    So thought I would let locals who like beer know about an event coming up this Saturday. Cool Springs Brewery's 5th Anniversary party. I don't work for them, but I am buddies with the brewer and a supporter of what they are doing. Anyway it is from 11-4 this Saturday. There are a limited amount of tickets left I believe but no idea of how many.

    You can get tickets here: Eventbrite

    Here is the details and beer list....warning, it's an epic list:

    Announcing our 5th year anniversary. Saturday October 25th, 11-4pm.

    In October of 2009, beer was legally brewed in Williamson County for the first time. To celebrate this momentous day, we are going to be throwing a bash from 11-4 at the brewpub. 45 beers will be available. Some oldies but goodies, some new that you’ve never seen, and some will be experimental beers. We will be digging out aged beers, barrel aged, and sour beers.

    Sour beer is a class of beer where wild yeasts or bacteria are introduced to the beer. Alot of times a certain strain is added in a controlled environment like traditional brewing, but many breweries, especially in europe, they do open fermentation and allow the natural yeasts and bacteria to do the work. Some of the oldest breweries in the world do this. What you end up with is a beer that is, well, sour. Often they are fruit beers, like lambics. They have almost a more wine characteristic. I often find folks that don't like beer but like sours. Very popular style right now.

    Blue Moon and Shock Top? Man you're missing alot of MUCH better beer out there.

    As far "Guido's", I knew when they first open (old owners) the place would close down. When they opened it, it was NOTHING like the original that was behind San Antonio Taco. They turned it into a piano bar. They still have the pizza there and it is good. But I usually go for the fish and chips which is the real deal. Plus "Guido's Brewing" doesn't really do it especially since it is owned by a british couple now. But they make really good beer, so they can call it whatever they want.
