Metal and Beer Part Two. Check out Part One here. After a quick breakfast Friday morning, we visited the historical Reading Terminal Market to peruse. All of the shops weren’t quite open yet, but it was cool to see all the fresh seafood, produce, local cheeses and meats getting setup for the day. There were […]

Last year during Houston Beer Week the Petrol Station collaborated with Beaver’s for a beer dinner that was beyond amazing, you can read my recap here. Ben from Petrol is known for getting his hands on some great and rare beers and Chef Jones at Beaver’s is known for his excellent food and always using […]

Ben over at Petrol Station is one lucky, connected dude. He managed to score 10 different vintage Dogfish Head Beers, right out of Sam Calagione‘s private stash to put together a scavenger hunt in Houston.  On Petrol’s Facebook a cryptic message was posted to let everyone know about the hunt: “This event is a scavenger […]

Through Facebook a friend and I discovered that a new bar/Burger/wing/pizza place, the Pub Hub, would be opening today at 4PM with drink and food specials. If we only knew! Erin was the very first customer (obviously free beer for life, right?) and I met her there shortly after. I started with a BrewDog 5AM […]

I’m sure most of you have heard of Houston Beer Week, starting Sunday October 10 and ending Sunday October 17, with a bang- Monsters of Beer.  So I decided to lay out my plans for the week and try to squeeze as much in as possible! Monday October 11: Beer dinner at Beaver’s. JJ from […]

So when I first saw someone post on twitter that tonight at Flying Saucer (tonight was also Brew Nite featuring the annual FS Oktoberfest Stein, 2fer!) in downtown they would be Randalling a Dogfish beer (first it was Palo Santo but the distributor apparently ran out so now it is Punkin Ale) I was like […]

October is a great month: Halloween, the start of fall, seasonal beers are everywhere in sight and of course all the great things happening in Houston! I recently bought my ticket to Saint Arnold‘s Oktoberfest bash at the Brewery for Saturday October 2nd, which includes food, beer (DUH) and a sweet Oktoberfest stein. I will […]

After delicious pizza at Candelari’s on Washington in the Heights we (the Wises and I) decided to head over to Petrol Station to grab some beers. This dive bar used to be a gas station (oh really?!) and when you walk in there is an L shaped bar and a few tables plus the back […]

After a lazy Labor Day, and a crazy weekend with great friends and plenty of beer, I decided to crack open my first Dogfish Head Punkin Ale of the year. Back in June, I was invited by my favorite married couple (Jdawg and CWise) to a beer dinner at Vic and Anthony’s downtown that featured […]

Don’t judge me for drinking both a Heineken and a delicious, rare Dogfish Head beer in one sitting, as well as some Malbec, haha! Both are something I’ve never tried before, and I have to say (obviously) the the Dogfish Head was amazing, and the Heineken was better than expected. I loved Heineken at 0° […]
