About Us
We began our operation in 1994, within months of the passage of legislation
allowing brewpub operation in the state of Texas. We found a public
eagerly awaiting the enjoyment of our cold,
freshly brewed beers along with our freshly prepared, flavorful foods.
Today we are the oldest brewpub in Texas, and have been
proclaimed by numerous publications, as the "Best in Texas".
Our reputation is confirmed by our award winning brews in both U.S. and
International Competitions. Most importantly, is the reinforcement that we
are doing things right, shown by the repetitive visits of our loyal guest
from both near and far.

Fredericksburg Brewing Company just
claimed a gold medal at the 2005 Great American Beer Festival Competition, the
largest national beer competition that recognizes the most outstanding beers
produced in the United States today. The
top three winners in the competition’s 69 beer-style categories were announced
October 1 at the 24th Annual Great American Beer Festival Awards
Ceremony held at the Colorado Convention Center in Denver, Colorado.
Fredericksburg Brewing Company was
recognized in the Munchner-Style Helles beer-style category for its Hauptstrassa
Hellest (Mainstreet Light). Rick
Green, Master Brewer and Alton Huebner, assistant brewer describe their winning
beer as “Our lightest lager which
is pale-golden, delicate, and mild. A
light, Bavarian Style Lager of the type made famous in the bier halls of
Munich”.
The 2005 Great American Beer Festival
Competition winners were selected by an International panel of brewing experts
from an impressive field of 2,335 entries.
More than 1,200 breweries were invited to compete.
“The Great American Beer Festival is the premier judging event for the
American Craft beer industry”, says Nancy Johnson, Festival Director.
Being chosen a winner is truly an accomplishment”.
Fredericksburg Brewing Company has been
in operation for eleven years at its 245 East Main location and has twice been
proclaimed as the Best Brewpub in Texas, by Texas Monthly.
Previous silver and bronze medals have been received for its Porter and
Red Ale.
We are located at 245 East Main Street which is in the heart of
the historic, downtown shopping district in the beautiful, quaint town of
Fredericksburg, Texas. To house our operations, we restored a great two
story 1890's building to historical standards. The first floor of this
building provides space for our dining area, which includes our bright copper
and stainless brewing equipment. In addition, our large air-conditioned
biergarten, and a lager room with retail occupy the balance of first floor
space.
The second floor provides space for our unique "Bed &
Brew" facilities. There are twelve rooms with baths, each decorated
with themes ranging from older to more contemporary themes.
The Fredericksburg Brewing company is open every at 11:30 AM
with closing hours as follows:

In our fair little town, sidewalk consumption is allowed, so
that you can take our cold brews on your sidewalk stroll.
