Written by Native Houstonians - List of Houston Breweries

The Officially Unofficial List of Houston Breweries

These are all 65 of the active breweries that represent the Greater Houston Area and a few that don’t, but they hope to soon. If you’re unsure of anything – hours, food, etc., please call first. You can also view them in map form here.

Houston’s big – REAL BIG. If you’re from out of town looking to brewery hop, you’ll realize just how big. As the largest city in the US (geographically) there’s a lot of ground to cover, and this list even extends a bit beyond Houston.

We’ll continue to visit each and every brewery below to find out a bit more about their history, what makes them unique and what sort of beers they offer. We’ll document it here. If you know something we don’t, hit us up on IG, Facebook, or shoot us an email here.

We’ll also be writing reviews of their beers and our experience at the brewery. Beers to you, Houston!

Saint Arnold Brewing Company

Inside the Loop – Near Northside

Founded: June 1994

Known For: Texas’ Oldest Craft Brewery

Beer to Try: Ale Wagger, Art Car IPA, Icon Series, 5 O’Clock Pils, Pub Crawl Pale Ale

One of the Houston Breweries that started it all. Our first keg of beer was shipped on June 9, 1994. Founded by Brock Wagner and Kevin Bartol, we chose Houston because, other than living here, this was the largest city in the country that did not have a microbrewery. Brock was a longtime homebrewer and had considered opening a brewery as far back as college, although that was quickly dismissed as a silly idea. Seven years after graduating, Brock revisited the idea, enlisted Kevin’s help and the brewery was off and running. Kevin has since left the business after a bitter battle. (Just kidding – but don’t you wish people wrote that when it was the truth?).

Holler Brewing Co.

Inside the Loop – Sawyer Yards

Founded: Late 2016

Known For:

Beer to Try: Looyah Milk Stout, Dollar Pils Y’all, IPA

Our brewery is our name. Some call us uncreative, some call us egomaniacs. We prefer “committed”. Our name is on our product, so we take it seriously.

We used to make other things — lesson plans, TPS reports, Excel sheets that ruled the world — but none of these gave us as much pleasure, or as much alcohol, as making beer. So in January, 2015, we abandoned our adult lives in favor of the much less practical pursuit of beer making.

John got his training from the Siebel Institute in Chicago and Doemens Academy in Munich, and Kathryn brewed and served at Two Henry’s Brewing in Plant City, FL.

Founded: January 2016

Known For: Having a great sense of humor

Beer to Try: Nuke the Whales, Mini Boss IPA, Buckle Bunny, Space Train, Moo Caliente

Eureka Heights Brewing Company was forged in the dark depths of the Eureka Heights fault line and the hellfire of Houston summer. Once emerged we spent years on a spirit quest that guy at the gas station recommended. Then we decided we wanted to make some beer.

Our name comes from the Eureka Heights fault system, which runs under our brewery. The fault was important during the development of Houston and even has a railroad tower named after it, and we’re pretty sure we don’t need to tell choo how awesome we feel about that.

Sigma Brewing Company

Inside the Loop – EADO

Founded: 2009?

Known For:

Beer to Try: Murry Chrimmus Imperial Porter

At Sigma, we are just regular dudes that have all lead different lives, and over the years the one thing that always kept us connected was our passion and love for beer and home brewing. As we started brewing not-so-shitty beer at home, we started to wonder if one day we could make beer our jobs and not just our favorite pastime. From there, “The Brewery,” as it became known, was something that we all fantasized about.

About 7 years ago, we decided to stop fantasizing. We took a hard look at ourselves and knew that we didn’t have what it took to start and run a brewery, so we rubbed our hands together and got to work. We did our research, we (drank) did our homework, and we convinced not only ourselves, but others, that we (sort of) knew what we were doing, and if nothing else our passion and drive could make “The Brewery” a reality.

Originally, Fullelove started Brash as a contract brewing company in Massachusetts, but changes to Texas beer laws allow him to obtain a brewpub license and maintain his interest in Petrol Station, the Oak Forest bar that’s become a hotspot in Houston’s burgeoning craft enthusiasm. Fullelove tells CultureMap that he consulted with Jeff Stuffing from Austin’s Jester King Brewery and Scott Metzger from San Antonio’s Freetail Brewery before he brought Brash home.

Inside the Loop – Washington Ave.

Founded: 2016

Known For: Australian Influence

Beer to Try: The Ranga Red Ale

After home brewing for years, and moving back and forth from Houston to Australia, they decided to open up a brewery in Houston.

The concept evolved as the three Platypi discussed venture possibilities and realized that all of the things that they loved about both Australia and Texas were one and the same, a cultural overlap so-to-speak. The passion of crafting great beer, while creating a friendly and relaxed neighborhood environment for people to come together and enjoy good drink and food, started to take shape. The dream quickly became a reality.

Baileson Brewing Company

Inside the Loop – Rice Village

Founded: 2017

Known For: Loving dogs

Beer to Try: ?

Baileson Brewing Company is a brewpub located in the neighborhood of Boulevard Oaks, just on the outskirts of the Rice Village area. We are a husband and wife team that loves craft beer and focuses on brewing hand-crafted ales that we love to drink. We like hops, we like stouts, and we enjoy some other beer styles in between.

Our brew system is relatively small which allows us to brew new beers on a monthly basis, while keeping most of the crowd favorites up on the tap wall as well. Previously we brewed these beers in our garage at home, and one summer day in 2015 we said to ourselves, “You know what? Houston needs more neighborhood brewpubs!” So we started working on a plan to add just such a place in a part of town that we know well, and 2 years later Baileson came to life.

B52 has made quite the name for themselves extending beyond their base beers like Payload Pils and Breakfast Stout. With hazy IPAs, milkshake varieties, crazily adjuncted beers, and heavily-fruited Berliner and Saison releases nearly every weekend, B52 is becoming a leading destination for Houston’s beer nerds.

We started production March 2008. Contrary to popular belief, the first beer we ever brewed was our Pine Belt Pale Ale. Shortly after, we added Bombshell Blonde and Buried Hatchet Stout to the list of year round releases.

Our Seasonals, such as our Le Mort Vivant and our Walloon, were based on beer styles that were all but extinct, and portions of the proceeds from our Red Cockaded benefit an endangered woodpecker native to our region.

Beer to Try: Dope Village Altbier, Who’s Paul Pale Ale, Mole Mole Mole Imperial Stout

We’re passionate beer nerds that answered a call to brew for Houston, Spring, and Conroe. For years Jess developed a stock of home brewing equipment while moving from coast to coast in the Navy, evolving his brewing skills from nose-pinching bad batches to delicious brews. He turned us into a beer family: Christina, his partner and recent beer convert, Alex, the equal opportunity beer lover, and Sydney, self-described beer snob with a soft spot for PBR.

Alex and Sydney didn’t grow up with a crawfish boil pot or a turkey frying pan in the front driveway — but the brew rig on Saturdays. Mixing the mash and throwing hops are just part of our family life; making and sharing good beer with friends is what we love to do.

Known For: Known for a cycling motif, private reservations and private water well, and having a keen nose for spices

Beer to Try: Palmares RIS, Derailler Scotch-Porter, Ryed Hard Rye IPA, Bonked Imperial Pumpkin Ale (yes, a pumpkin beer!)

Cyclers Brewing came about by friends who enjoy varied taste elements in food. Food is social. It has been, and it always will be. This transferred over into our varied creation of ales along with their different taste elements that we enjoy.

Their genesis spawned from a love of cycling, and apparently cycling and craft beer go hand in hand – who knew?

After a long ride years ago, the owner and head brewer Clay, was handed his first craft beer and it changed his world. Ever since then, he’s been on the hunt for new and varying beer.

Applying his beer knowledge from being an area manager for Coors, Clay, his wife Tina, and the Cycler’s team have been brewing great beer on a piece of land with picturesque scenery.

Founded: 2015

Known For: Known for bending the rules with Czech styles of beer in a quaint, off-the-beaten-path location

Beer to Try:Blueberry Lager, Pivo Pils, Peach Ginger Chili

Dennis Gore’s dedication to the craft of brewing beer saw him travel to Plzeň (Pronounced “Pills”), Czech Republic to study under the brew-masters of the world-renown Pilsner Urquell Brewery, home of the world’s first-ever pilsner-type blond lager.

Combining the Czech and American brewing traditions led to the creation of the Stesti Brewing Co.’s three signature beers: the Stesti Pivo Pils, Stesti Authentic Bohemian Lager and Stesti Dark Lager.

Combining the (2) brewmaster’s love of art and science to make delicious, painstaking-attention-to-detail beer, SpindleTap has grown really quickly in their first year. They’ve experienced a “boom” of their own, you could say.

Co-Founders Brody Chapman, David Miller, Shaun Ebersole, Cameron Banks and Adam Wright worked together for a logistics company. Initially their intentions for the brewery were small. They wanted to create a tiny, humble, yet fun place to bring customers to entertain them. Golf course? Old news. Fishing trips? Done that. How about a brewery!? Hell. Yes.

But like all good things, when combined with passion and a couple of dudes with a “get the job done” attitude, the humble goals of SpindleTap Brewery grew into big, lofty ones that had them reconsidering everything.

For many years, the building that occupied 26452 Sorters McClellan Rd in Porter, Texas was a very different type of establishment.

Though church folk are known for following tradition, we beer guys aren’t so easily defined. We seek inspiration from sources strange and fantastic, and we passionately brew our beers with creative characters and daring twists.

Over time this process led to exceptional and inventive beer. “Ingenious” perfectly symbolizes our philosophy that brewing beer is equal parts science and creativity.

It all started about 17 years ago when Valle decided to experiment with crafting his own beer out of his garage. He was originally driven by his desire to have better craft beer options that didn’t exist at the time.

Galveston County has a rich history of brewing beer dating back to 1895 with the purchase by Adolphus Busch of property at Post Office and 34th on Galveston Island. The Galveston brewery (Named Galveston Brewing Company) was under construction in 1896 and completed in February of 1897.

The building changed hands, and brews, half a dozen time in the last century. The building is rundown but still stands, operational for almost 100 years as a beverage production facility. It survived the great hurricane of 1900, two world wars, prohibition and the Great Depression. All things that would have been made a little easier with a nice cold brew.

No Label Brewing Co. truly began one sunny Saturday afternoon in the spring of 2009. The Royo family was sitting on the back porch enjoying some of Brian’s homebrew. After many pints, the conversation turned to the possibility of opening our own brewery. Although none of us had any experience running a brewery, we decided to give it a try.

No Label Brewing Co.’s first home was an old rice silo sitting empty in Old Town Katy. We signed the lease and after many months of sweat and tears our brewery was ready. We started holding small tastings for family and friends, who told their families and friends, and the numbers began to grow.

Founded: ?

Known For:

Beer to Try:

4J is a women-owned and family-operated craft brewery in the Houston/Spring Branch area.

The family, including previous generations, has lived in Spring Branch for nearly 100 years. The name 4J comes from the four “J” siblings – Jessica, Jackie, Joanna, and Jennifer. Having four girls whose name all start with a J made it tough on poor dad. He would refer to each of the girls by order of birth.

The youngest, #4, and Dad started home brewing together years ago, living by the motto “makin’ some and drinkin’ some.” The beer was always a hit at family events so one day, #4 and Mom decided to “steal” Dad’s hobby and shape it into a business. Dad, the official taste tester and brewmaster, quickly warmed up to the idea because he always has enough beer to drink.

Known For: Being too young to know what they’re known for, being unpretentious, and possibly being the only brewery in town wiht their own custom server rack

Beer to Try: Oso Bueno Amber, Color Blind Red IPA, Lame Duck Pale Ale, and Negative Space Chocolate Milk Stout

These guys are easily some of the most humble, down-to-earth, people in Houston, and their beer’s pretty good too.

They’ve got a great sense of humor that shines through in their branding, but when it comes time to brew the beer, all jokes are out the window. They’ve also been recognized for their efforts in the community.

They’re still young yet, and they’re not even 100% sure who they want to be when they grow up, but they’re 111% ok with that.

The Lone Pint Brewery

Magnolia, TX

Founded: December 2012

Known For:

Beer to Try: Yellow Rose Mosaic SMaSH IPA, Neighbor of the Beast IPA

The Lone Pint Brewery is a grassroots insurrection with the true beer lover in mind. We are dedicated to creating distinctive local Texas ales that are tasty, hoppy, and quaffable. We use raw whole cone hops for bittering, flavoring, aroma, and dry hopping additions in all of our brews. However, an equally important ingredient is the renewable energy that powers our Brewery. The spent grain is fed to a local dairy farmer’s cows and the spent hops are composted.

Craft brewing is an American institution. Our brewhouse and tanks are from Nevada, our boiler from Pennsylvania, our kegging machine from California, our chiller from Oregon, and our mill from Canada (close enough, eh!). Point being, we kept the love at home, doing our part to insure that craft brewing will always remain an American institution.

Craft Beer Cellar Cypress

Cypress, TX

Founded: 2018

Known For: Being the very first Craft Beer Cellar in the nation to brew their own beer in-house.

Beer to Try: Constantly rotating taps, but try some CBC when you stop by

Owner Justin Crane got his start in Colorado at Odell Brewing Company, and he immediately fell in love with the industry. Many beers and many years later he wanted to open his own brewery, but a brewpub under the Craft Beer Cellar franchise seemed like the smartest bet for the area and Houston beer landscape at large.

CBC Cypress will have draft, cans, and bottles of local and hard to find beers that you’ve come to know and love at a CBC location, but they’ll also brew their own!

Our roots are similar to most. Home-brewing, maybe a few too many, and a crazy “what if”. As the recipes were being developed, we discovered the old Brenham Brewery located just south of downtown Brenham, Texas.

We’re not a complicated brewery nor are we a complicated group of people. Our philosophy is a simple one. We brew what we like and we hope you like it, too.

Founded: ?

Known For:

Beer to Try: Border Town Mexican Lager, Ole Saint Nipplaus Peppermint Milk Stout

On account of our fierce beer lovin’ spirit, we hunkered down for a great brewed oddity that would whet our whistles and tickle our tastes. The suds of Blackwater Draw Brewing Co. are akin to their namesake, the beautiful birthplace of the mighty Brazos River: The Blackwater Draw. Now unlike that sludgy, unsanitary, downstream water that courses through the Brazos Valley, the beautiful Blackwater Draw sources unadulterated H-twenty. We follow this simple precept with our brew-making, and we believe it to be true that our time is not ill spent. Our beer is brewed in-house and is as sweet and pure as the water that pours from the Blackwater Draw.

The Blackwater Draw Brewing Co. makes bona fide craft beers that are as cultured as the grain that makes them. Consider us the safehouse for your gang while you hunker down, arouse your appetite, and satiate your thirst. Shit Dang!

BCS Zoigl Brewery

Known For: Allowing homebrewers an opportunity to brew and sell their beer on Zoigl’s system

Beer to Try: Constantly rotating

A very unique blend of home brewing, and community brewpub without all the titles. B-CS Unlike a typical brewery, the Zoiglbraurie and its members have equipment scattered all over town. Normally, when beer is fermenting and the tanks are full, there cannot be any mashing or cooking because there is no place to store the wort when done.

Many Zoiglbrauie members have their own fermenters and, when finished preparing the wort, they take it back to their place for finishing – freeing up the brewery to cook again for the next member. When the beer is finished, the brewer hangs a sign (“Zoigl”) to let everyone know that they should come on over and have a few – until it’s gone.

So we decided to name our brewery Town In City Brewing Company in honor of Houston’s first official suburb that was established way back in 1896. Then we switched it up!
