, one of the District’s first modern breweries, is shuttering after nearly a decade. There was no reason cited for the closure.

What started as a backyard experiment with a home-brewing kit, turned into a hot spot for DC beer lovers. Founders Dave Coleman and Mike McGarvey opened the brewery in 2012 after purchasing a 40,000-gallon walk-in freezer for $1.35. Since then, they’ve grown their beer list to 200-plus options and been named “DC’s Best Local Brewery” bywhen it was just two guys, a couple of volunteers, and a fraction of the size it is today.

“3 Stars was a special part of the DC beer scene and you will be missed,” Union Craft Brewing, a Baltimore brewery, replied to 3 Stars’ tweet announcing the closure.Washington City Paper food editor Laura Hayes. “Your community spirit and relentless experimentation will be sorely missed.” You haven’t missed your opportunity to have another 3 Stars brew just yet as they will continue wholesale sales for a little bit longer. You can also get 50 percent off barrel-aged bottles and 20 percent off cans to-go all weekend long before the taproom closes its doors for good on Sunday night.
