    5 stellar reasons to visit Star Sailor HTX

    Of all the bars and craft pubs in Houston, a select few stick out to me as “true craft beer centric pub eateries” in this city.

    Brewery Hopping in Houston’s East End

    #HoustonBeerMonth Guest Submission from Cole Wehner  Houston’s breweries are as widespread as it’s never-ending freeway system but there are a few spots in town where you can easily do a traditional “bar-hop” between breweries!  One of our favorite brewery-hops, not only because we live down the street, is in the East End (for these purposes

    Waterfront beer experience at Lake Houston Brewery

    #HoustonBeerMonth Guest Submission from Jason Ducey When reviewing beers, it can sometimes be difficult to separate the experience from the beer.  Sometimes in the right surrounding a beer you once passed on could be short lived favorite.  Lake Houston Brewery located in Huffman Texas eliminates all the negative with solid beers and an outdoor setup
