Beloved Texas craft brewery invites Houston to raise a glass with celebrations including Anniversary Bash on May 9

HOUSTON, April 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Karbach Brewing Co., Texas' second-largest craft brewery, is tapping into its past and toasting its future in May with a 15th-anniversary celebration featuring 15 consecutive days of events, anchored by a community-driven time capsule that gives fans the chance to win a free surprise from Karbach.

Throughout the month of May, guests can contribute to Karbach's time capsule, a repurposed beer barrel, by dropping in notes, photos or small mementos that highlight a favorite Karbach memory or offer a snapshot from a night at the brewery. Patrons who bring a Karbach keepsake to any Anniversary event will be rewarded with a surprise for their submission to the time capsule. The time capsule will be reopened in 2041, on the brewery's 30th anniversary.

Festivities at the brewery build each day with a mix of fan-favorite traditions and elevated experiences, starting May 1. The celebration peaks on Saturday, May 9, when Karbach hosts its 15th Anniversary Bash, a free, all-day event open to the public. Karbach invites the community to celebrate this milestone in classic Texas fashion with live music from Texan artists, a crawfish boil, a local vendor market, specialty new beer releases and giveaways.

Karbach will host 15 daily events throughout May, including:

• May 1: Astros Watch Party with the Shooting Stars and a special Astros guest
• May 2: Karbach Brewing hosts its beloved Wiener Dog Derby
• May 3: Karbach's sixth-annual Hot Sauce Festival
• May 7: Ticketed Brewmaster's Table Dinner, featuring Chef Aaron Bludorn, with a portion of proceeds benefiting Feeding Texas
• May 8: Retro Tap Takeover brings a variety of favorite Karbach brews from years past back to the Karbach campus

The anniversary fun culminates on May 15, when Karbach will throw out the first pitch at the Houston Astros game, commemorating the brewery's role as a cornerstone of the Houston community.

"Fifteen years ago, we started with a simple idea: to brew great beer and build something meaningful in Houston," said Chris Meyer, general manager of Karbach Brewing. "This celebration is about giving back to those in Houston and throughout the state who have supported and loved us from the beginning through our growth and evolution."

Today, Karbach Brewing Co. has grown from a local passion project into one of Texas' most recognized names in craft beer. Popular Karbach Brewing varieties include ZiegenBock, Hopadillo IPA and new Karbach Lager.

All anniversary events will take place at Karbach Brewing Co., 2032 Karbach St. in Houston. For the full event schedule, giveaway opportunities, time capsule details and to plan your visit, visit karbachbrewing.com.
