    Eureka Heights’ Tipsy Clover Beer Review

    No, it’s not green. Which I think in the minds of most people over 24 years old is a good start. Especially considering first of all that this is a stout, and if it had been green something has gone terribly awry. Nevertheless, as we approach that most sacred of day drinking holidays and I

    Whole Foods Market DL Double IPA Fresh From the Can!

    If you didn’t read my last article, shame on you, but also, you didn’t hear the news that Whole Foods Market was going to begin canning. The first run of DL Double was canned yesterday, March 1st, and I picked up a 4-pack this morning so I could bring you the review ASAP. The beer

    Beer Spotlight: Pilsner Urkel from Spindletap Brewery

    Anyone else getting bored with IPAs? Yeah right, me neither. While I still love my hop forward ‘bitter beer face’ IPAs, I find myself crawling back to traditional styles of craft beer more often lately. Perhaps it’s simplicity of cracking open a beer that you know you can enjoy a few per session with no

    A Look at Eureka Heights’ Rereleased Stouts

    Eureka Heights Brewing has always been a favorite brewery of mine. During peak pandemic when all restaurants and bars were closed, Eureka Heights steadily released one to two new beers every week from its drive thru. Of course, their year-round beers like Mini Boss and Buckle Bunny are great beers, but the pandemic really has

    A Study in Subtlety: Ingenious Brewing Beer Reviews

    If you haven’t heard of Ingenious Brewing yet, they are one of the leaders in Houston for big flavors in beer. They are known for their juicy NEIPAs, their fruit bomb sours, and their decadent pastry stouts. I swung by their brewery and tap room on 59, just north of the beltway a couple weeks

    Season of Stouts

    As Winter fades into the cool-ish temperatures we call winter here in Houston, the thing that gets me excited is all the local special releases of big boozy stouts. Now I could (and often do) drink stouts throughout the year, but something just hits differently when you are bundled up around a fire sipping a

    Beers to help with your New Year’s Resolution

    With January resolutions still in their infancy, I figured I could lend a hand to people who are having trouble sticking to their guns. Personally, I’m trying to drink smarter, focusing on lower abv and caloric offerings. With that in mind, I set out to grab a few non-alcoholic beers and taste them. I ended

    Saint Arnold Bishop’s Barrel 17

    Saint Arnold’s barrel-aged series has reached its post-hype phase. Don’t let that stop you from hunting for the latest iteration, out today, because it’s delicious. A couple years ago, you needed a spreadsheet and a hashtag to track down a single bottle of each Bishop’s Barrel release. You also had to go to a bar
