Unpopular opinion: the best brewery in the DMV doesn’t have a taproom.
4 years of Liquid Intrusion, built by Jasmine, Mike, and Drew. They’ve been outside all 4 of them.
When nobody would say yes during the pandemic, Oliver Brewing Company did. They took a chance on a contract brand when everything was uncertain.
LIBCO went against the grain with 3 flagships: African Queen and Her 7 C’s IPA, South of DC Cream Ale, and Saison du Zest Lemongrass Saison. Plus the collaboration liquids have been out of this world, IYKYK!
LIBCO then hit the road, self distro from Frederick to Lexington Park, DC, and Ocean City once a month for a year and a half, until a legendary partnership between and Liquid Intrusion carried us into Delaware.
We teamed up with The W**e Concierge Club and so drinkers across the country could taste the liquid.
The liquid took us places: Norman, Oklahoma, Pittsburgh, Philly, New York, New Orleans, Atlanta, Youngstown, Columbus.
Our liquid became the official b**r of the CIAA Basketball Tournament. For two Johnson C. Smith University Smithites, that was a dream come true.
You’ve helped us to became a Sam Adams Brewing the American Dream Experienceship finalist.
The 4th year has been trying, health, inventory... but through it all, we still prevail!
This was never just about us, it’s bigger than any one person. In 4 years we’ve built a community that’s more than people. To Jasmine, Mike, and Drew, you’re family.
Every face in these slides: the managers who said “I’ll take a keg or a case,” the bartenders who poured the liquid, the stores that stocked it, the festival and event coordinators who invited them to pour, the drinkers who chose it.
We’re re grateful for every single one of you.
Prince George’s County’s first Black-owned brewery. No taproom, just legendary liquid, celebrating four years of legendary times with legendary people and legendary places.
A sincere thank you! 🙏🏾
May the liquid always prevail! 🚀
Send this to your b**r person.
