Houston Brewery Series No. 1

Happy first day of February... of 2019!? Can you believe it?! Because I sure can't.

Last year, I shared 3 different coffee shops I explored the previous month, and after a full year I hit almost all of the coffee shops within the main loop. As much as I would love to continue the series, I knew I would have a hard time driving out to coffee shops outside the loop on a regular basis. SO, after going to a few different breweries in January, I have decided to take on Houston breweries. There are so many scattered throughout the city and new ones popping up all the time, so what better excuse to drink more beer than to commit to going to 3 new breweries each month for an entire year?!

And here we go!
