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. To name a few, I'm talking about Petrol Station (RIP), Nobi Public House, Hughie's, MoonTower Inn, Thistle Draftshop, Hop Stop (RIP), The Regal Beagle, Saucer, Cobble & Spoke, Hay Merchant,…

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…
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.

#HoustonBeerMonth Guest Submission from Ronnie Risner Fest season is upon us!

#HoustonBeerMonth Guest submission by Chris Ayers New Magnolia Brewing is one of the newer breweries that has popped up in Houston, and they're a pretty close neighborhood brewery to me.

Tomball's Bearded Fox Brewing Canning Flagship Beers
If you were to ask a Houston beer connoisseur to name 10-15 breweries in the Houston area, Tomball’s Bearded Fox probably won’t make many lists. However this small but mighty brewery has been quenching the thirst of northwest suburban beer drinkers since they opened in 2017, and they have recently started canning a…
Hyper Light - Simple and Satisfying
Do you even drink beer, bro? With the amount of new beer and extraordinary flavors and styles out on the market now, I has dawned on me that many beer fans have forgotten about how beer actually tastes. Yes, that's right. Just regular beer. The beers that our fathers drank. The beers that their fathers drank. As craft…
Introducing Shoot the Moon
If you run in local craft beer circles on the social medias - which I assume you do if you’ve found this group - then you’ve no doubt heard about the recently opened Shoot the Moon located in the recently redeveloped Spring Branch Village shopping center at 8155 Long Point Road. Although having just barely wrapped up…
Variety is the Spice of Life at Urban South HTX
Urban South HTX Entrance I have been meaning to write about Urban South HTX for a while now, and finally had the chance to go and do just that. Anyone who knows the pedigree of their brew staff knows to expect hazy IPAs, fruity sours, and big stouts. Judging by the glassware I saw while I was there, the fruited sours…
Baileson's "Renew By 6/21" amber refreshing in hot summer months
Because Houston Beer Month occurs in August, there probably won’t be too many folks clamouring for Russian Imperial Stouts or similar heavy hitters due to the hot temperatures and high humidity. However, light, crushable beers are not the only types of beers that can be enjoyed in the summer. Malt-forward beers like…
