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 made for the weekend. You would have a hard time not enjoying yourself.

First the beer. I fell for a West Coast IPA they call “LFG”. As much as I love hazy IPAs, it’s always a treat to have what now seems like an original. This balanced hop-forward classic will get you feeling it with it’s strong citrus notes from beginning to end proving why it will be a mainstay in the taproom.

The brewery itself is what really got my attention. Formally a restaurant known as The Cedar they have a large indoor area that is nothing in comparison to what you will see outside. The elevated stage for live music is positioned towards the brewery and allows beer enthusiasts to enjoy a perfect view of Lake Houston. After visiting most every brewery in the region, I always admired groups that were able to visit a brewery via bicycle. Cycling has never been my forte. Boating on the other hand is one of my favorite leisure activities. With several places to dock your boat or jet ski, visiting Lake Houston Brewery is a must for water enthusiasts and beer enthusiasts alike.

Cheers!

Pumpkin Beer Season is Still Upon Us, Houston

Greg Shawinsky

Yes, Halloween has come and gone, but in Houston, I think the best time for pumpkin beer is late fall through the end of the year. I’ll drink a pumpkin beer during any season, but it’s not as easy to thoroughly enjoy this style in September and October when the outdoor temperature often still hits

Feel that cool breeze? Yep, it’s officially patio season in Houston, and I’ve got a new spot that’s worth your attention.

Now is the perfect time to celebrate Houston Beer

Sylvia Benavidez

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

Katy residents are fortunate to have a mayor who not only supports but savors craft beer. William “Dusty” Thiele and No Label Brewing Co. have collaborated on an Amber Lager to honor his contributions to the city they proudly represent. Dubbed “Downtown Dusty,” this amber lager is currently a seasonal offering, but I’m making a
