Rough Diamond Brewery

With his first brew, the award-winning Aloha Piña, and dozens of other handcrafted recipes, the company continues to brew seasonal artisan beers at the new location.

It's a “beautiful and relaxing atmosphere” with fire pits, food trucks on occasion, and live music. In case you’re wondering, “5 Stones” refers to the little-known bible trivia that David carefully chose 5 stones to beat Goliath.

Guadalupe Brewing Company

Craft Brewery in Canyon Lake - 18.33 mi

Guadalupe Brewing Company uses honey as a key ingredient in several of their craft beers. Concern for the honeybee population, therefore, is just one of the many passions by its owners. To this end, the company contributes a portion of the proceeds from the sales of their flagship Texas Honey Ale to support Texas A&M University’s bee research program. The brewery opened its doors in 2012. Owners Keith and Anna Kilker focus on “full-flavored, well-balanced, and approachable” beers using only natural ingredients. Their lineup of award-winning beers includes the Pumpkin Style Texas Honey Ale and their Belgian Style Tripel. Both are medal winners at the U.S. Open Beer Championships, among other creations. Interestingly, head brewer Keith was not your typical experienced homebrewer. He had never brewed beer before. Instead, he studied brewing science at the Siebel Institute just prior to opening his dream brewery.

Boerne Brewery

Craft Brewery in Boerne - 19.56 mi

Boerne, Texas is a town rich in German history, but until the Boerne Brewery was established, the town didn’t have a beer to call its very own. That situation changed in January 2014. Established by husband and wife Fred and Jennifer Castillo, Boerne Brewery aims to produce “beer brewed in Boerne, for Boerne”. Both engineers, Fred got hooked on home brewing when Jennifer gave him a Mr. Beer Kit. Eventually, Jennifer kicked him out of the kitchen and garage, and started searching for a property in the area that could house a brewery. The rest, as they say, is history. Housed in a 6,000 square foot facility, the brewery currently has four main brews and two seasonal offerings. To honor the town’s German roots, their beers are named after a significant piece of Boerne history. The label for each beer is made by local artists, and strengthens their ties to the Boerne community.
