USA, TX: Baileson Brewing Company hopes to launch in Houston over Labor Day weekend
After an extensive planning phase, Houston will be getting a new brewery in Rice Village, next to what used to be one of the city's oldest watering holes.
First reported by Chron.com in December, Baileson Brewing Company this week announced that it hopes to serve its first beer over Labor Day weekend.
The brewery is currently under construction at 2322 Bissonnet, inside a former auto service center. Old gas stations being converted into bars and clubs is a very common theme in the Houston area, after all.
Right next door to Baileson is the dearly departed Kay's Lounge. Before Kay's closed late last fall, it was one of Houston's oldest bars.
Brewery co-owner Adam Cryer and his wife Sarah Pope come from the engineering world and decided to take this step after brewing at home for friends and serving it up at smaller events. The response was very positive.
Cryer has described Baileson as a "true nano-brewery with three barrels." Sticking to just a few varieties has proved advantageous for some local breweries.
"We are nearing the end of construction on our space and will have various permit inspections from the City of Houston over the next week or two in hopes of obtaining our Certificate of Occupancy," Cryer said Tuesday. "Hopefully that will go well and there will be no delays."
The project is technically an interior remodel. The process ended up taking a bit longer than expected due to permitting but nonetheless Cryer is excited to finally get the doors open.
