Pilot Release: Tropical Stout (Collab with Longtab Brewing)
2026-06-27 12:00 - 20:00
New Pilot Beer coming your way. Collab with Longtab Brewing in San Antonio.
Urban Camo is how we would describe this big city/small town crossover: our take on a Tropical Stout, brewed with a variety of crystal malts and turbinado sugar to create a warm and rum-like body with complex notes of caramelized sugar and dark chocolate. The Sabro and Idaho 7 hops provide deeper tropical notes of pineapple and toasted coconut. It’s a hot stout summer!
Every pilot release is a chance to try something different — sometimes it’s a twist on a classic style, sometimes it’s a bold new direction. These beers are brewed in extremely small quantities on our 8bbl pilot system, and are typically only available in our Blanco taproom (and in some cases at our collab partners place). If you see one you want to try, don’t wait.

Pilot Release: Skullberry Strawberry Milkshake IPA
2026-06-13 12:00 - 20:00
Skullberry is back for a short time! A wacky idea inspired by the creativity of our friends at Tin Man in El Paso, we have re-released this to welcome Tin Man to San Antonio. Skullberry has its roots in the New England style of IPA but is modified by a small addition of lactose, which produces a softer mouthfeel and subtle sweetness. It has a berry-like aroma, which is boosted by late fermentation additions of fresh strawberry puree and Mexican vanilla, taking this beer to skull-splitting levels of awesomeness. Prepare to have your mind blown & get some while you can, only a couple of kegs to go!

Pilot Release: 3031 IPA (Collab with Flying Saucer)
2026-05-30 12:00 - 20:00
New Pilot Beer coming your way. We are celebrating with our buddies at Flying Saucer – who are celebrating 31 years the same year we celebrate 30. 3031 IPA is an audacious convergence of two of the most long-standing staples of craft beer in Texas. This IPA was crafted with some classic C-hops along with some newer varieties, including Audacia from our friends at Indie Hops. We taste bright grapefruit and peach up front, along with some piney/earthy notes all wrapped up in a full bodied and easy drinking IPA. Cheers to 30 and 31 years!
