This politics-themed bar—with kitschy presidential memorabilia on the wall—is just blocks from the US Capitol, and the after-work crowd is mostly Hill staffers. Patrons sip frothy mugs of ale, stout, lambic, lager, and more from all over the world. Stop in for happy hour—Monday through Friday 4 to 7—to score $1 off beer and rail drinks.
