The Dallas/Fort Worth area is huge and, therefore, it boasts a ton of awesome local craft breweries. We’ve got a list of five of the best that you should definitely add to your list, whether you are a resident or are just passing through.Deep Ellum Brewing Co -- DallasDeep Ellum Brewing Co was actually the first craft brewery in Dallas, making it a must-visit in the area. They have continued to develop the boldness of their brand since opening its doors in 2011. Currently, they offer 16 beers in their Dallas taproom, each one with a distinct flavor profile. You are sure to feel anything but the status quo while visiting this brewery.Denton County Brewing Co. -- DentonThis brewery is located directly in downtown Denton, and it’s often described as an adult playground. Denton County Brewing Co curates a laid-back environment where you can retreat after a long day at work or to join friends for some daytime suds. The brewery is locally owned and serves not only independently crafted beers but also wine, cider, sake, and the occasional guest brew. Games, trivia nights, and more are always welcome at the Denton County Brewing Co.Bitter Sisters Brewing -- AddisonBitter Sisters Brewing is a family affair! That makes it a tight-knit group that curates only the best for its community. Theirs is a simpler tasting room than some of the others on this list, which only adds to the close-knit atmosphere. And if you want to see how the beer gets made, you can join them for a Saturday tour.Pegasus City Brewery -- DallasPegasus City Brewery prides itself on the drinkability of its beers. Each one is developed to have an incredibly balanced flavor profile. On the menu, you’ll find a list of classics, as well as some more adventurous brews. But rest assured each is as delicious as the last. The brewery has been open since 2011 and views craft beer as not just a recreational activity, but an art form.Four Bullets Brewery -- RichardsonThe story behind Four Bullets is a fun one. The venture started with a home brewing kit and two friends who were determined to begin creating their own delicious beers. They soon decided to expand their home brewing system to that of a scaled-down commercial model and, after several more years, they took the leap to debut their beers to the public. The rest, as they say, is history. The history of the establishment can be tasted in every beer.Next time you’re looking for some great, local craft beers, check out one of these places!

Sampling craft beers is a beloved pastime that stretches well across the four corners of the globe, and beer festivals have a culture all their own. Whether you’re a timid first-timer or a seasoned veteran, this list will help you learn how to navigate the typical beer fest with ease. Here are the basics of what to expect from your standard craft beer festival:SO MANY Craft Beer Options…Duh! It’s a beer fest! There will be so many options that you may be overwhelmed with choices. Check out the beer list ahead of time and make a plan to hit your favorite brewery’s booth, snag a taste of a few limited edition brews, and still have room to try new-to-you beers from the list that spark your interest. Alternatively, you may wander aimlessly through the maze of vendors and enjoy many happy accidents, try a little of this and a little of that, and discover new favorites along the way. Choose your own adventure!Phenomenal Food VendorsGreat beer and delicious food are the two hallmarks of a spectacular beer festival. The food truck and vendor fare are often made up of classic beer companions, usually consisting of burgers, pizza, hotdogs, tacos, pretzels, BBQ, and more. However, a few surprises will await from honey spiced duck and braised lamb shanks to kale and snap pea salads. Eat well, and often! Make sure you’re not drinking on an empty stomach – split entrees with friends and try several different vendors to make the most of your festival experience.Brewery FreebiesAre there any two words sweeter together than free stuff? Craft breweries often bring tons of branded beer merch to hand out at beer fests – string bags, koozies, sunglasses, coasters, keychains and the like are all up for grabs. Don’t weigh yourself down with one of everything – it’s okay to turn down things you don’t absolutely love or won’t use.Additional Tips for a Great Beer Festival Experience:Wear sun protection.Nothing ruins a good vibe faster than a painful sunburn. Plan ahead for outdoor festivals and wear appropriate protective gear like a hat, a UV-rated top, and SPF to make sure you will enjoy the memories and can skip the aloe for the foreseeable future. Hashtag no regrets.Stay hydrated!Hydration is key to a successful event (and to avoiding a gnarly hangover the following day). In between every round of cheers, slam a glass (or two) of H2O. Drinking water also helps you pace yourself so you can keep the good times rollin’. Use the buddy system: have a friend remind you to drink water and vice versa.Have a plan to get home (and a backup just in case).Whether home for the night is a nearby hotel or your own cozy digs, make sure you can get there safely after a long day of drinking. Bring a designated driver, get a bus pass ready, or plan to take a cab or an Uber to leave the beer fest. Prepare a Plan A and B in the event that something unexpected happens: cabs are full, your DD accidentally overindulges, or you misjudge your limit and suddenly can’t drive home. Don’t get behind the wheel if you’re not sober enough to drive.Familiarize yourself with festival policies before you go.What is the tasting limit? Is there a limit? What Covid policies and procedures are they enforcing? Is water readily available or should you take a refillable bottle just in case? Do you need to have extra cash on hand for tipping or food vendors? These are all great questions to ask yourself to prepare for a festival and the answers can often be found on the festival’s website.Now you’re an expert in the ways of the beer fest and ready to plan your experience!

The passion the chef puts into his food is clearly tasted in this exquisite small menu of unique dishes. One of our favorites had to be the Pork Tomahawk Schnitzel with mustard cream, onion fennel relish, and brown butter spaetzle. The size of this thing alone will take you aback. If you are looking for a place to awaken your tastebuds in the Quad Cities, Kitchen Brigade should be near the top of your list. This restaurant is located inside Stompbox Brewery, which by the by has some amazing brews. Some of our team was in Davenport Iowa for an event and as we do in every city found a brewery that serves food as well; nothing better than a great meal and flight of delicious beer after a long 12-hour day. We were not going into the evening expecting to be WOW'd, but we sure were wrong. You would not suspect the level of culinary delight from a small kitchen window in a local brewery; in Davenport IA for that matter. (No offense to all you Davenport'ers, but you know what we mean this level of food is normally found in large metropolitan cities). From the moment our appetizers arrived, we knew we were in for a treat. The meal was flawless and the chef even made a point to come out to every table to ensure all of his guests were happy. If you are even in Davenport, be sure to give Kitchen Brigade a try!  https://localbrews.beer/news-articles/kitchen-brigade-davenport-ia 8d4112ce0aabe7aeef422c136a222624 Fri, 22 Apr 2022 14:03:00 +0000 Beer Team News
