HMSHost partnered with Maryland’s largest craft brewery, Flying Dog, to develop the brand’s first restaurant concept exclusively for travelers. Flying Dog Tap House’s stimulating menu is grounded in offering local craft beer from one of the state’s most well-known and the largest craft brewery alongside food from Maryland’s Roseda Black Angus Farm. From the food to the visual cues of the décor, Flying Dog Tap House offers a sensory immersion into the culture of the Flying Dog brewery as well as a taste of Maryland’s food and beverage character.
HMSHost’s chefs designed a mouthwatering and exciting menu for Flying Dog Tap House that features ingredients from Roseda Black Angus Farm, a Monkton, MD cattle farm. Many of the dishes incorporate signature Flying Dog beers as a focal ingredient too. For example, “Get Shorty” is a dish that showcases Roseda beef short ribs, braised in Flying Dog’s Snake Dog IPA, then slathered with a BBQ sauce made with their Bloodline Blood Orange Ale.
Fresh from the Frederick, MD brewery, travelers can enjoy a complete lineup of Flying Dog’s most popular beers, on tap or in bottles and cans, like the Numero Uno Agave Cerveza, Gonzo Porter, Doggie Style Pale Ale, Pearl Necklace Chesapeake Stout, as well as seasonal rotations. Travelers can also enjoy several Flying Dog beer cocktails, like the Old Bay® Michelada, and some of Flying Dog’s fellow local craft brews.
Brewing beer in Frederick, MD since 1994, Flying Dog’s story is one that HMSHost and the brewery felt was important to showcase in the first restaurant location of this beloved brand. Guests can learn about Flying Dog’s history through a selection of pictures and prints accentuated by museum-style lighted placards.
