BEER FROM
A GOOD PLACE.

Since 1996, we’ve been brewing in Blanco, surrounded by the natural beauty of the Texas Hill Country. When you get to make beer in a place like this, you develop a greater appreciation for the simpler things in life — fresh air, wide-open spaces, and working with your hands. We're proud to make beer with as little processing as possible. In addition to being unfiltered and unpasteurized, we never use preservatives or artificial colors. We start with water from the nearby Blanco River and the highest quality ingredients. Then we take the time to allow all the unique characteristics of the ingredients to shine. We believe doing less to the beer actually creates more complexity, aroma and flavor.

We focus on making the best beer and not the most beer. — Brad Farbstein, Owner

ONLY IN TEXAS.

We only sell Real Ale in the great state of Texas. Here’s why:

We’re Texans. We care about Texans. So, we want to make sure the people we care about have the highest quality beer possible. And let’s face it, Texans are a thirsty bunch. So, we have our work cut out for us just trying to keep their refrigerators and coolers stocked with Real Ale. Plus, our beers are best when they are kept cold and fresh. The farther away we ship it, the harder it becomes to ensure the quality and integrity of our beer.

The biggest reason why we don't sell beer outside of Texas is because we don’t have to. We’re independent and we don’t answer to insatiable investor demand. We have the freedom to focus on just making the best beer and not the most beer. Making beer is our art, passion and dream. Growing just for the sake of growth is not our motivation. What motivates us is making great beer.

If you happen to be from one of the many places in the world that isn’t Texas, we highly recommend a visit. We’ll welcome you with open taps.
