Brickskellar closing?

Anyone else heard this? Friend of a friend thing, I'm just hoping it isn't true. RFD is no match for the Skeller, which, of course, is practically in my Apt. building.
Wow. This would suck. A lot.
Yes, it would.

I can't believe they'd be closing…they're always packed on the weekends and generally seem to do pretty good business during the week. Certainly possible though…
i really doubt it.. a agood friend of mine works there… is tending bar upstairs tonight

she would have said something… i just saw her..


i really don't buy this.. its a dc institution.. it would be a huge loss

i'm sure they'd turn it into a cvs
NRG group that owns Rustico in VA is opening a new place on 14th street where hamburger mary's/dakota cowgirl used to be. The upstairs is going to be a beer bar with 500 bottles, 50 drafts and 5 casks. the beer will be good, fresh, and actually in stock, RFDs and the brickskellar will be unnecessary
Hardly unnecessary. Always nice to have new places to check out, but neighborhood bars are always necessary. Which is exactly what the Skellar is. Not a huge fan of RFD myself.
Wow, I haven't even thought about that place in 10 years. Would be sad to see it go.
Confused.
