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
SHINY
Double New England IPA, 8.1% ABV, 18 IBU
We decided to make a galactic attempt at a double NEIPA, and thus, Shiny was born. Full of Comet, Centennial, and Citra hops, this beer is cold-whirlpooled (thus the low IBU count) so we could pack in more flavor, before getting a double dry hop of all three hops! Very hazy as per style, think of it as a cluster of stars. Just keep flyin’ ya’ll!
KOLSCH
Kolsch, 5% ABV, 18 IBU
Kölsch. A beautiful beer style from Germany- crispy, clean, lagered beer with a straw/hay color. This beer, as with most in this series, is meant to be beer flavored beer, brewed beautifully for an excellent drinking experience. It’s the summer in Houston- so the hot times call for cold beers that go down and try to put out the flames. You’ve found one of the beers to help you do that.
PARTIES

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.
