Finally made it over there and I was pleasantly surprised. Good brews, solid vibe. Seemed busy and everyone there was having a good time. They even brought over a flight size house root beer for my son to try and it was delicious. Was really looking forward to going back, maybe hitting up the food truck out front. Bummer.

Where da beer at??? It's 2 am n I needs it

Hi,

I'll be traveling to Dallas/Irving in November and would love to make some trades while I'm there.

Can anyone help me with an invite to a trading group? I have a spare suitcase which I'm planning to fill with lambic :)

*Edit

I'm planing to travel TO Dallas with a suitcase full of lambic :)

Did anyone see the Peticolas account on FB 8/27/24 trashing Yonder Brewing saying that their beer is what was wrong with the industry. It was a pastry stout or sour beer.

As you can imagine, it opened the flood gates and people started agreeing with their take and then trashing Peticolas for being too safe/criticizing them. Thoughts on Peticolas?

I'm a blogger located just outside of Cleveland, Ohio, and while most of my content is related to Ohio breweries and its craft brew scene I want to branch out a little. As a die-hard Cleveland Browns fan, I thought it might be fun to connect with some breweries that back the opponents on our schedule this season. This is where you all come in. Are there any breweries in the DFW area that you might think are more sports centric than others? Any that come to mind that scream, "this is my go to place on game day?"

I appreciate the help in advance, thanks!

Quick edit: I'm not actually visiting the area but I am hoping to get some insight into which breweries would be more likely to engage in friendly interview about beer and football

I love the taprooms and the beer pubs and the amazing varieties of beer in the area. What about the wineries? There are plenty of local bottled wines, but are there any places I can get a half liter of wine and get pleasantly sloshed while watching the world go by?

I am fairly new to Texas, live in Cleburne, work in Ft Worth. I moved from NC. Most breweries there would brew a good variety of beers. Their stouts were oatmeal, or milk, but typically lower gravity. They would offer Imperials, as well, but not only Imperials. A lot of Texas brewers seem to just make Imperials. Everything seems to be 10% + abv. Why do Texas brewers do this? Is there any brewers in Texas that make lower abv stouts and porters?

My favorite brewery in NC is Duck Rabbit. They are then"dark" beer specialists. All their beers are dark, including their IPA. They, also, offer some higher gravity beers, but they run a successful operation with beers that have lower abv.

I don’t know if it’s a trend, and I don’t care, Celestial’s Ube Pina Colada is so good! They have other flavors I will be working my way through.

That’s it for my Saturday PSA.

Have fun and be safe friends!

Sad sad day. Wish someone had bought it out.

In need of a good beer store. Does Central Market have a decent create a 6 pack section? That is why I loved CBC. Every beer could be a single.

Just as the title says. Can i get rollertown beer at the waxahachie HEB?

I've been watching Inspector Morse and the Inspector loves Real Ale. I'd like to try some. Any recommendations for something that can be found in a FW store?

Did Wild Acre change the formula of their Texas Blonde when they got purchased? I was hoping that I just got a few bad cans directly after they were bought out, but I got some recently that was just as bad. The original blue bonnet can was a great blonde beer, but the new Orange and blue skinny cans taste terrible.

Can anyone else confirm this, or am I going crazy?

Hi everyone, I really love Jester King beers, especially the sour/tart beer and fruited ones. I am having trouble finding it in stores recently. Does anyone know where it is consistently stocked? Also, do any local breweries produce anything similar to jester king? I’m not really a fancy beer person, I just like those particular classes of beer. Thanks for any help!

Visited Dallas from Australia back in 2022 and made sure we hit up Celestial. Then I just found this in my local bar/beer store in Melbourne. Future Brewing is an awesome up and coming brewery from Sydney. Amazing collab and stoked to have something from Celestial in Aus!

Did not see this one coming. My guess is that they contract with Bud or Coors to brew and ride the brand into oblivion.

Sad news as another Fort Worth brewery is shutting its doors on April 27th.

Brutal Beerworks in NRH closed up. No idea if they were any good, the wife and I were going to go and I looked them up to confirm the address and saw that it was permanently closed.

Lots of folks have been let go from Martin House lately, more so than usual and including management. Prepping the place to sell? Trimming costs due to weak sales numbers? Unable to make orders for Ben E. Keith? Surely, someone here has some info. I really don't want to see them get sold off like others have especially after 10 years. Edit: Title is unintentionally scary. Whoops!

Three Wide Brewing is opening their tap room on 3/2/2024. I’ve been waiting for this one for a while. The facility is huge and looks to be top notch. Had their High Groove IPA over the weekend and was very impressed. Be sure to check them out.

Edited to include the address.

16230 Three Wide Drive Fort Worth, TX 76177

Update: We went yesterday and they were JAM PACKED. I didn’t expect that kind of turnout, but I’m happy for them. The line to get beer was anywhere from 10-20 minutes at times. The staff was very overwhelmed but I think they did the best they could and didn’t expect that kind of turnout either. Beautiful facility and heard really good things about the food. We wanted to eat but at the time we were told it could be an hour and a half to get it. We’ll definitely be back.
