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.

473mL can. Pours black. Aroma brings out milk chocolate, coconut, vanilla. Flavour has chocolate, lightly roasted malt, coconut, vanilla. Tastes very nice, but not super complex.

16 oz. can, pours jet black with a small tan head and some coconut chunks. Aroma is loaded with tons of coconut, light vanilla and a touch of orange. Flavour has a nice mixture of coconut and orange, with a touch of vanilla. Nice blend of adjuncts, and the base beer is sturdy enough to support it all. Not the most complex pastry imperial stout but well-made. Good.

Can. Pours a pitch black hue with a small brown head. A big sweet boozy nose, chocolate, barrel. Sweet hot barrel balances out big vanilla, fudge, sweet cake. To me this is actually fairly balanced and drinkable. Haha. I've had a lot of really sweet stouts. Quite nice. The barrel is wonderful.

Lilly, honeycomb, lemongrass nose. Cloudy amber, thick head. Honey, dandelion, lilly. Full body, silky mouthfeel, warm. Great balance and intensity. Pleasantly surprised.

Aromas are citrus rind, wet grain, straw and a bit of resin. Flavors are similar to nose, mildly sweet up front with good carbonation, a hop burn and bittersweet finish.

Really smooth but lacks the depth of a DIPA.
