Armadillo Ale Works

Craft Brewery in Denton - 5.93 mi

It was a long road to opening their own brewery for Armadillo Ale Works founders Bobby Mullins and Yianni Arestis. The brewery finally opened its doors on June 1, 2018, but their story starts much earlier. It actually starts in 2010 when the resilient duo won a grant to pursue their dream of brewing their own beers. Since then, they’ve run a successful Kickstarter campaign, had a location deal that went south, and overcame alienating their fans because of a supply disruption. Uniquely, the brewery claims the distinction of having won prestigious industry awards without ever having its own brewing facility. Now settled at their Denton location, they continue to craft their award-winning beers and sodas. They even brew coffee at the taproom. The space is also available for special event venue rentals, with liquid refreshments from the brewery, of course.

Denton County Brewing Company

Craft Brewery in Denton - 6.22 mi

The brewery has been serving craft beers “born and brewed in Denton” since 2017. Besides their house brews, they also serve a selection of wine, sake, ciders, and beers from other local breweries. For $1,000, customers can buy a “Biersal”. With reference to German mythical folklore, Biersal members get a free beer for life.

Bitter Sisters Brewing Company

Craft Brewery in Addison - 18.51 mi

Bitter Sisters Brewing Company is the only production brewery in Addison. An independent, family-owned craft brewery, it takes its name from the three "type-A McHugh sisters". Baby brother and wife are part of the business, too, as are the sisters’ husbands. Together, they own Bitter Sisters, and each doing his or her part so the company can produce award-winning craft beers. This makes the brewery and the taproom a real family affair, with beers that have memorable and distinctly female names like Hissy Fit, Cat Fight, Winter Bush, Girls Quad, Bitch Slap, Knock Out, and Busy Body. The brewery started coming together when Brewmaster Matt Ehinger married one of the sisters, Courtney, and quickly realized that beer – his home-brewed beer – made everyone less “bitter”.

Brutal Beerworks

Craft Brewery in North Richland Hills - 21.32 mi

Brutal Beerworks owners Eric Johnson, Sallie McIntyre, and Jason Perez named their craft brewery after the “brutal” journey towards opening their dream business. Eric had been a passionate homebrewer and Jason is a professional brewer at another brewery. The two met, and with Sallie joining to do the stuff that neither wants to do, they were on their way to building their dream. Or so they thought. The dream took a “brutal” route including application delays due to the government shutdown. Fundraising and many other problems came their way. Finally, on Father’s Day 2019, they opened the brewery to the public and became North Richland Hills’ first brewery. The owners initially came up with a different name for Brutal Beerworks, but in the end, the name seemed fitting. Brutal, yes, but (or is it “and”?) it’s definitely good beer according to initial reviews. On a side note, Eric’s giving away free beer to the first person to give the original name they thought of for the brewery.

Turning Point Beer

Craft Brewery in Bedford - 21.33 mi

The owners of Turning Point Beer had another name in mind for their brewery. Luckily, they settled on “Turning Point”, which appropriately describes the different milestones they accomplished to get where they are. These milestones, among others, include two of its founders working for “two of DFW’s most respected craft beer breweries” prior to putting up their own. They also had to win the support of the Bedford community, some of whom opposed the opening of the brewery. Despite the challenges, they finally opened on March 2018. The owners chose the Mid-Cities location because it “is where a lot of people live”. The brewery specializes in New England-style hazy beers, with one publication saying they put “unique spins on underrepresented beers”. The owners hope “to mark a ‘turning point’ for craft beer” in the neighborhood. By the way, you have six seconds to guess what the name of the brewery could have been.
