DC Brau is the king of craft beers in D.C., leading the pack with about 10,800 barrels sold last year.
Why it matters: Despite a slump in the craft brewing market nationally, some local brewers saw sales go up.
By the numbers: While ranked #1 in sales, DC Brau Brewing Company saw a 5% sales decline from 2023 to 2024, per data from the Brewers Association.
Based in Northeast, DC Brau unveiled its first brew in 2011, becoming D.C.'s first manufacturing brewery since the 1950s.
