Two weeks ago I teased two of the beers for SMABRD’15, and today I’m here to announce the date, a few details, and announce one of the other two beers. First, the most important thing, the date. SMABRD’15 will be on August 29, 2015. Details: This will be held at our new brewery located at … Continued
Hey gang, I’m going to keep this relatively brief because I am not ready to unveil the full details yet, but I can confirm that Super Mega Awesome Bottle Release Day is coming back for 2015! SMABRD’15 will feature four wood-aged beers – three new ones and one old favorite. I don’t have a date … Continued
So here I am again, about to embark on a long-winded blog post about a topic that may in fact be bad for my own well-being in the long-run. It won’t be the first time, hopefully it won’t be the last. If you haven’t heard by now, a handful of Houston-area bars have agreed to … Continued
