The legend of Bonnie and Clyde has been told many times since they actually committed their crimes all across Texas in the early 1930s.

The common name, "bois d'arc", pronounced "Bo-Dark), is an East Texas native tree and is French for "bow-wood," a reference to the use by Native Americans for bows and war clubs. This species was also widely distributed and planted to make hedgerows and livestock pens prior to the invention of barbed wire.

We have crafted this version to be reminiscent of a style that was originally developed by medieval monks who served beer on special occasions. Our version of the Belgian Tripel emits notes of a floral bouquet, fresh bread, with hints at spices and malt. It is lightly hopped with notes of grains, fruit and spice, followed by a clean, dry finish. A nice balance of sugar, acidity, bitterness, spices and alcohol rounds out the finish.

Our tribute beer to Texans of Scottish descent, this Wee Heavy is a bold burst of fruit and flowers on the nose, followed by a rich, malty sweetness that is full of caramel and toffee. The full body has a chewy, silky feel with little to no bitterness or hop flavor on the finish.

The colors of the tartan owe their selection to the bluebonnet flower, a member of the lupin family, which is widespread in many parts of Texas. The flower changes color with the passing of time, the 'brim' becoming flecked with red. Read Less

East Texas is an amazing place with a rich heritage and eclectic history. One such place is the town of 'Possum Walk. The story goes that Rev. Robert E. Day, one of the many pastors who had served the Union Hill church, was conducting a service when a possum came walking in through the open front doors, walked down the aisle and out the back door of the church without breaking stride.

Another story is that a country doctor, while traveling on horseback through the community, encountered a possum stopped in front of him in the road. “Walk, Possum,” he reportedly said.

Either way, our Possum Walk hazy IPA bursts with juicy hops up front, lingering tropical fruits and pineapple, mildly sweet, hazy orange coloring with a hint of creamy coconut butter on the finish. Come experience your own Possum Walk and enjoy what East Texas has to offer. Read Less
