Understanding and respect for the traditions and techniques of classic brewing coexist at Blue Jacket with a spirit of constant experimentation, innovation, and collaboration that results in delectable beers that highlight seasonality, culinary inspiration, and historical interpretation.

Executive Chef Marcelle Afram oversees the kitchen, which refines and expands on the classic fare found in beer halls and public houses while showcasing the freshest, most locally sourced products available in the area. In the same way that the brewery itself is distinctive, the space that BLUEJACKET occupies is as well. It is one of only a few genuine industrial buildings still standing in Washington, DC. The building, known as the BOILERMAKER SHOPS, was built in 1919 as a part of the Navy Yards Ship and Munitions Manufacturing Complex, and it is one of the few true industrial buildings still standing in the nation's capital.
