Old Town, Alexandria newcomer TJ Stones is set to host one of their first beer dinners with local craft brewer Port City Brewing Company on January 24. TJ Stones has been open for only six months but has already received acclaim for their expansive beer list and classic American fare.
Tickets are only $35 per person plus tax and gratuity. At such a reasonable price, this beer dinner should be a success and a sell-out.
For tickets, call 703-548-1004 or stop by TJ Stones at 608 Montgomery Street, Alexandria, Virginia.

I gotta admit, I live about ten blocks from here and didn’t even know this restaurant had opened up in the old Stardust space. I’m pleasantly surprised by the beer list, though — once you get past the macros junking up their lagers, there are some nice beers in there. (Though someone needs to let them know that Tallgrass comes from Kansas, not Wisconsin.)
Their prices could use some adjusting, though — $12 for a 12 oz. Yeti or a Gubna? Ouch.
What date is the dinner being held?
You’ve really impressed me with that aswner!
