Brewery Opening in TX Hill Country 

Opening June 28 with a soft launch on June 27, Black Chapel Brewing Co. is the newest addition to Texas’s booming beer scene. Located just an hour outside Austin in Johnson City, it’s nestled within the new Charleston Taylor Estate along the famed 290 Wine Trail—an area rapidly growing in reputation for craft beer, not just wine.

Black Chapel is an independent, family-founded brewery with a modern approach to approachable, food-friendly beers and a commitment to freshness. Housed in a 4,800 sq. ft. brewhouse with expansive patios and Hill Country views, it serves up craft beer straight from the tanks, making it a must-visit stop for weekenders, day-trippers, and beer lovers alike.

Why This is Worth Your Radar:

  • Tank-to-Tap Freshness: Poured directly from the tanks into pints and flights—no holding or overhandling

  • Modern Craft Brewing: Clean, balanced styles meant for pairing and sessionable drinking

  • Location, Location: Black Chapel brings beer credibility to the heart of Hill Country wine country

  • Family-Founded: Built by husband-and-wife duo Whitney and Jared, who named the estate after their children

  • Tour & Tasting Access: Open for tours and tastings with early access available during the soft launch
