Sessions run noon to 3 p.m. and 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. General admission is $55 and includes unlimited samples from the brewery lineup, plus live music, a dueling piano bar, and food trucks (food sold separately). The event is rain or shine. It is a 21+ event. No infants, toddlers, or pets. Nationals Park bag rules apply, so plan a clear bag or use Binbox storage outside Center Field Gates.

For a full afternoon or evening of D.C. craft beer inside a major league ballpark, Nationals Park on November 7 is the stop.
