NEW BEER LIST AT THE BACKYARD GRILL
Our new beer menu has been completed. Rahr Texas Red makes it way back to the list. This red lager was on the original list in 2009 and we are glad to see it back in Houston. Also making the list on a permanent basis are Karbach Sympathy for the Lager AND Karbach Hopadillo IPA. We used to rotate these but enough is enought…we couldn’t decide which one is better so they both made the list. Unfortunately, coming off the list are Rogue Dead Guy Ale and Real Ale Pale Ale. We still have a few and will discount them til they are gone. The No Label tap has been switched to a Rotating Tap. Currently we have Ridgeback Ale but I have a feeling Black Wit will be here soon. If you are reading this then you like BYG Beer..and the best part is I have added a new tap called “Mark’s Tap” ..next time you are in ask the server what I have on tap. This will not be on the beer menu…you gotta know to ask. Today – Karbach Hop Barran Stout!

No Label Ridgeback Ale
Dark American Amber with strong flavors of caramel and roasted malts. Balanced with just the right amount of cascade and golding hops for a sweet but slightly bitter ale. Named after our dog Hailey.

Karbach Weisse Versa Wheat
Weisse Versa is unfiltered and has the refreshing characteristics you’d come to expect in a wheat beer, but the combination of the citrus peel and coriander added during the brewing process and the natural clove, nutmeg and banana aromas produced by our special, Bavarian wheat beer yeast result in a beer that’s unlike any you’ve ever had.
Now on Tap at the BYG
Karbach Sympathy for the Lager
At Karbach Brewing Co. we believe the lager has been unfairly treated in the world of craft beer. Decades of giant corporations producing watered down versions of “Light Lager” has made the beer connessieur wary of the style. Sympathy for the Lager is an ode to bottom-fermented beers which can have just as much character as their top-fermented counterparts.
Now in the Bottle at the BYG
