SpindleTap Brewery in Houston

This negative review has mostly to do with whoever manages there social media.  This place is constantly closing at random times for private events. That's fine just accurately update your Instagram and Twitter and let us know. Case in point they put a post that they'll be closed on Friday for a private event.  Ok cool it's Saturday no way they'd have a private event the next day and not also post about it right?  Oops egg on my face for thinking no one would be that dumb.  Yes I should of called but why they clearly would've posted about it on there IG.  Either post whenever you have a private event or don't post at all.   Posting like half the time defeats the purpose. Also beer is pretty mediocre when there not holding a private event.  There's better options  inside the loop.  Last time going there.

Didn't think I would be doing a 3 star review for Spindletap but here it is. I've been to the brewery a few times and enjoyed myself. They have a nice outdoor area and a well done taproom. Spindletap also specializes in the beers I prefer lately. The hazy NEIPA style that they make is excellent and I've enjoyed a few of their stouts and lagers as well. Then why the 3 stars u ask? A friend of mine recently went to Houston to stock up on beers from the various breweries we like, Spindletap being at the top of the list. He brought me back a case of four packs of some beers I've had at the brewery and a couple of others I haven't. This was the last week of August. A couple of weeks later I crack open a can of 'One Love' DIPA and as I'm pouring it, it doesn't look right. I've had this at the brewery more than once. Came out of the can  more of a dirty yellow than the brighter color u get coming out of the tap. Tasted it and it was clearly old beer. Checked the date on the can and it was from freakin' February! Sold in August! This is disgusting coming from the brewery. I've asked a couple of the breweries around here that make a similar style of beer and they both said they would NEVER sell cans of the hazy DIPA's that were that old. I can see maybe getting it that old at HEB or Kroger, but NEVER at the brewery. Thus the 3 stars. Pissed that...

Really enjoyed our family get together at Spindletap Brewery - nothing like good beer on tap with good company. Outside space provides covered, shaded, and open air picnic tables that are comfortably spaced, as well as a very nice indoor seating area with tv (March Madness was on). A food truck provided spicy sausage, warm/salty pretzels, and bags of fresh boiled crawfish. Good times!
