The story of Rahr & Sons Brewing Co. really starts when Fritz Rahr graduated from Texas Christian University. Fortunately for beer lovers in North Texas, Fritz not only fell in love with Fort Worth, but also fell in love with his future wife here. And in another fortuitous twist for all of us, Fritz’s wife, Erin, gave him the thumbs up when he announced that he would like to carry on the Rahr family tradition of brewing.
Rahr & Sons Brewery is very generous in providing fundraising opportunities for many local animal rescue organizations, and yes, even some non-animal charities (those Girl Scout cookies go great with an Ugly Pug!).
We all thank Fritz and Erin for their generosity ...and so do our fur-friends.
When you join, you are asked what beers you like and don't like so the brewers know what styles to brew next. You also can request what bars and stores should carry their beer and you can receive alerts when these beers are distributed near you!
When I first tried Iron Thistle cask aged, I was just about blown away! IT may be the best beer I've ever had, and its locally brewed right here in Funkytown, Cowtown, or Fort Worth. Thanks Fritz!
Super excited about the brewery reopening. Can't wait!
The first time I tried a Winter Warmer it was love at first sip. Fritz I know you have heard enough from me but I have to say it one more time BREW MORE WINTER WARMER.
I spent some time at the brewery last week visiting with Fritz and Erin and Jamie. What a great brewery and so passionate about what they do. I enjoyed the Ugly Pug, a smooth black lager, one of the smoothest I have ever tried. Thanks everyone!
We discovered the brewery through one of my wife's graduate professors. We fell in love with the place right away. The beers were amazing and the atmosphere was funfilled. After the roof collapsed this last winter, we attended several of the "Tastings on the Road" events. These are always a blast! Fritz and crew are easily approachable and they sometimes surprise us with a "special" brew or two, i.e. "Pecker Wrecker"! We highly anticipate the brewery reopening for the Wednesday and Saturday Tour and Tastings. We'll see ya'll there, Chuck and Sara
I enjoyed a Wednesday berwery tour in Fort Worth. The beer was great, the people who attended were jovial and interesting. However for whatever reason, on that particular Wednesday evening they did not give a tour. But, now I have a reason to visit again! Thanks for making great quality brews Fritz!!
