BEARD SCIENCE SOUR HOUSE

Beard Science is a Sour House, meaning we specialize in fermentation techniques and souring processes that you won’t find in your typical brewery. For kettle sours, we use Lactobacillus bacteria strains to create unique flavors in a very controlled environment. For our wild sours, we ferment the natural yeasts here in The Colony, Texas for some uncontrolled goodness in the beer. We also add special spices and some unexpected ingredients in the finishing process to give you something new with each brew. Some beers then age in wooden American Oak foeders or bottles you see in the brewery. 

Beer not your thing? Not to worry, Beard Science has an extensive whiskey collection featuring those hard-to-find allocated Bourbons and hand-picked select barrels. We can also serve you a cocktail from our full bar or wine if that’s what tickles your fancy.

Sours - By Beard Science Sour House

Draft Beer - By Second Rodeo Brewing

  • ROLL DOG AMBER

    This American Amber Ale is brewed with Two Row, Munich, Caramel and some Chocolate malt. Only American hops are used and this 5% ABV beer features aromas and flavors of caramel and malt sweetness, followed by some fruit and citrus as well a pine-like bitterness.

  • MEXTEX MEXICAN LAGER

    As Mexican Lagers have a deep European history, it is no surprise that German hops and European lager yeast is used in most of them. Our Mexican Lager is made with Pale Malt and Rolled Corn as well we used hops from the Hersbrucker region in Germany and a Czech lager yeast. Expect a light beer with an ABV in the low 4% and slight flavors of flowers and dry grass as well a nice sweetness at the end from the rolled corn finished with some hop bitterness. Ask for a dash of salt and a slice of lime if you feel like it.

  • CADILLAC JOB HEFE

    A traditional German Hefeweizen brewed to the perfection of the Bavarian standards with over 50% Wheat malt and some Pale malt. Fermented with a Bavarian wheat yeast strain, expect the typical flavors and aromas of banana some orange and a spice glove finish. Only slightly hopped with German Hersbrucker hops. The creamy mouthfeel is just a plus for the refreshing first sip.

Meet our Brew Boss

The Beard Science Sour House is the delicious laboratory of our mad scientist and Brew Boss, Dennis Wehrmann. Dennis was born in Germany, into a family with five generations in the brewing business. He worked in breweries as a kid and went on to brewing school, apprenticeships, brewpub management, and eventually Dennis got a Master’s degree specializing in the brewing business. After moving to Dallas with his wife Joline, he opened his own microbrewery (Franconia), the first in the Dallas area. He operated Franconia for 12 years before passing on the reins and eventually joining the Truck Yard team. You can also taste his work at our upcoming Second Rodeo Brewery in The Stockyards in Fort Worth (scheduled to open March 2021).

Learn from all of Dennis’ experience in one of our tasting events – check out the Events page for more info.
