, staff was really helpful, its in a great neighborhood, and pricing was fair. Nice shop.
For a small store, they have a decent selection, mostly favoring local beers over foreign ones. But they had a few interesting foreign selections too, for Belgium and Germany.
Very good selection. Knowledgeable staff. Get really good craft beer from all over the US
Great selection. Belgians well represented.
Great store with an expertly curated selection. Staff clearly loves this stuff and is always happy to answer questions or make recommendations.Theyve recently started to add craft liquor as well.
Good selection. local brews have their own shelf. colds available. check it out
Good prices, great selection but the cashier literally coughed on me four times as I checked out. Four times. No excuse me, nothing, like its ok.
Selection is superb. Almost the whole store is mix and match. They set limits for limited releases, which increases your chance of trying some really great stuff without the restaurant mark up. You may think up to $4+ for a can of beer is a lot, but think what you would pay for a rare craft beer at a bar!
Great selection of beers. Super helpful staff. As a Canadian shopping for beer in the states, this place makes me salivate.
Some might be disappointed. But I felt it was extremely well curated, with many hard to find selections. No they didnt have every rare and obscure thing there, but they had a lot. And they had things people are interested in, rather than some obscure Doppelbock no one outside of Germany has ever had.
Best place in DC to buy craft beer, period. They get special drops that nobody else gets too. Very friendly and helpful, as well.
Awesome little craft beer store! I was visiting from out of town and had a rare request for them, even though they didnt have it the woman pointed me in the best directions for choices and she was very knowledgeable and nice.
Amazing selection of beers with an equally amazing team. Erica was tremendously helpful in putting together beers for an upcoming exam. An absolute must for all beer geeks.
This place is awesome and the staff have great customer service. Their bagbnb service is very professional and efficient!
This place is the best place to buy beer in the DMV. They will match prices (but I havent seen better pricing elsewhere), they have tastings from breweries near and far most weekends, and have a great selection and knowledgable staff!
Good selection. More expensive than necessary. The more common items can be found at a 25% lower price across the street at Safeway.
Its a great selection and the staff is knowledgeable. Its notably pricey though.
This craft beer store is part of a nationwide chain but they do bring in some solid out of market beers from time to time. They have regular free beer tastings on the weekend as well.
Erica was friendly and helpful, great selection of craft beer
Not the largest place or selection but they are very helpful in finding what you are looking for.
Nice little shop on H Street that has beer, cider, mead and a little hard liquor. Kind of a boutique beer store, with attentive, friendly service. They often have brewery reps giving tastings (3 out of my last 3 visits).One nice touch is that they allow breaking up 4- and 6-packs, so you can get just one or two of something to try (which I quite like). They also can log your purchases by phone number, so can tell you what youve previously purchased, allowing you to either re-purchase or avoid things depending upon how you liked it.The one drawback is due to the small footprint, they have a somewhat limited selection. Not their fault; they cram it pretty full (reminiscent of the Village Pump in College Park). Id like to see them in a space 3-4 times larger!
Excellent selection and service, assortment well displayed and easy to survey, plenty of lagers and pilsners to choose from, not just IPAs. My wife appreciated the wine choices.
Great owners and the best beer selection in NE DC. Bring your empty cases for a few cents off!
Great beer selection. Very friendly and extremely knowledgeable staff.
Unmatched craft beer selection in DC.
Great rotating selection of beers. A smaller selection of refrigerated beer.
Very knowledgeable of local beers and regional ones two
Excellent selection, friendly staff, amazing variety, especially of breweries in the DMV.
Incredibly helpful and knowledgeable staff. Excellent selection of brews given the small space.
Tons of great beer. Helpful and friendly staff.
Stayed in an air bnb in DC and this place filled my craft beer craving without having to hunt around.Beer by the bottle or by the pack.
Great selection of craft beer, friendly staff, easy to find. Highly recommend
Best craft beer place I have ever been to.
Knowledgeable people, good prices
Awesome selection of beers and right on H street. The staff are very knowledgeable and friendly.
When you want to explore creat beer but dont want to commit to a sixer of a single beer, come to craft beer cellar! You can grab a mixed six of any beer in the place! If that wasnt enough, they do a beer advent calendar every year! Love it!
Truly a Mecca for beer lovers rivaled by no other in Washington DC.Ive enjoyed nerding out with their staff about craft brews, fun pairings, and other simply joys of life, the universe, and everything.
Great selection of beers. I love that you can mix and match everything.
This is my favorite local beer store, and its one of the best in the entire DC region. Single bottle/can pricing so you can try lots of stuff.
Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Solid selection. I like this beer store.
The staff is knowledgeable and the beer selection is amazing
Helpful staff and great selection
The best selection of hard to find beers around.
Good selection, not mind-blowing, but better than most.
Nice selection of craft beer from both near and far.
Its a make your own six pack store!
Good selection of beers from many placesBeers I have not seen at other stores nearbyHelpful staffGood pricesCan buy individual can and bottle than packNice accessories
Great selection (especially local breweries) and super helpful staff.
Pretty good, pricy, but they let you buy individual beers rather than a whole pack if you want to just try something new. A nice selection of German, Dutch, and Belgian stuff.
Amazing customer service and great beer selection. Im not even a beer drinker but Ill be going back again!
Really good beer selection. Good customer services.
Helpful, friendly, knowledgeable staff. Great selection.
