Celebrate the Holiday Season with Atlas Brew Works

Washington, DC—Atlas Brew Works is excited to announce special programming for the holiday season including ugly holiday sweater parties, decorative wreath making class, a festive-themed charity 5K with Christmas karaoke, a gift card promotion, and New Year’s Eve gatherings at both Atlas Alexandria and Atlas Navy Yard.

Celebrate Giant Flaming Zombie Polar Bear’s Return with Ugly Holiday Sweater Parties - Saturday, December 7, during normal operating hours

In celebration of Giant Flaming Zombie Polar Bear DIPA’s return, don your ugliest holiday sweater on Saturday, December 7, at all three Atlas Brew Works locations in Alexandria, Ivy City, and Navy Yard to score $1 off all draft beers throughout the day.

Giant Flaming Zombie Polar Bear offers luscious citrus aromas created from a blend of Bravo, Mandarina Bavaria, Chinook, Centennial, and Cascade hops. A sturdy malt backbone balances the assertive hop bitterness and heavy citrus hop character, providing an overall flavor reminiscent of orange marmalade. The subtle heat on the finish is a reminder that this double IPA sits at 9.4% ABV. 

Make-and-Take Wreath Class at Atlas Ivy City - Saturday, December 7 @ 2pm

Elevate your Giant Flaming Zombie Polar Bear DIPA celebration at Atlas Ivy City on December 7 by attending the brewery’s wreath making class in partnership with Cultivate the City. Learn how to make a decorative holiday wreath using freshly harvested materials from urban farms and local partners.
