About
We started a Brewery as a means to contribute to a truly artisan craft. We believe in friendship before finance and are happy to help others in this industry as we have been helped by those who came before us. We are bold believers in the fact that a well made beer can cool your spirit and warm your soul.

Our flagship Mason Ale Works production brewery opened in 2017 at our San Marcos Urge Common House Location. Here JJ “Sweet Meat” Jimenez, our Director of Brewing Operations, helms the wheel. All of our can releases like our popular Jambi West Coast IPA and Respeto Mexican Lager are brewed and canned in these four walls. We also crank out an extensive line-up of one-off releases out of here.

Bottle shared by Tom, thanks! Pours near black with a brown head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has dark grains, toffee, roasted malts and a decent amount of bourbon coming through. Flavor has strong dark grains and roasted malts with toffee and bourbon supporting.

Cash Stout from Mason Ale Works

7/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 6 Overall 7
Pretty clumsy imperial coffee stout, but still enjoyable despite its heavy-handed profile. Starts with an unexpectedly thick, gooey chocolate sweetness, yet quickly dries out, bringing out a deep anise and bitter espresso middle before the hops create a rich, roasty back end. Dark cherry, pine, and caramel notes pop up in the finish, while the fade grows boozy and somewhat abrasive. Mocha nose is lovely, as is the dark, viscous black pour. Again, the feel's off, harsh and warm, but otherwise a decent pint.

Can into a snifter showing pitch black with sparse clean white foam. The nose shows pronounced notes of green pepper and coffee bean. The palate is light bodied and lightly carbonated. Pronounced flavors of black coffee with a moderately intense coffee bitterness.
