breweries don't need to have barrel aged this or sour this to succeed, because very few people drink ONLY those. A huge amount of craft drinkers still want an IPA, a stout, a light or fruited offering, the typical seasonals, etc. This is the neighborhood brewery. They may never distribute out their taproom, let alone outside of Houston. This model has proven to work in markets way more saturated than Houston. Houston is still easily the least saturated market with say 500k people plus.Texan_Aggie said:
It seemed like the concept or execution of concept was not fully developed. I am not a beer snob by any means, but the selection was minimal and the quality of it was average (nothing special). With the market becoming more saturated, it's hard for me to get into new breweries especially if they merely are making the same thing that the big guys do.
To put it in perspective, You listed ~15 breweries in Houston. The Houston metro population would have to be about 500,000 for it to be on par with Denver or Seattle metro per capita.
Or, with Houston's current population, there would need about 300 breweries to be equal.
*very rough approximate numbers.

Gotcha.
I hope Galveston Island does well. I really like their Citra Mellow.
Fire Ant Brewing ever going to open up, tried their beers last year at the Bugs and Brew fest .

Did St. As already get posted? I didn't see it. Better safe than sorry.62strat said:There is a St As AND a Saint Arnolds in Houston??? Man I've been gone too long.The Wonderer said:Saint ArnoldsBigPuma said:B52jetch17 said:

I was in Albuquerque recently and I was told they have around 32 breweries. For a population of 700k that seems excessive. By comparison Houston still has less breweries than Albuquerque which seems absurd.
There is a very large segment of the Houston population that will never venture away from their Bud Light/Miller Lights. Not so much in Albuquerque.ea1060 said:

How's that?
Fetching lab was left off as well. I know of a few others that have names and Llc's but nothing more yet.
It really is delicious. I liked the Citra Double IPA when they had it too.
I also forgot Baa Baa Brewhouse is now up and open in Brookshire off of 359.
edit: for a question
Which ones that actually brought products to market failed besides Fort Bend Brewing in the last 5 years?

I was looking on the Platypus Brewing website and was wondering if they have any kind of out door seating? I want to check them out this weekend, but its going to be so great out... I'd like to drink outside if possible

Anyone know which beer is best to try at Back Pew? Thinking of heading over there to see what food trucks they have in the next couple weekends and have a few of their beers.
