I went to an event they hosted at the Brickskeller about a year and a half ago, and I love their stuff. I've recommended the Two Hearted so often that Bells ought to be paying me for the sheer scope of my advertising.
That same store carries the Green Flash brewery's IPA and Hop Head brew. Love the Hop Head. Also, wait until December for the Mendocino Brewing Company's seasonal IPA--I bought out the store's remaining two cases last year because it's so good.

Yeah that was me. Magruder's at Chevy Chase Circle has pretty much the best beer selection I've ever seen. I'd say they easily have around 80 to 100 varieties of beer at any given time. And what's nice is they change up brands a lot to keep it fresh, and I'm not just talking about seasonals. Whoever manages their inventory does a great job. Always a great variety across a wide spectrum of styles.
As to your recommendations, I've had the Hop Head and loved it. Never tried the others, but I'll look for them next time I'm in the store.
