Fulbrook Ale Works

Craft Brewery in Richmond - 32.38 mi

Together with partners Jeffrey Hajovsky, Jeremy Hajovsky, and Patrick Ivey, Jeremiah Ivey founded Fulbrook Ale Works. A U.S. Army combat veteran, he is also the head brewer for this young brewery located in Richmond. The brewery started operations in February 2018 after purchasing the brewery and taproom of Texian Brewing in August 2017. The two companies have since entered into a contracted brewing arrangement. Open 7 days a week, Fulbrook’s taproom is great for guests with kids and pets. It currently features a lineup of six beers, and owing to Ivey’s background, all have military-themed names. The brewery and taproom accepts reservations for events as well.

Bakfish Brewing Company

Craft Brewery in Pearland - 38.74 mi

Bakfish Brewing Company has a distinction that no one can ever take away -- Pearland’s first craft brewery and brewpub. Established by friends Brian Allen and Kris Szecsy, they quit their jobs to establish the brewery in 2016. Houston metro area’s third largest city was somewhat of a “beer desert” because it had no local brewery of its own prior to its opening. With a 2,000 square foot air-conditioned taproom and a large covered patio, the brewery accommodates seating for about 300. There are five flagship brews including I Tell You Wit (a Belgian wit bier), Golden Ale (a blond ale), and Defying Gravity double IPA, with rotating seasonal and small batch releases at the taproom. The brewery does not serve food but has scheduled rotating food trucks onsite. Guests can also have food delivered or bring their own at the family- and dog-friendly brewpub.

Baileson Brewing Company

Craft Brewery in Houston - 43.02 mi

Established by husband Adam Cryer and his wife, Sarah Pope, the Baileson Brewing Company features two of man’s best friends – beers and pooches. The “pooches” part come from the company’s name – a combination of the couple’s two dogs Bailey and Jameson. (They have a third fur baby called Beau, who came later.) The brewery, of course, supplies the handcrafted beers, especially ales. Located in the outskirts of the Rice Village area in Houston, the brewery was an old gas station built in 1950 until the building became an auto-service station in the mid-1970s. The couple retained the exterior canopy, which serves as the brewpub’s patio, and fitted it with picnic tables. They allow non-beer fans to bring wine from their neighbor next door, and allow outside food. The place, of course, is “dog-friendliest”, with the couple claiming that their pooches “have better social lives” than their humans.

They also carry craft beers from other states, several national brands, and even European imports. There is wine, cocktails, and non-alcoholic beverages, of course, and the food menu is just as extensive. Because it’s a sports bar, after all, there are 5 large projection screens and 24 LED TVs. They even say that if a game is “televised or legally streamed”, they should have access to it. Not interested in the game? There are other ways to unwind, including billiards. Still not convinced? They have daily deals that might just make you drop by for a visit.

Under The Radar Brewery

Craft Brewery in Houston - 44.44 mi

As with other craft breweries, Under The Radar Brewery got its start in homebrewing. Its three founders brewed in their garage until they realized they could bring their hobby to the next level. Starting out small and opening without so much as a sign, the brewery’s name suggests how things were initially done at the brewery. It also found a perfect spot among condos and townhomes, and further bolsters the under-the-radar nature of the brewery. Their taproom, though small, has an outdoor area, and serves five “usuals” (their core beers) and a couple of seasonal/ special beers. It’s also kid- and dog-friendly, much like a backyard in one’s neighborhood. They’re not canning their brews yet, but do check their website for updates on where their beers are available.

Their picnic-table-filled courtyard is strategically positioned for optimal shade, be it underneath the awning, shaded by some oak trees or under the silos. The taproom is not air-conditioned, but large industrial fans diminish the Texas heat as much. Current offerings include Belgo Black, Belgian dubbel; Cape Comorin, dry hopped double IPA; ’16 ProAm – 2 Versions, Belgian trippel; Sittin’ Sidehaze, and New England-style IPA.

True Anomaly Brewing Company

Craft Brewery in Houston - 45.89 mi

True Anomaly Brewing specializes in “hop-forward ales, Belgian-style ales, and wild/sour fermented ‘explorations’”. With this kind of lineup of craft beers, the anomaly would be the right word. The story behind the brewery’s name is also based on the founders' day jobs. Also, the founders started as homebrewers. And, 10 years after and countless beer batches brewed, they finally decided to start a brewery. True Anomaly is also space-themed. This includes the building's exteriors. And also, the “contemporary-industrial interiors”. Plus, the NASA posters hanging from the walls and the names of its beers. All of which are related to the founders’ backgrounds.

Buffalo Bayou Brewing Company

Craft Brewery in Houston - 46.23 mi

The Buffalo Bayou Brewing Company thrives on creativity and imagination. It has a simple mission: (1) “create great craft beer that is unapologetically Houston,” and (2) “bring people around great beer.” Their slogan reflects it – “Houston’s most creative brewery”. Founded by two friends Ras Zarinfar and Ryan Robertson in March 2011, many things have happened since they started at their original location on Nolda Street. Once a boat storage warehouse, they imagined, and created, a successful brewery and taproom business. About 70 craft beers later, they imagined bigger things for their Houston community. Within six weeks, the company raised $1M in funding from 583 individuals to build a 28,000 sq. ft. brewery and taproom. The new location opens in Fall 2019, with three floors of beer goodness. It’s much like, as the owners would like to say, Willy Wonka’s beer factory, but run by a Belgian monk in Texas cowboy boots! The deck offers spectacular views of the Houston skyline! Imagine that…

Baa Baa Brewhouse

Craft Brewery in Brookshire - 46.28 mi

Baa Baa Brewhouse owners Marcus and Kinga Wunderle have fond memories of childhood nursery rhymes. They established in April 2016 a very family- and pet-friendly nano-brewery in Brookshire. There are toys and an extensive play area for the kids, and treats made from spent grains for four-legged friends. The brewery itself has a very relaxed and casual atmosphere with several picnic tables for their patrons. It is also available for special events. Aside from this, it is also a "small spot packed with great beer and an amazing staff". Also offers "absolutely delicious beers! Though beer is a bit of a strange way to describe what they've got going on with some of their offerings. For starters, there are a few beer-beers: a blonde, kolesch, and several varieties of stouts. Each good in their own right, but the beers that set Baa Baa apart are their fruited sours".

Galveston Bay Beer Company

With at least 12 beers to choose from, some are exclusive to the taproom only.
