Bringing his <strong>Co</strong>lorado beer knowledge and inspiration to <strong>Austin</strong>, Josh Hare has opened<br />

one of <strong>Austin</strong>’s latest craft breweries. They started out with two year-round beers that are<br />

canned for easy use during your outdoor drinking endeavors. One of these, the ALT-eration,<br />

took home gold at the 2012 World <strong>Beer</strong> Cup. Additionally, Josh has plans to brew up to 10<br />

more experimental beers in his first year on the 3 barrel pilot system they’ve dubbed The<br />

Greenhouse. Styles include a porter, barleywine, Belgian pale ale, schwarzbier, and Indian<br />

brown lager. Expect these to show up (and move quickly) on draft and (eventually) in 22 ounce<br />

bottles. They even collaborated on a beer with us called Night RYE-der. If that isn’t enough,<br />

Hops and Grain is an environmentally sustainable operation that uses up- cycled malted barley<br />

from brewing to make natural and wheat free dog treats called Brew Biscuits.
