It’s not beginning to look a lot like Christmas, but ’tis the season to be hoppy and the local brew creatives over at Buffalo Bayou Brewing Co. are back with another blowout Christmas in July party.
There will be no need for daydreaming of cooler months when you’re day drinking from a selection of 30 special beer releases such as Peppermint Gingerbread Stout, Jalapeño Wit, and Peach Rotundone out of your commemorative Buffalo Bayou Brew 13oz Belgium snifter glass.
If you want better odds than a snowball’s chance in Houston at snagging tickets, Buffalo Bayou advises those planning to attend to purchase in advance since their events tend to sell out. Admission for this 21 and up only event covers entertainment, limited edition glassware, and all you can drink responsibly. Click here to purchase tickets in advance.
The Christmas Presents
If you’re in need of good eats to soak up the rare suds, Blood Brothers BBQ will be on site cooking up their famous smoked meats for purchase.
Houston’s homebrewed Brass Ensemble of Houston and We Were Wolves will get the party going with live performances as well. Attendees are encouraged to break out their least appealing holiday attire for the always-competitive Ugliest Sweater Competition.
Buffalo Bayou Brewery has a few more surprises up their sleeves but, much like Christmas presents, you’ll have to wait to find out.
