Barrel Oak Winery and Brewery in Delaplane is launching a Washington Commanders-themed beer “to celebrate a new era of football in the DMV area.”
The “Hail to the Harris” Hazy New England India Pale Ale – a nod to new Commanders owner Josh Harris – will be featured Sunday, week 1 of the NFL season. The Commanders host the Arizona Cardinals at 1 p.m., and the brewery is having a watch party from noon to 4 p.m.
“The Washington Commanders have come under new ownership, and we want to celebrate with you! Josh Harris marks the start of a new era for the team, and we could not be more excited,” Barrel Oak states on its website.
Harris, a D.C.-area native, took over ownership from much-maligned owner Dan Snyder earlier this summer. News of the sale set off celebrations around the region.
In April, before the transaction was official, Old Ox Brewery in Loudoun County released the “Bye Dan” India Pale Ale.
