Brighter Days pours that beautiful golden hazy yellow color that all hazers are crave. The pour alone lets you know it's a damn good beer. The head sits at the perfect level to add aroma and flavor, and the lacing runs smoothly down the glass as you enjoy each sip....
Want a F U Harvey Teku? Meet us at Baa Baa Brewhouse today Sat. 9/9/2017. These past few weeks have been tough for the city. If you've been...
Catty Corner Cream Ale really deserves your attention. For a post-hurricane-survival-mode-beer, it was perfect. The light, vanilla scent reminds me of oreo cookies and childhood innocence, and the creamy mouthfeel begs you to drink more and...

Saint Arnold Oktoberfest is colored like real fall foliage, with heavy wiffs of dried fruit, spice, and toasted bread. The mouthfeel is near perfect with flavors that blend amazingly well with the scent. Expect sweet notes of light spice, orange, caramel, and toasted bread. ...
The label says Lenin's Revenge is "as thick and black as your capitalist blood." I will agree that Lenin's Revenge is a pitch black stout, but the mouthfeel was not as heavy as you'd be led to believe. Does it know something about...
Y'all ever get that itch to bake? You know the one, where you have an insatiable desire to craft something sweet, delicious, and oh so fattening? The Pumpkin Porter Spice Cake with Cream Ale Cream Cheese frosting fits the bill to satisfy all your...
Abide obviously pays homage to The Big Lebowski. If you haven't seen that movie, I'm not sure what to tell you other than you might be out of your element here with these references I'll undoubtedly be making throughout this review...
Buffalo Bayou Tropikal Rotundone pours a cloudy, light amber tone with colorful, fruity scents of mango and passionfruit. The juicy, fruitiness keeps on coming with strong malty, mango flavors well balanced by the crisp, alcohol notes. It's big wave of fruit flavors creates a completely...
The nice woman behind the bar set that Spindletap snifter under the tap and it looked like an oil derrick let loose when she pulled the handle. Aceite Crudo is aptly named...
IP8 poured a clear golden color, right on for a double IPA. There was 2 fingers of white fluffy head that melted down into a thin layer as I cooked my carne de pastor, and each sip left more and more creamy lace down the glass. It was more like a...
Honey Hole is the bees knees. It pours a medium golden orange, almost rust-like color with very little head that doesn't linger, although it seemed to "buzz" with the effervescence of carbonation for quite a few sips. It's aromas include bready malt, sweet honey, and a slight dryness you'd expect...
Upon cracking open the can, I was pleasantly greeted with light floral and citrus notes, and the signature yeasty scent of most witbiers. Buffalo Bayou claims "real dudes drink pink" because spoiler alert, Summer's Wit is brewed with the dainty, rosy-toned hibiscus flower! The citrus aroma comes full circle with a...
The statement printed under the musket is believed by every true born Texan and will echo until the walls of the Alamo crumble to dust, “If you have to ask what 1836 stands for. Please put down this beer and leave our country.”...
Bishop's Barrel 18 pours an opaque, ruby brown color with a thin line of off-white head. There are aromas of oatmeal, molasses, and raisin. Some of the earthy tones from...
DDH Medina Sod is a very unique pale wheat ale. This is definitely not a basic wheat ale. Here's my advice, drink the beer and forget the style - just enjoy it! If you like Brash EZ-7, then you will love DDH Medina Sod....
Brash Abide has hints of roasted coffee, dark chocolate, and a well-balanced bitterness that presents surprisingly sweet. It greets your taste buds eloquently and deliciously, ending with ...
I've been jonesin' to get Lame Duck in cans and I am pretty sure I pestered the guys about it the last few times I have been out to the brewery. In fact, last time I went, they showed Chris and I the can design for Lame Duck and it is...
Weisstheimer was released this past May and its pun filled popularity has taken the “In the Loop” crowd by storm. I arrived early, and was the second or perhaps third patron who had made themselves comfortable at the bar; I took a quick breather to mentally prepare myself for what my wife would later tell me to be an unheard consumption rate of tacos and beer...
To give you some more background on this beer, Big Mistake is a barrel aged Russian Imperial Stout that goes into 3 different types of barrels: 5 yr old Yellow Rose bourbon, 9 yr old...
