Two years and a day ago, D.C. hadn’t seen a production brewery in more than half a century.

Tonight at Meridian Pint (3300 11th Street NW), the first of those beer-makers, DC Brau, is celebrating its second anniversary as the District’s homegrown and hoppy beverage company. Since its 2011 launch, DC Brau has become a ubiquitous sight in bars and liquor stores around town. Its three flagship cans, the Public pale ale in red, Corruption India pale ale in green, and Citizen Belgian ale in gold, are beer list regulars, as is a growing rotation of one-off special brews.

Many of those beers will be on the draught list tonight at Meridian Pint, where DC Brau launched in April 2011 with a line that snaked almost a full block down Park Road NW. Among the brews being offered are the three flagships, along with specialties such as the Yonder Cities farmhouse ale, On The Wings Of Armageddon imperial IPA, Colliding Hemispheres brown ale, St. Joseph’s Tripel, El Hefe Speaks hefeweizen, Penn Quarter porter, The Stone Of Arbroath 2012 Scottish ale, and a version of the Citizen aged in grape brandy barrels.

Today, D.C. has three breweries—DC Brau, Three Stars Brewing Company, and Chocolate City Beer—in operation, with a fourth (Atlas Brew Works) set to open early summer, and a fifthbrewpub (Right Proper Brewing Company) coming later this year.

All DC Brau draughts are going for $5 all night, so expect a long line for the boozy celebration.
