About us

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. Find our tap list here: What’s on Tap?

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.

Contact us to host a private party in the Sour House or join us at one of our tasting events to learn more.

Beard Science Brews

HIBISCUS SELTZER SOUR

Is it beer or is it not? That is the answer we will leave up to you. But it is made with pure water, 100% fermentable sugar and 100% organic Hibiscus leaves. The red color comes strictly from the Hibiscus, and you can smell and taste the flower and fruitiness of this cold beverage. A sparkling wine dryness and grape-like finish only makes this more interesting.

CUCUMBER & LEMON SOUR

Our Cucumber and Lemon is made from cucumber puree and real lemon juice. Cucumber is up front in aroma and flavor, while the lemon adds a nicely balanced freshness in the finish a little acid to the base sour beer. The combination of both lemon and cucumber creates a little vanilla phenolic note that makes this beer one of our most sought-after offerings.

PICKLE SOUR

A blend of sour Beer and pickle juice gives this beer a nice balance between sourness and all the spiciness you would expect from your favorite pickle.

BLOOD ORANGE SOUR

A nice balance between the sourness of the beer and the tart fruitiness of the Blood Orange makes this a good thirst quencher. A nice, dry mouthfeel will make you understand what fruit-alicious means.

MANGO SOUR

Not sure about sour beers? Then this one's for you! The sweetness of the mango balances out the sourness adding a tasty, tropical and fruity flair. Imagine sitting in our yard, feeling like you're on a tropical island listen to Country music.

WOODRUFF BERLINER WEISS SOUR

Woodruff is a German herb that grows deep in the woods and has green leaves with white flowers. It is known for its earthy, almost hay-like flavor and aroma with a light sweetness to it, to cut through any kind of sourness. The Ph is 3.5 and makes this a wonderful beverage on a nice day in the Yard.

BASIL STRAWBERRY SELTZER SOUR

Brewed with 100% organic Tulsi leaves and Wild Strawberry puree. Expect the Basil aroma in the front with a light strawberry coming through in the end.

MexTex Mexican Lager by Second Rodeo Brewing

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 Cech 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.

Roll Dog Amber by Second Rodeo Brewing

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.

Cadillac Job Hefeweizen by Second Rodeo Brewing

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.
