The Last Chance does not have Smithwicks (and another post states that
nobody does in the U.S.), but they do have some 50 beers on tap.  I
particularly like the selection of microbrewed beers like Harpoon,
Blue Ridge, Wild Goose and their own Oakland Mills brand.  With each
season comes the speciality beers - now christmas beers, while not as
many as last year (there was an outstanding cherry stout last year),
are still worth the trip.

Take the Broken Land Parkway exit East off of 29.  Left at the first
light, straight through a light and a stop sign.  Turn right just after the
Exxon and park in the lot.  The entrance is hidden to the left of the
shopping center doors.

I manage to make it there one night a week for dinner (decent bar food
plus more sitdown selections) and a sample of the latest seasonal beers.
I recommend it highly.
