Let's dive into a beer-filled adventure with guests Ben Mullet and Michael Spinello, co-founders of DC's newest brewery, Henceforth. The episode kicks off with the usual friendly banter about what everyone is sipping, featuring an impressive lineup of pints from rich ESBs to crisp pilsners.Michael and Ben reveal the inspirations behind Henceforth, sharing their journey from ideation to near opening at their unique space on H Street. They discuss the innovative concept of creating a cozy brewpub atmosphere that feels more like a living room than a warehouse, aiming to bring refreshing change to the local beer scene. The episode brims with frothy excitement about traditional beer styles, nonalcoholic offerings, and a plan to engage a broader audience, including those who prefer cocktails or wine.Our hosts also keep you in the loop with upcoming events like the Maryland Craft Beer Festival and notes on Henceforth's opening timetable. The beer talk is spiced up with a discussion on the challenges of transforming a historical venue into a state-of-the-art brewhouse, and a lighthearted take on frosty descriptions of "microbrews."One important note: Beginning April 22, 2025, new episodes of The DC Beer Show will air at 2:00 p.m. ET every other Tuesday.As always, check out @DCBeer on social media for live updates, exciting developments, and some patio-beer escapades.
