The second annual Brew and Vinos Festival is coming to Stafford, just a short trip from Houston, Katy, and Pearland.
The midday outdoor event offers an afternoon – or two – of mingling, sampling and savoring the good life. Guests can sip their day away in the VIP tent outside the Stafford Centre, sampling beer and wine, and browsing the wares of artisan vendors.
The festival will also coincide with the Sugar Land Home and Garden Show, taking place next door within the Stafford Centre. Now through Saturday, January 21, festival-goers can purchase Combo Early Bird two-day passes for $29 which offer entry to both the Home and Garden Show as well as Brew and Vinos.

Two-Day Festival
Both days will have their unique character and offerings.
On Saturday, participating breweries will be offering tastings from rare specialty kegs and even a wine auction, while Sunday will see the second annual Brew and Vinos Beer Competition, which will select a single Audience Choice winner selected by festival-goers. Beer enthusiasts are going to want a two-day pass.
Sunday’s beer competition will be decided by the votes from festival participants in a single Audience Choice pick that will be announced once all the votes are tallied on Sunday.
Admission includes a beer tasting card (good for eight 3-ounce pours of beer), shopping with artisan vendors, one-off kegs, the wine auction, and the beer competition. Additional tasting cards are available for purchase for $6 and food trucks will be on site with grub available for purchase.
The Brews
Craft brews on tap for the festival include Buffalo Bayou Brewing Co, No Label Brewing Co, Lone Pint Brewery, Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Ale, Southern Star Brewing, Karbach Brewery, Spindletap Brewery, Saloon Door Brewing, Adelberts Brewery, Alamo Beer, Under the Radar Brewery, and 11 Below Brewery, plus others. Don’t forget about the rare keg tappings on Saturday and the beer competition, taking place on Sunday.
The Wines
Sip on locally made vino from Dionisio Winery, Braman Winery, and Water2Wine Houston Winery, among others. You’ll have the opportunity to sample full-bodied reds, crisp, refreshing whites and everything in between.
A portion of the proceeds will benefit Sky High St. Jude and Reach N Teach Ministries of Pearland.
