Bars & Breweries

Henry’s Majestic brings together their charged coffee with vanilla-infused bourbon and milk for a smooth, boozy coffee.

Martin House Brewing Company recently partnered with Fort Worth’s iconic Swiss Pastry Shop to create a beer that pays homage to their famed Black Forest Cake. The beer will debut at the brewery on November 11; on tap and for sell in cans.

Brewing beer and fermenting wine mark the beginning of the winding road for Natasha DeHart’s current passion: distilling and blending whiskey. She and her husband Ryan DeHart just released their first blended whiskey in a pivot for their 7-year-old distillery in Lewisville. They’re putting all their chips in their new…

The Pyramid Bar’s Pyramid Smoked Old Fashioned is a treat for the taste buds and a trick for the eyes.

It wasn’t that long ago when trying a local craft beer most likely meant having to personally visit a local brewery. As recently as 2012, beer coolers in North Texas grocery stores might’ve had some Rahr & Sons choices available, but that was about it, really. And even more to…

Tillman’s Bishop Arts will offer two cocktails leading up to the TX/OU game on October 12. Purchase the cocktail of your choice to support your team!

There’s a celebration of sour beer this week at an East Dallas neighborhood bar. You may know it well enough to remember The Great Crash through the front. You may have sped by every day and never noticed, but there it stands. It’s an institution among bars. And the first…

The Ultimate Cocktail Experience comes back for its 8th year on October 13, 2019.

The neighborhood distillery in southern Richardson will finally open this month. When asked when they’re planning to be in business, Evan Batt — who owns Lockwood Distilling Company with his wife Sally — jokes “two months ago.” But now they are in the final stages, assuming the last permits go…

Midnight Rambler’s summer menu offers some tiki-inspired cocktails and others that you’ll just want to take a bite out of.

There’s a new restaurant with a lot going on that popped up in Deep Ellum last week. Ebb and Flow opened quietly in September at 2651 Commerce St. in the spot last occupied by The Parlor on Commerce. It comes from Crafted Bar Concepts, whose portfolio includes Shell Shack and…

There are certain components that make a bar one worth being your neighborhood go-to  — whether that’s in your neighborhood or you have to drive to another one to get there. For me, that involves low lighting, solid staff, a jukebox and at least one food item that is superb…

Some people just can’t handle cider. Even if we’re fans of desserts, when it comes to drinking something cold out of a can, we’re not equipped to take something so sweet we’re going to fall over. Don’t roll your eyes if you are one of those who loves the sweet…

Full disclosure: I appreciate Midnight Rambler, the bougie bar somewhat hiding in the basement of The Joule hotel. I moved downtown to the Central Business District in 2010. There wasn’t a lot, from conveniences to number of residents. We had a new place to walk dogs in Main Street Garden…

A new chapter is beginning for 3 Nations Brewing Co. as it decamps its original brewery in Farmers Branch for new, larger digs in Carrollton. The 4-year-old brewery is moving to 1033 E. Vandergriff Drive on the historic downtown square, just a mile and a half from the original spot…

There is a new spirit in town, have you heard of it? Dallas bartenders are in the know. It’s from Desert Door Texas Sotol, a Hill Country distiller founded by veterans in 2018. Desert Door has been making sotol for a year and a half in Driftwood, Texas, aiming to…

TX Tavern will offer a State Fair-inspired cocktail at their bar on Whiskey Ranch.

This is a fantastic time of year. Maybe you’re the type who rushes to the Starbucks drive-thru when the pumpkin spice latte comes out. Perhaps you’re one who starts wearing sweaters when we finally escape from triple digits. It could be you’re one who’s stoked for the State Fair of…

Receiving a tremendous amount of energetic encouragement from those closest to you is always a positive (unless they’re cheering on your plans to commit suicide, maybe, or invade Poland, or your friend’s name is Giuliani, but broadly speaking, yeah). For a budding brewery owner hoping to turn a longtime hobby…

Omni Hotels now offer a flavor map to help you order the perfect cocktail.

Primo’s MX brings our old favorite back to McKinney Ave with a unique cocktail program and a chance for guests to name a cocktail.

Regardless of the hellish temperatures, fall officially arrives Sept. 23. For many, such a calendar designation means the arrival of football season, getting settled in a new school year or even a new slate of television shows that will almost certainly be canceled within a few weeks. But for many…
