Description
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.

Second Son from Mason Ale Works

6.8/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 9 Flavor 6 Texture 4 Overall 7
Medium dark brown color. Very rich sweet boozy nose with tons of oak, caramel, dark fruit, roasted malts, burnt raisins, brown sugars in the nose. Thin mouth, fairly boozy, a bit rough, tons of whiskey notes with dark fruit and roasted malts. Just too rough and boozy in mouth to be enjoyable. Very warming finish. Nice nose but quickly goes down hill.

Pour is a clear amber with a large white head. Aroma is oily hops with some caramel malt. Flavor is a heavy almost roasted malt with a very minor hop. Finish is a little bitter but a bit too malty to let the hops do their thing.
