Intrinsic Smokehouse Brewery + BBQ Catering

Copy Link

The handcrafted beers at Intrinsic come with a big bonus: barbecue. Not that the brews themselves aren’t reason enough to go — the Garland brewery recently dropped Mission Mix Berlinerweise, a flavor brewed with Tang and released a limited collaborative brew with Scoop and Buns (a doughnut and ice cream shop) called Ube Baltic Porter. There are also tamer options, but why not go a little left of center? 

Lakewood Brewing Company

Copy Link

One can’t talk about stouts in DFW without talking about Lakewood. Temptress — the base beer and the multiple flavor variations it produces, including peanut butter and salted caramel — is the most popular stout in the region. It also has seasonal beers in virtually every style, with a taproom in Garland open seven days a week. In the newly added-on kitchen, guests can enjoy dishes including salads and wraps and hearty comfort foods such as barbecue brisket sandwiches with meat sourced from the nearby Intrinsic Smokehouse and flatbread pizzas.

On Rotation Brewery & Kitchen

On Rotation offers a selection of over 40 different rotating taps. A fan favorite is the Beyoncé-inspired I Woke Up Like This – a mimosa-flavored beer made with a heavy wheat base and bright, orange-forward hops infused with orange juice. This combination makes for a delectable brunch when paired with the signature gluten-free fried chicken.

Celestial Beerworks

Martin House is not your typical brewery. If you’re willing to make the trek to Fort Worth, you have to try some of their unconventional flavors. Notable flavors include the Chex Mix brew, the pizza brew, the buffalo wing brew, and, if you want to kick it up a notch, the sour pickle brew. 

Bishop Cider Company

Copy Link

While many local breweries pride themselves on being large venues, Bishop Cider is a more intimate space. Order some of its signature ciders, like the fan-favorite Apple Pineapple, grab a table with your friends, and bring a card game or board game.
