Grapevine, TX
Hop & Sting Brewing Company gives Grapevine a brewery hangout built around small-batch beer, a taproom, a beer garden, food trucks, and a calendar that makes room for live performers. The brewery puts an emphasis on craft ales and lagers made with education, experience, discipline, and attention to detail, while the public side of the operation stays easygoing: see what is on tap, grab something from the day's food truck, and settle in indoors or out.
