After 16 years of raising goats, making cheese, and sharing our farm on occasional tours, we finally made farm access a more permanent opportunity. We built a beer garden/petting farm. We're calling it a beer garden, but more technically it's an old fashioned Texas ice house. A rustic, outdoor place to gather with family and friends, share a drink, play some games and - in our case - snuggle with some goats.
We have a variety of beers, wine, and hard seltzers, as well as non-alcoholic beverages. We also have a small snack menu that includes products from our farm and others.
In the future we hope to add classes, dinner events and more, but for now, just come out, have a drink and pet some goats and enjoy some fresh air.

Address
We are at 29633 Bunting Road - right next door to the farmhouse.
There are signs for the parking area, and if it is full, you can park along Bunting Road.
Hours/Fees
Open Fridays 2pm to 8pm, Saturdays and Sundays from 11am to 8 pm
Hanging out in the beer garden is free; entrance to the animal petting area is free with any purchase
If you plan to visit the goats, PLEASE wear sturdy, closed-toe shoes, and note that the goats go to sleep when it gets dark, so plan your visit accordingly.
Because The Beer Garden is 100% outdoors, we sometimes close in lousy weather. If you have any doubts, please email us before you head out. We do have an industrial fan to make hot days bearable and fire pits for when it gets chilly, but heavy rain is a bar closer.
Can I bring my dog?
Sorry, no dogs. As much as we love them, it is a safety issue for our animals.
Do you have anything besides beer?
Yes, in addition to our rotating selection of all-Texas beers, we also serve other alcoholic drinks like wine and seltzer, plus non alcoholic drinks, as well.
Is there food?
We are serving a variety of snacks, including cheese and crackers, popcorn, gelato pops and more. There is a BBQ place across the street if you want to eat something more substantial. You can order by phone and pick up to bring back when it is ready. Just ask us about it if you get hangry. You are also welcome to bring in a picnic or other food, but please purchase your drinks from us.
