2. Boscos Restaurant & Brewing Company, Germantown, TN
3. Gordon Biersch Brewery Restaurant, Memphis, TN

4. District Chophouse & Brewery, Washington, DC

5. Capitol City Brewing Company, Washington, DC (Downtown DC location)
6. Capitol City Brewing Company, Washington, DC (Capitol Hill location)
7. John Harvard's Brew House, Washington, DC
Of the seven listed above Kellys, District Chophouse and Capital City -Downtown are still open. Boscos, Gordon Biersch, and John Harvard’s are still in business, but not at the locations that I visited. The Capitol City – Capitol Hill location has also closed.
By current standards, this does not seem like much; however, in those days, laws made it more difficult to open small breweries. Therefore, there were not as many breweries to visit.
