The Berliner

"According to social media posts, the Popal Group will accept items at Lapis, its modern Afghan bistro in Adams Morgan, and Georgetown beer hall the Berliner from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Wednesday, August 18, through Friday, August 27 (weekdays only)." - Gabe Hiatt

"More than two dozen draft beers and ciders share the stage with a half-dozen sausages (including chicken, lamb and veal varieties) and falafel sandwiches at this Georgetown spot. Selections range from local D.C., Maryland and Virginia brewers like Solace and DC Brau all the way to producers from Cologne, Germany. Generous outdoor table space fills out the footprint beneath the Key Bridge in Georgetown." - Travis Mitchell

"It’s not just sausage at Georgetown’s new German beer hall the Berliner: the Washington Post’s Maura Judkis visited the modern replacement for Malmaison and found that “grain salad with red quinoa, rye berries, delicata squash and spinach was a surprise hit.” More traditional fare like soft pretzels also had her “scraping every last morsel of cheese out of the cup,” but she deemed salty soy-marinated eggs and dry currywurst a miss." - Adele Chapin

"The incoming 4,200-square-foot beer hall from the owners of critically acclaimed Lapis Bistro in Adams Morgan will feature an events space and a kitchen stuffing sausages in-house." - Tierney Plumb
