Texas On Tap is thrilled to have such a fantastic support group from the following organizations!
Bridgeport Brewing Company (www.bridgeportbrew.com), based in Portland, Oregon,
is Oregon's oldest and best known brewery. Their portfolio of beers includes Bridgeport IPA, ESB, and the 2006 summer seasonal Supris just to name a few.
Please look for these beers as they are distributed in Texas, and if you cannot find them at your favorite bar or restaurant ask the management to
include them as part of their beer menu!
Saint Arnold Brewery (www.saintarnold.com) is based in Houston, Texas. Best known
for their Lawnmower and Amber beers, their impressive lineup of beers is amazing! No matter what your taste for craft beer, Saint Arnold has something
to quench your thirst. Personally, I recommend their Ellisa IPA, a hoppy beer that stands it's ground with any other IPA on the market.
Paulaner (www.paulaner.com) is one of the world's most recognized brands! Based in Germany, they have a line-up of beers that is the envy of all brewers. And, has anyone ever heard of Oktoberfest? That's obviously a rhetorical question. The biggest beer party in the world only serves six labels of beer at the event, and Paulaner is well represented. This brewer is one of our favorties, and we typically host our own Oktoberfest event with them each year. Prost!
Boulevard Brewery (www.boulevard.com) is based in Kansas City, Missouri. Being one of the most well known beers in the Central US, it took awhile for them to make it to Texas. But, the wait is over! Bourlevard began distributing beer to Texas in late 2007. Try their beers, you won't be disappointed.
Abita Brewery (www.abita.com) is one of the most famous landmarks in Louisiana. This brewery located just north of New Orleans has grown such a loyal following since they openned their doors, they had to move just to keep up with demand. Not only do they have a full portfolio of year-round beers, but their seasonal offering is impressive. If you can catch their Spring Bock make sure to give it a try, I highly recommend this one!
Where do I start? Heineken (www.heinekenusa.com) is a label that needs no explanation!
This Holland brewery has been brewing fantastic beer for hundreds of years. However, few people know how many beers are distributed under the Heineken
label. These beers include Amstel Light, Tecate, Dos Equis, Bohemia, Carta Blanca, Sol, Murphy's, Moretti, Fisher, Affligem, Hacker Pschorr, and Paulaner.
What a lineup! If you like European beers this is one stop shopping.
Located in nothern Colorado, a state that embraces the Craft Beer industry, is the town of Fort Collins and home of New Belgium Brewing
Company (www.newbelgium.com). Best known as the maker of Fat Tire, the portfolio of beers coming out of this
brewery is fantastic! From their lighter beers such as the 2006 seasonal Skinny Dip and Blue Paddle, to the darker, more bold 1554, there is always
something on tap from this brewery. If you happen to be traveling to Fort Collins make sure to swing by for a tour! The facility is great, the staff
friendly, and a sample at the end is a pleasure!

The Tipperary Inn (www.tippinn.com), has been a landmark on the fringes of Lakewood at the junction of Live Oak and Skillman since 1994. It was remodeled in 2000 and now exhibits the interior of an authentic Irish Pub to which people's reation is rarely one of indifference when entering for the first time. There are two distinct personalities to the premises. The Tipperary Inn side where key features include the absence of TV's and other distractions in a room where the character is created by an abundance of rich wood paneling accentuated by decorated glass panels and enhanced by soft lighting. McCarthy's Bar on the other side has a totally different feel with light wood fixtures and furniture.
We look forward to sharing a drink with you at our next gathering.
