The DC Beer Show

Finish the Week with The Leon Special


Listen Later

Leon Harris was stationed in the military in Holland, came home, started homebrewing, and since then, he’s done just about everything in the beer industry. From brewing to helping build breweries from the ground up, Leon Harris is a beloved figure in our local beer scene.


Jordan sits down with Leon to hear his story of becoming a brewer at Port City and his journey to start Black Cave Brewing, a new Black-owned and Veteran-owned brewery in Prince George’s County. Leon shares which Port City beer he always finishes his day with, aka “the Leon Special,” why he started Black Cave, and the stories behind the Black Cave beers we can expect to see in the future. 


In other news, spring is booming and blooming! We give details on the most exciting upcoming beer events, including the Womxn’s Brew Culture Club and a Belgian Brewers’ Bash
