Common Questions About The Guide

What is it?

Think of our passport book as your insider’s guide to discounts. Each booklet features 42 deals, one deal from 42 different restaurants, bars, distilleries, breweries and vineyards in the designated area. Each deal may be used one time.

How does it work?

Simply pass the booklet to the bartender, order the special deal they have listed in the book, and enjoy! The bartender will stamp your booklet to mark the deal as done. And don't forget - it's always good form to tip on the full value.

When and where is it valid?

As of January 1, 2026 — the Guide to Imbibe is valid for a calendar year! Use YOUR deals at YOUR pace, without feeling rushed to redeem value in just a season. We currently have one guide for the DMV, with deals spread throughout the DMV area.

What sort of venues are in the Guides?

We’ve partnered with craft cocktail bars, wine bars, breweries, speakeasies, pubs, restaurants, and beer gardens across DC, Virginia, and Maryland.
