Eureka Heights has joined forces with Austin area brewing stalwarts Shannon Harris of Urban Jungle Brewing and Marvis “The Middle Man” Dixon of Fast Friends Brewing to release the first Houston iteration of “As One”.

5 Houston area IPAs you should be drinking on National IPA Day
The first Thursday of August is always National IPA Day , another made up beer holiday that we all love to celebrate. This year I have continued to enjoy this style on a regular basis, spreading the love along side more hop balanced lagers. Whether you are a fan of this hop forward style or not, IPAs still remain the…
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 work out which of my…
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…
What are HOU drinking? – June 2017
When the Allen brothers named this city after the foremost Texas hero, they fated that Houston would be a city with a “personality” as big as his. So it should come as no surprise the big Texas spirit and big Texas taste is present in Houston’s beer scene. To celebrate beverages that would make The
5 Breweries Put Their Twist on Saint Arnold Classics

I think calling them “The Godfather of Houston Beer” is a more appropriate title. Over the last 23 years, brewers and staff from Saint Arnold have
Heights Bike Trail Brewery Tour – Sunday May 7th
This Sunday, May 7th, Holler, Platypus, and Eureka Heights are teaming up for a 3-stop brewery tour – on bikes. The majority of the route will be along the Heights Hike & Bike trail or on dedicated bike lanes, so it should be an easy ride. It’s even easier when you think about everyone who just
Houston Beer Guide Bracket 2017
Contributions by Nathan Miller, Jose Luis Cubria, Kenneth Krampota, Josh Frink and HBG Staff (Click here to for a zoomable version) Yo that IPA Region is stacked! Mostly Harmless got screwed, though. Pumpkinator vs. Rocket Fuel in the Sweet 16 is gonna be brutal. I’ve got EZ7 as my Cinderella. Think Yellow Rose can…
Review: Baa Baa Brewhouse’s Cow Jumped Over the Moon – Houston Area’s First NEIPA
My recent essay on the greater Houston area’s relative lack of beers brewed in the hottest style in the country, the Northeast-Style or New England-Style India Pale Ale (NEIPA), ended up striking more of a chord than I’d hoped, with a handful of local (and forthcoming) breweries coming out of the woodwork revealing…
Houston Firkin Fest 2016: A Firkin Good Time
Sponsored by Saint Arnold, Real Ale, Freetail, Deep Ellum, and Texas Beer Bus, and run by the Texas Craft Brewers Guild, the third annual Houston Firkin Fest on June 18 represented the creative depth of some of Texas’s best breweries. After being moved from its original date in April due to a threat of severe
