Our Comments: This is a wonderful little brewery and restaurant on the north side of town. They have an ever-changing selection of beers that they brew on premises with plenty of taps to choose from (if you are feeling particularly adventurous, try the Fruity Pebbles gold milk stout). They are also baking up some excellent pizza pies and other tasty dishes, so you certainly cannot go wrong at this place!

From Their Website: Good times from sun up to moon up! Slow food served quick with a beer!

Our Comments: No matter how many breweries I have been to in San Antonio and beyond, I always find myself returning to Weathered Souls for the vast selection and guaranteed first-rate brews. The West Coast IPA is one of the best in the city. (Dare I say the country as well?) The New England IPA Who’s Got the Juice Now? is a good choice as well, and they always have a dark beer to tempt you even if you are not a particular fan of those. This place sets the bar for the other breweries in town and in the surrounding area (pun unintended but accepted).  You can read my tasting review here.

From Their Website: We’re not a chain and our beer is not mass produced. We buy our grain locally and deliver to San Antonio, Houston, Austin and South Texas.

We are independent and with the support of independent loving fans, we intend to stay that way. You can’t be closer to the source of your beer than to sit in the shadow of the fermenter your beer was kegged from days before. If you wander too close to the brewfloor, we’ll try to educate you on all things beer. And maybe you’ll love it. The name says it all, we’re a little weathered by life and really don’t mind it. All part of the adventure…

Weathered Souls is very happy to be a brewery where everyone is welcomed as a member of our brewery family. We have several old-school philosophies about life and business and one driving force is our philosophy that, if the beer is good enough, folks will find out. So we don’t pay for advertising, we rely on word of mouth just like my Dad did. It’ll take longer to grow our business, but it gives us a lot of satisfaction knowing that we succeed because folks care about us and our beer.

So, here’s to seeing you in the taproom someday and Drink Local, Cheers!

Our Comments: The King William Ale is one of the best-of-the-best in San Antonio, and those brisket poppers are the perfect accompaniment. But that is just getting you started. This downtown staple has plenty of beers and food to choose from (including brunch on the weekends) and their deck is a great place to enjoy nice weather and an excellent brew.

From Their Website: The Blue Star Brewing Company opened in 1996 and is located at the beginning of the Mission Reach, a major bike friendly and pedestrian thoroughfare to the city’s cultural and historical features that run along the San Antonio River.

Come visit us today to enjoy a delicious meal and some freshly made organic beer!

From Their Website: Probably the most commonly asked question is where the name comes from… As we sat down to chase the dream of opening our brewery, it became clear that no matter how much we wanted one, there wasn’t a “ROADMAP” to this crazy adventure. All we knew was that “all roads lead to beer,” and with that in mind Roadmap Brewing Co. was born.

Roadmap Brewing Co. is the direct result of an oddball wedding gift that Dustin got from Hannah’s uncle. That’s right, they received a homebrew kit… as a WEDDING GIFT! What started as a fun weekend hobby soon morphed into a passion. Like so many craft brewers before, the beer Dustin was brewing in the garage wasn’t enough to meet demand. With some heavy help from his dad (Co-Founder – Scott) the dream of opening a brewery quickly became a reality.

Our Comments: This may be a chain, but they do brew their own beer (just not on the premises) and they have a full menu with plenty of tasty selections. Their regular beers are quite good and they have a rotating selection of seasonals capped off with their crown jewel the Grand Cru Tripel, which comes out around late-November/early-December each year (and disappears rather quickly). We prefer to support local, especially when it comes to craft beers. But if you have a BJ’s Brewhouse near you, it is worth stopping in to try some of their brews and their food as well.

From Their Website: The vibe and energy of a brewhouse bar. The comforts of a great restaurant. A welcoming crew that makes you feel comfortable in your own skin. Brew is hero. Food is fabulous. You’re the guest of honor.

We started in 1978 with a delicious California twist on deep dish pizza. Today we’ve grown to become the energized, welcoming getaway where craft beer is hero. And a remarkable menu offers something for everyone to love. Guests say we’re their everyday escape — and prove it by coming back time and again.
