Below is the list of the best winter craft beer and whiskies we could find!!  Angry Orchard Cinnful Apple is sweet with a slight heat. The juicy apple notes are complemented by cinnamon spice for a cider that is refreshing and smooth, yet warming. It's the perfect choice for the colder months and holiday drinking occasions ahead.  German brewers were onto something centuries ago when they created rich bock beers for the winter. Our version is spiced with cinnamon, ginger, and orange peel for a deep flavor and malty finish that will warm you on a cold winter night.  Jolly Traveler is a cheerful winter beer inspired by the senses of the season. A wheat beer made with real orange, pomegranate and holiday spices, this Traveler is a refreshing libation for the season of festivity.  Crispin Original is crisp and refreshing, with fruit-forward green apple flavor and a subtle citrus aroma.  Yes, this is a sweet stout, but it's not cloyingly sweet — it finishes rather dry, actually. There's a hint of chocolate, along with a tiny tinge of spice — a cinnamon sort of vibe. Behind these two dominant aromas lives a huge roasty malt layer, typical of many an American Stout.  Intense pure liquid cacao flavors swirl with popping coconut aromas, all supported by a semi-sweet porter made from loads of our dark chocolate and extra dark caramel malt.  Rich and malty, brewed with caramel and darker malts that create its amber color. Using authentic Altbier yeast imported from Germany, Alt provides subtle toffee notes on the nose and finishes smooth.  Our Holiday IPA is a hearty American-style India Pale Ale that delivers a spicy, northwest hops bitterness with a cheery citrus and floral aroma.  Sometimes rhubarb gets a bad rap. It’s a vegetable that masquerades as a fruit and almost always gets paired up with its much more celebrated friend, strawberry. Well, rhubarb finally gets half the stage with Not Your Mom’s Strawberry Rhubarb, a flavored craft brew that reminds of you the fresh pies Mom used to take out of a box she got at the local bakery.  Born from owner Brad Farbstein’s homebrewing experiments in college — our porter is a rich, robust ale with a dry finish. Fresh, cold-brewed organic fair trade coffee courtesy of Katz Coffee in Houston, TX is added just prior to packaging. Whiskey Selections are below:  Aged in new charred American white oak barrels, this bourbon has a subtle aroma of fresh fruit and a taste that includes hints of dried apricot, ripe pear and a sweet roasted grain. The finish has notes of charred oak and warm winter spices.  The subtlety and complexity of Bulleit Bourbon come from its unique blend of rye, corn, and barley malt, along with special strains of yeast and pure Kentucky limestone filtered water. Due to its especially high rye content, Bulleit Bourbon has a bold, spicy character with a finish that's distinctively clean and smooth. Medium amber in color, with gentle spiciness and sweet oak aromas. Mid-palate is smooth with tones of maple, oak, and nutmeg. Finish is long, dry, and satiny with a light toffee flavor.  Concentrated flavors of rich oak and subtle vanilla lead to a long finish with hints of maple, butter and smoke. A whisky with enormous depth, range and personality – considered by many to be the gold standard of Tennessee Whisky.  Sweet and nutty and just plain delicious! It's sweet as Pecan Pie, but it's made with whiskey, so it's not too sweet!  Let's face it, holidays can be a crazy time of the year! We are here to take your blues out of this time of year and supply you with some friends, beer and parties! We have a few different dates for you to join us:  UFC 217 Fight Night Saturday, November 4th 6:00 pm Come join us in watching UFC 217 Bisping vs St-Pierre, your official UFC Sports Bar!

It's that time of year again to celebrate the holidays. There's no better way than with craft beer and homemade Christmas cookies. Our bar manager, Heather, is sharing her grandmother's homemade secret cookie recipe with us and in return we are sharing them with our guest. So for $5 you can sample our ten holiday themed craft beers, have Christmas cookies and receive a raffle ticket that could win you Spurs tickets, bar swag and more. Honestly, Santa might skip his milk and cookies just to visit us instead. This month's craft beer and cookie tasting will be on December 15th from 7-9 p.m. Feel free to bring your holly jolly spirit and even wear your ugly Christmas sweater if you feel so inspired.   Saint Arnold Brewery will have two of their Texas craft beers for sample: Sailing Santa and White Noise. Sailing Santa has a flavor profile of nutmeg followed with brown sugar to give it a sweeter taste. White Noise is a golden yellow that is sweet with a floral crisp. The crisp taste will go well with our Peppermint Chocolate Chip cookie! Big Sky Brewing Co. is showcasing their Powder Hound Winter Ale. Their ale has elements of gingerbread and caramel, which will pair well with our Snickerdoodle cookie! Abita Brewing Co.'s Christmas Ale will bring all the feels of Christmas with the taste of a holiday spice and a hazel color pour. This brew will go well with our Butterscotch cookie, nom nom nom.  New Belgium Brewing will also have two of their craft beers for sample: Accumulation and Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Ale. I don't know about you but CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE DOUGH, oooh that sounds so good, with some Sugar cookies. Damn. I already gained two pounds. Magic Hat Brewery will make way through your palette with their Snow Roller. The Snow Roller has flavors of biscuit and caramel and go well with our Oatmeal Raisin cookie. Sierra Nevada Brewery will get you ready for the New Year with their Celebration craft. This craft has a earthy taste with pine being the focal point.  Karbach Brewing Co. is very punny with their Yule Shoot Your Eye Out craft. This craft is full of holiday spices but the emphasis is on ginger and cinnamon.
Goose Island Beer Co. is our roasted chocolate nuts sitting by the warm fire with their Winter Ale. Definitely inspires some great campfire caroling. This holidy season is the perfect time to have some drinks and enjoy friends and family. So join our email list to see more of our upcoming festivities!
Let's first start off by saying this:
December 8th is Bartender's Appreciation Day! A day where we celebrate and thank the men and women on the other side of the bar who give up their late nights so you can have yours. You're welcome.
Back in the day there was a little thing called the "prohibition" where it was actually illegal to drink anything alcoholic (the audacity!) But a hero in 1933 lifted that prohibition on December 5th giving all future generations the wonderful gift of liquid courage. In honor of this mysterious super hero, Sailor Jerry has decided to dedicate the first Monday of December to appreciate bartenders everywhere! This year it just so happens to fall on the historical December 5th. Why Monday? Because even though your work week might be coming to end when the clock hit's 5 that Friday afternoon, us bartenders need to suit up and get ready for the beginning of our work week. So, yes. Monday is our Friday. How can you show love to your bartender tonight? Here is a list of commandments you should always follow.
10 Patron Commandments
1. Always say please and thank you! 2. Stop talking, and listen to your bartender's stories for a change. 3. If you and your friends are ordering more than one drink, order them all at the same time. Don't make your bartender run laps. 4. Be ready to pay! 5. Your bartender is not your mother or your cleaning lady. Clean up after yourself. 6. When closing out your tab. Please round up. 7. Buy your bartender and bar back a shot! 8. Keep your drink on the coaster. We didn't put it there for fun. 9. Last call means last call. 10. Bring your friends! 
Now for those who think bartending is a super easy job...take this little quiz and see how you would do! LOL
How did you do? Comment your results below! So go out there and thank the person who is responsible for making your nights something to remember or something you might not remember!
We might be in Texas, and the weather outside might not be frightful, but we're sure you'll appreciate the warm and wintery selections we'll have for you.
By now, you should know the drill, but for you newcomers, here's how all of this works: For an incredible $5.00, you'll get 10 samples of craft beer, plus entry into our beer themed raffle that is pulled every 30 minutes. In honor of the holiday season, we're doing something special. In addition to the 10 craft beers, you'll also receive 3 whiskey samples that are sure to give you a warm and fuzzy feeling.
