Back Pew Brewing makes its home in the hallowed halls of an old church building, but don’t let that fool you into thinking our brewery is conventional. We chart our own course and venture into the beer-brewing unknown. We’re inspired by the unconventional, the strange, and the original. We aren’t afraid to brew boldly, and we never confine ourselves to the straight and narrow. We’re fueled by a passion to create damn good craft beer.
BEERS OF THE MONTH
JULY
KING OF THE HELLES
Helles Lager, 4.5% ABV, 24 IBU
King of the Helles is our new Texas-Style Helles beer! This light beer uses all Texas grown malted barley from TexMalt in Fort Worth. A blend of Pilsner and Munich Malts make this beer lighter and brighter on the front of the palate and gives it a rounded sweetness on the back. We Finish the beer hot side with Hallertau Blanc and Mandarina Bavaria hops to give it a citrusy flavor. This beer is so crisp and refreshing, the only thing you’ll want to say is… “yup”. Look for it in grocery stores and your favorite watering hole around the Greater Houston area!
HOPZUNA
Juicy/Hazy Double IPA, 8.7% ABV, 43 IBU
Approaching our hero, Tanuki, is this impending Sumo hop of destruction! Wrecking pallets with intense Citra and Azacca flavor and aroma, this DIPA is sure to give Tanuki a fierce battle! This beer is a Kveik fermented double IPA with oats for a soft flavor, and is heavily kettle hopped in a whirlpool with Citra and Azacca. We then give it a silly amount of dry hops to make it a double dry hopped beauty.

OUR STORY
Bobby Harl, PhD, MBA – Founder and Brewmaster
Bobby’s passion for brewing beer started in 2008 on a home-brew set, and only grew from there. While earning his PhD and MBA at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Bobby also worked with those who came to be his mentors, Steve Scoville and Michael Kwas, who started Little Harpeth Brewing Company. The experience gained at Little Harpeth helped Bobby develop a further appreciation for both the technical and artistic sides of brewing.
In 2014, Bobby returned home to Houston with a dream of crafting beers full of flavor, rich character, and building an awesome place for friends and family to enjoy them. Thus began Back Pew Brewing.
