Description
Buffalo Bayou Brewing Co. was founded in 2011 by Rassul Zarinfar and Ryan Robertson as an effort to bring Houston the type of beer they both love to drink.
What began with a home-brewer's vision, sprouted to producing & self-distributing only draught in 2012 and all the way to 8,000 barrels produced in kegs, cans and bombers, state wide distribution and 74 total beers in 2018.

Pour into a plastic cup at the brewery a couple of days ago. The color was a copper-caramel with a sort of silvery taupe skim. The taste opened bitter and sweet somehow, followed by grain, plums raisins, malt and white bread. The beer strikes me as having more of a regular beer taste with a barleywine effect than a traditional barleywine ale. Not bad, just different.

12 oz can from Total Wine, San Antonio, TX. Pours a crystal clear amber color with a large khaki head and very good retention. Looks like an Oktoberfest. Light lacing. Caramel malt aroma. Caramel malt flavor to match the aroma. Tastes like an Oktoberfest too. Lightly crisp mouthfeel. Very clean and smooth. Easily repeatable. Not bitter. The 40 IBU is undetectable. Really good beer.

12 oz can from Total Wine, San Antonio, TX. Pours a hazy gold color with a small white head and decent retention. Almost no lacing. Light citrus and bread aroma. The taste is similar to the nose. Light citrus (but stronger than the nose) and bread flavors mix together with some creaminess in the mouthfeel. Has a crisp start and a flat finish. Very clean and un-grainy.

12 oz can from Total Wine, San Antonio, TX. Pours a hazy gold color with a white head and good retention. Almost no lacing. Barely there vanilla aroma. Initial grainy flavor, then some light vanilla flavor and finally a short malt liquor bite in the finish. Semi-creamy mouthfeel. Low carbonation. Medium body. No bitterness. A better than average cream ale.
