Brickskeller Re-Opens As “Bier Baron”

December 30, 2010 By Jay Brooks

brickskeller-1
The Brickskeller is now re-opened, only a week after it changed hands. The original name was reported to be “Rock Creek,” but according to D.C.’s Young & Hungry blog, that name was already taken and eventually they settled on the “Bier Baron” as the new name. A new canopy sign won’t be up until Friday, followed by more improvements and, presumably, a new website in the coming weeks.

New owner Megan Merrifield expects to “have 500 different beers, and every one of them, without question, will be available.” 350 were bequeathed by Dave and Diane Alexander and the rest will be sourced by Merrifield and her new crew, a few of which are employees who worked for the Brickskeller.

Local TV station, Channel 9 News Now, also has a short video report:

    I think I’ll give it a week to get settled down and go check it out. Thanks for the report!

    Wow. Miss Merrifield is the kind of entrepreneur I don’t like. Nothing like doing research BEFORE you buy.
