Maybe only relevant to Backlash, but in case others are interested

Jan 13 Rustico will be putting craft beers on all 30 of their taps.

for those who don't know, "craft beer" refers to microbrews.

edit: and i thought Rustico was in VA, not DC. am i out of the loop?

Craft Beer is a larger subset than microbrew.

And it is in VA, but it's the DC area.

1) true, but it's generally from a small, traditional, and independently-owned brewery. I generally associate that with microbrews. But you are correct.
2) fuck you. that's what douchebags from kensington, MD say when they're asked where they're from.
"Oh, I'm from DC."
"Oh really? Which part?"
"Umm..Kensington."
"Oh, where's that?"
"Maryland."
"Soooo...NOT in DC."
"Yeah, but it's the DC area."
"Go fuck yourself and die in a fire, you douche."

I'm still hoping we can claim NoVa and maryland as the 51st state. Then we would just be Columbia, the state.

They have gluten-free pizza there, too, so it's one of the few pizza joints I can take the gf-gf to.

(Actually Pete's Pizza in Columbia Heights completely rocks, too).

Heh. Kind of like Manhattanites and the bridge and tunnel crowd. I’m not so provincial these days. If I can get there on the metro it may as well be DC. Well... kinda.

Thanks for the tip on the 30 crafts on tap. Thats freaking beer heaven.
