Feel that cool breeze? Yep, it’s officially patio season in Houston, and I’ve got a new spot that’s worth your attention. If you’ve ever been to Lovelady, Texas, you’ve probably heard of Stesti Brewing Company. And if you’ve had a beer in Houston, you might know “Stesti Steve”—not his real name, but that’s what he

Hold up…is it actually Houston Craft Beer Month? Didn’t we switch that to March? Well, that depends on who you ask. But you know what? Let’s celebrate anyway! Back in 2021, the fine folks at Houston Beer Guide had a brilliant idea: let’s dedicate an entire month to celebrating the incredible craft beer scene right

In the tight-knit world of Houston craft beer, you might have encountered a man named Channing during a visit at Nobi Public House in Webster or Nobi Grill in Friendswood. In fact, when I first discovered the beauty of local craft beer, he was one of the few behind the bar that introduced me. He

Tucked in the small neighborhood of Houston’s second ward, just a block from White Oak Music Hall, H-Town Brewing Co graciously appears on the scene as Houston’s newest brewpub and bar.

This past weekend I attended my favorite themed weekend of faire season, Highland Fling at the Texas Renaissance Festival. Bringing in the new Fall season is the ideal opportunity for bonfires, beers, and the glorious sight of Scottish tartan kilts blowing in the wind of the smoke-filled woods of Todd Mission, Texas.

August is for supporting local beer. Why? Because we said so. *wink. Plus, have you taken a look at the craft beer scene in our city lately? Ooof, it’s rough out there and this industry can use your support yet again. With new breweries closing (Black Page Brewing Co.), the lack of public excitement about
