Capt Keith's Beer Blog

Jake “the snake”, our beer guru in Houston is making an effort to educate his audience on the nuances of cellared beer.

Stoned for 6 days is a collaborative effort that he conceived with his bros at Petrol Station across town. Read more about this by clicking here.

I am working on a new project in Dallas, called The Moth. The concept is a “gastro-pub” that serves a great chef driven menu of small plates for sharing and pairing with the diverse and carefully planned beer menu. You can expect great food, perfect beer offerings and educated, professional service. The Moth will have 40 draught beers along with two Cask Ales. 40 draughts seems like a lot, but its not easy deciding which craft beers best represent their particular style. I have decided to start locally and then branch to other cities around the US and then go abroad to bring you the very best selection to be found in this city. The bottle menu can fill in the gaps with a size of 80 or so special selections. I am collecting a number of beers that will be off-menu jewels. Once our staff knows you dig good beer, you’ll have access to all of them. I am working on some vintage liquid to add to the stash. Just ask for the list.

The Moth is located in the Design District of Dallas where Hi-Line and Oaklawn meet. The easy access off the Dallas Tollway to Oaklawn now makes it very accessible from many areas of town. We expect to be open in mid April 2010. Come by and check out the progress or stay posted to this blog. I will attach some shots along the way.

Cheers,

Keith
