Houston, TX - January 29, 2020 — Houston’s renowned brewing scene welcomes a new addition as Urban South Brewery, the leading craft brewery founded in New Orleans, announces the grand opening of its first satellite brewery in Houston’s Sawyer Yards District. Urban South - HTX will open its doors to the public on February 29, 2020. Located at 1201 Oliver Street, the operation is headed by Houston locals General Manager Dave Ohmer, R&D Brewer Justin Slanina and Taproom Manager Marin Slanina. The team brings a combined 43 years of experience in the brewing and food and beverage industries.
The new 14,000 square-foot facility includes a 10-barrel research and development brewing operation, canning line, a dedicated barrel and blending room, and a public taproom with a large patio and beer garden.

We’re thrilled to be part of the Houston community and can’t wait to share our passion for great beer with our new friends and neighbors.”
