Texas Craft Brewers

Abilene, Texas · Est. 2016

Mesquite & Malt

Mesquite & Malt smokes its own malt over West Texas mesquite, a regional twist on the German rauchbier. The smoked porter is a slow-sipper that pairs with everything off a smoker.

03Frequently asked

Tasting this brewery.

How do I taste Mesquite & Malt at the festival?
Bring your commemorative glass to the Mesquite & Malt booth and the brewers pour. Every 4 oz pour is included with a General, VIP, or Beer School tasting; Designated Driver tickets do not include alcohol service.
Will the rare pours run out?
Kegs are finite, and the most popular beers can run out before last call. If a brewery has a beer you have your heart set on, work it into your day early.
Can I buy these beers to take home?
The festival is a tasting event, not a bottle shop. To take beer home, visit the brewery's own taproom; most are happy to point you there at the booth.
