Description
Bexar County Brewery was born out of the need for newer more creative beers to be produced in England. The days of only having a handful of styles of beers to drink are ending, and we are part of that change. A beer revolution is occurring, and I am proud to be on the front lines.

Please have a look around. Here you will find loads of useful information (and plenty of rubbish as well) about the brewery as well as updates on beers being produced and where you may find them.

Cheers!

Cask gravity at Pig’s Ear 2013. It pours darkest brown with a minimal beige head. The nose is rich, boozy, rum, roasted malt, toast, earth, candy, spice and cola cubes. The taste is wood, earth, warming alcohol, candy, cola, vanilla, liquorice, chewy malt, toast and a touch of spice, Full body, soft carbonation and oily mouth-feel. Not a whole lot of depth, but good fun.
