I haven't had any Urban South yet, I need to go check it out. How's the beer?

Yes. There is better beer being made around town but they have a decent menu and it is a fun place to hang out.

Cool spot and I like that they use some Aussie & NZ hops. It's not just citra and mosaic (not that that's a bad thing).

There are also so many other breweries right in that immediate area that if it's not what you're looking for, you can switch it up easily. Holler, Urban South, Buffalo Bayou right there, then Local Group and Saint Arnold just east of there.

We're looking for somewhere that is a) open, b) serves food or has a food truck, and c) has beer that can be enjoyed by everyone, not just craft beer fans. We're in the Greenspoint area, W. Rankin Rd just W of 45. Close would be nice, but our folks like all over the area, with a handful that stay at the armory during the week.

My Googling came up with Platypus as the best fit, so I figured I'd ask here.

Platypus fits the bill. Local group has also re-opened, Wed-Sun, and they have really good food and a nice good variety of beers.

Give Local Group a try. They have great food and the beer is great too. Not sure about their variety though.

If that doesn't work out you can walk over to Saint Arnold.

The local H-E-B put out some more 2019 Pumpkinator so I get to have some without digging into what I'm aging.

Head downtown and hit up Rodeo Goat, get you a bodacious burger then head across the street to true anomaly. You're welcome.

Has anyone noticed this thread is practically viral with almost 5 million views?

Side note, heading up to Denver in July for a wedding and planning to get some Juicy Bits. Any other breweries I should try?

That is over almost 9 years with people (me) viewing a couple of times per day when new posts are made.

Check out Falling Rock in Denver as well.

Completely agree. I remember trying it for the first time at a beer thread share back in the day and being blown away.

Platypus was a hit yesterday. Not the best beer, but not bad either, good food, and a good space. I hit True Anomaly after for some beer to go as well.
