World of Beer Appears to Be Coming to Ballston

It appears that World of Beer will be opening a new location in Ballston.

The tavern chain, noted for its extensive craft and international beer selection, has filed initial permit applications to build a new location at 4300 Wilson Blvd, according to Arlington Economic Development.

Though no permits have been posted and no construction is evident yet, the most likely landing spot for World of Beer is that of the former Ted’s Montana Grill, which closed in 2015. The 6,600 square foot space also features an outdoor patio, near the intersection of Wilson Blvd and N. Glebe Road.

World of Beer previously had a location up the street, at 901 N. Glebe Road, but the restaurant that opened in 2012 later disassociated from the chain and rebranded as “Crafthouse.” The current nearest World of Beer is in Bethesda.
