Goliad Brewing Company

Craft Brewery in Goliad - 38.68 mi

Goliad Brewing Company takes its name after the small town of Goliad. The town’s battle cry “Remember Goliad” reflects its importance in Texas history. The brewery, established in 2014, similarly calls on its guests to remember the town’s storied past. It is located on a 50-acre property and takes “going local” seriously. The brewery draws 60% of its water from a well located inside the property. Owner John Wilkerson, head brewer Stefan Zurakowski, and sales and marketing head Mark Nichols honors the importance of going local in other ways as well. They named one of their brews, a Mexican style lager, after Cinco de Mayo hero General Ignacio Zaragoza, who was born in Goliad. They also invite visitors to enjoy the park-like atmosphere of the brewery from Mondays to Saturdays. The brewery and beer garden, though, only serves their beers on Fridays and Saturdays.

Cactus Land Brewing Company

Craft Brewery in Adkins - 40.30 mi

Cactus Land Brewing Company was named after the prickly pear cactus growing on the 7-acre property it is situated on. Husband-and-wife Dustin and Erica Teague started, just like other brewers before them, with homebrewing. And like other brewers, they have had hits and misses. “The first brew was awful,” recalls Erica during an interview, and the cleanup as Erica described it seemed brutal. Determined, they doggedly continued, and eventually, started winning homebrewing competitions. Finally, with their Texas license approved on June 2016, they started building their brewery. The DIYers worked at night away from their day jobs and on weekends, and successfully completed a Kickstarter campaign. Since their initial opening, they’ve added a stage, a covered patio, and fenced in a large open area for kids. As a small artisanal brewery, Cactus Land remains committed to creating “diverse beer for diverse people”. Currently, they keep their operation manageable by opening only during the first and third weekends of each month.

Wild Bunch Brewing Co.

Craft Brewery in Georgetown - 45.44 mi

Open since 2017 and located “in the middle of nowhere”, Wild Bunch Brewery announces its presence once you see its handwritten sign. Brew master Jarle Lillemoen owns and operates Wild Bunch Brewing Company. He and Managing Member Jamie Caras both hold doctoral degrees in biochemistry, which should come in handy at the brewery. Calling his beer the “best damn beer in Texas”, Jarle only uses “high quality ingredients” in his “100% unfiltered beers”. He also uses the traditional method of brewing using an open propane flame throughout the process. He is also non-traditional in the age of state-of-the-art brewing equipment. Yet, his method yields “richer, more intense flavors and colors”. A blogger writes that Wild Bunch as of October 2019 offers seven beers served in jam jars at their taproom. Not bad for a brewery that’s designed and hand-built by Jarle himself. Finally, prior to establishing Wild Bunch, Jarle was the master distiller at Bone Spirits Distillery in Smithville.

Faust Brewing Company

Craft Brewery in New Braunfels - 45.92 mi

Faust Brewing Company opened in 1998 in New Braunfels. Initially intended as a full bar and dining outlet housed within the historic Faust Hotel, the brewery expanded its operations in 2016 and now includes a separate brewpub. The new brewpub is just about a block away from the hotel. New Braunfels is a town rich in German heritage, and both the hotel and the brewery honor the past and the German tradition of beer making. The hotel and brewery is named after Walter Faust Sr., who spearheaded the initial development of the hotel. Opened just before The Great Depression, Faust’s determination also helped keep the hotel open during the difficult period. Today, the brewery creates a selection of year-round beers, seasonal varieties, and small batch creations. They also serve wine and a variety of local guest beers on tap.

New Braunfels Brewing

Craft Brewery in New Braunfels - 46.16 mi

New Braunfels Brewing was founded in early 2011 by the Meyer family. They are brewing locally hand-crafted beer “inspired by old-world German recipes” with a Texan disregard for the rules. They goes beyond traditional beer styles and brews what they like, using unique ingredients, unique recipes and a fierce ingenuity. All of the beer they offer is dry with a balanced acidity. Their base beers are “Hefeweizen, Dunkelweizen Weizenbock and Oktoberfest.” Their medium is grains, hops, fruit, spices and their local blend of wild yeast and bacteria. They also barrel-age and secondarily ferment these releases to create unique and new beers. They got a bar at the brewery with 8 taps and a stool for you to enjoy them all. What goes in the beer they make is as much local wheat, local water and local passion as they can get their hands on.

Guadalupe Brewing Company

Craft Brewery in Canyon Lake - 46.85 mi

Guadalupe Brewing Company uses honey as a key ingredient in several of their craft beers. Concern for the honeybee population, therefore, is just one of the many passions by its owners. To this end, the company contributes a portion of the proceeds from the sales of their flagship Texas Honey Ale to support Texas A&M University’s bee research program. The brewery opened its doors in 2012. Owners Keith and Anna Kilker focus on “full-flavored, well-balanced, and approachable” beers using only natural ingredients. Their lineup of award-winning beers includes the Pumpkin Style Texas Honey Ale and their Belgian Style Tripel. Both are medal winners at the U.S. Open Beer Championships, among other creations. Interestingly, head brewer Keith was not your typical experienced homebrewer. He had never brewed beer before. Instead, he studied brewing science at the Siebel Institute just prior to opening his dream brewery.

AquaBrew

Craft Brewery in San Marcos - 49.94 mi
