Sauf Haus Bier Hall & Garden has become synonymous with beer in the district for our love of water, barley, hops, and yeast! We at Sauf Haus believe in Reinheitsgebot and Biergesetz- sometimes called the "German Beer Purity Law". In English, it's translation is a regulation concerning the production of beer in the Holy Roman Empire and its successor state, Germany. In the original text, the only ingredients that could be used in the production of beer were water, barley and hops. Today, we still celebrate the pure taste of German beer with our 16 German Drafts on tap all the time in the heart of Dupont Circle! Aside from our amazing beer selection, we also specialize in German favorites such as our famous Bavarian Soft Pretzels that can range anywhere from a personal size to our notorious 2 pound pretzel. With other snacks including Bauernwurst, Debreziner-Pork, and Beef Brisket Sliders- you'll never be at a loss for tasty eats at Sauf Haus. With our seasonal beertail list, giant pretzels, and a gorgeous outdoor space with long communal tables, we stick true to everything you could ask for in an authentic Bier Hall! Available for events and celebrations, host your next party with us in good taste and fun! With up to 450 guests, we can cater to you for parties both big and small. For after work drinks to a special event, come see how the German celebrate at Sauf Haus Bier Hall & Garden!
