This last month has been a whirlwind of fun and hard work. We launched our first beer (Quakertown Stout) on March 1, 2013 at Oak Street Drafthouse here in Denton and now, just a little over a month later (with the help from our pals at Deep Ellum Brewing Company), we’re shipping our beer all over DFW, Houston, [...]
Support Local Music, Support Local Beer

We can’t wait for [...]
“A good time at the Best Texas Beer Fest”
Critic’s choice: Personally, the best samples I found throughout the day were not beers at all but non-alcoholic sodas from Armadillo Ale Works. The Denton start-up is making a line of branded craft sodas to raise money for their future commercial brewing efforts, currently available in stores around Denton and the North Dallas area.

“Homebrewers Bringing Crafty Ale to Denton”
Grabbing a cold one to the creative minds who make up Armadillo Ale Works in a Denton garage means popping the top off a bottle of dreams. “I had brewed as a hobby. Never thought I’d do it professionally. Right before I graduated I kind of had a, I don’t know, I was worried that [...]
