Hop and Sting Brewing Company

"Awesome brewery with a delicious BBQ food truck right outside. We tried the Miracle blood orange wheat and the Weisser time Hefeweizen. And for BBQ we were blown away by the brisket Mac and cheese bowl and the Birria tacos - so so good! They also had some live music - perfect combo for a Friday night. Only request is to get some board games for people to play (we didn’t see any there)."

"Great beer, great food truck, and live music all in one place!!! Win-win!! Vaqueros barbecue was there for our last visit. They do meat right!!! The burrito is stuffed full of goodness—meat, cheese, beans, yum. The tacos are tasty! We went with flights for the beers because there are so many tasty ones to try. They will let you sample if you’re not sure. The live music was an added bonus! Dogs are very welcome. You may want to get an extra taco for Rover."

"We rode our bicycles here from The Gaylord Texan Resort. It’s a short ride even with beach cruiser bikes, but it was hot. This brewery was a nice refuge of shade, cool air, friendly people, and of course, refreshing beer. They have a nice courtyard and indoor seating. The beer selection was top notch. I don’t normally go for wheat beer, but the heat demanded hydration. I tried the blood orange first and then the regular wheat. Both were amazingly tasty and easy to drink. After hydrating we checked out the food truck. Everyone around us were enjoying delicious looking food and the smell of smoked meat filled the air. I tried the beef brisket and my wife had a smoked Turkey sandwich. Both were phenomenal, as was the apple Gorgonzola slaw! I not only love this place, it is also worth a trip to try their beer. The little downtown of Grapevine is full of cool boutique style stores and wineries as well. Make an afternoon of it!"

"It's been a couple of years since I've been to Hop and Sting. Their beer options seemed to have expanded quite a bit since then. There were quite a few creative options to choose from. It was also packed when I came. Both floors, plus the outside, which is a good sign. I overall recommend checking it out, if you're not in the mood for wine in Grapevine."

"Our family loves finding family friendly breweries, restaurants, etc. We were excited to find Hop and Sting and enjoyed our time here. We arrived around 5:45 on a Saturday and were able easily find a seat outside. The outdoor area is nice even when it’s a bit hot out because it’s pretty shaded with trees and lots of umbrellas. Unfortunately there isn’t a lot of seating inside so we’re glad it’s shaded but we were unsure if the office area that is in a separate building is also used for seating… the door was open to this building and there were tables but that was a little unclear to us. We absolutely loved the beer selection. The first Saturday we went there were (2) different live musicians. The second musician a reggae performer was awesome! He was interactive with the crowd and at one point had all the kids performing with him. While the food trucks all have great service.. very friendly folks! There’s not enough variety especially for families … both trucks (diff times of the day) on the first Saturday and 1 on the second were all BBQ and not kid friendly. These would be our one request is more variety and options for kids!"
