    What makes it fun

    In March of 2020, there were two scientists and a dog in San Antonio, Texas, who built a nanobrewery, Black Laboratory Brewing. During their time spent working together as scientists at a food-testing laboratory, Tim Castaneda and Jeff Weihe became good friends. As co-owners of Black Laboratory Brewing, they are now putting their scientific training to use in the process of creating craft beers that appeal to the taste buds of San Antonio. This brewery serves lagers, witbiers, sours, and IPAs in 32-ounce growlers in addition to serving them on tap. Come experience San Antonio craft brews that are sure to impress.

    NOPE USED to be a fan… but nevertheless its charm has worn off. Beer selection is solid, but just be aware that the judgement scale is pretty high. I’ve had two separate incidents months apart. PLUS there is a short, bitter Hispanic bartender/ “manager” with a giant chip on her shoulder. Oh well. There are plenty more places to go to in this city to avoid that level of arrogance. The other peeps on staff were great. Damn SHAME 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️💋💋

    This place has the best outdoor seating. Beer is excellent and attached to 2-1 Dough Pizza.. So beer and pizza with outdoor seating. Best of both worlds.

    Stopped by for a quick beer and highly recommend. Staff was very friendly. I asked for recommendations based on other beers I like and both beers recommended were great.

    It was very clean and tidy with a nice atmosphere. Will definitely be back 👍👍

    Love love loved the atmosphere here. It was a rainy day and it was awesome to be able to sit outside and enjoy it without getting rained on. Kid and pet friendly. The pizza is ammmmazing and so are the beers. I feel like every beer I had was smooth and refreshing. The service was excellent and the staff was great and attentive.
