Peticolas Brewing Co.

Peticolas helped elevate Dallas' craft beer scene from JV to varsity when it introduced us all to Velvet Hammer over a decade ago; a smooth imperial red ale with a 9% ABV. A soft touch with a big punch and so very yummy. The small locally owned brewery in an industrial building in West Dallas is known for its English, Irish and Scottish style brews, all made on-site. The split-level taproom is a great place to catch soccer games; Peticolas shows everything from Champions League to regional Mexican matches, and it’s a semi-official home for FC Dallas fans who don’t want to drive to Frisco. If there aren’t any games on, start your own by playing foosball, ping pong or shuffleboard upstairs.
