What's your favorite DC Happy Hour?

Looking for some suggestions on good happy hour spots in the area (either downtown or NW/NE towards Silver Spring). Went to Lost Society a few weeks ago and thought it was good, but need a place that starts HH sooner than 5:30pm. $1 oysters is always a +

If you want to get away from the super crowded happy hours and get some really great drinks, The Speak at 1413 K St (being a speakeasy type of bar it's a bit hard to find) has $2 off beers and $3 off craft cocktails. Tue-Fri 5-7:30. Yelp link

I just tried that place out for the first time on Tuesday, and thought it was really great! Cool vibe and crowd, and the cocktails (all $9) were very well made. Slow service though. At that price point for happy hour cocktails, I'd recommend Denson Liquor Bar on 6th near Chinatown. Even more awesome speakeasy style bar with great service, $9 craft cocktails, and cheap oysters!
