Following an April announcement<\/a> detailing plans to move operations from their original location in Dallas, Oak Highlands Brewery<\/a> (OHB) is debuting the company’s new digs in Richardson during a grand opening event this weekend.<\/p>\n

Situated at 500 Lockwood Dr. in the Lockwood neighborhood<\/a> of city’s Core District<\/a>, Oak Highlands will occupy an 11,000 square foot structure going forward. Formerly home to Happy Hippie Brewing Co., the turnkey space is a purposeful step down from the 16,000 square feet Oak Highlands utilized in Dallas, with the new site offering a number of advantages.<\/p>\n

For one, the interior lays out with a larger taproom (separate from the production area) compared to Dallas, with an alcove set aside for live music set-ups and\u00a0a separate room that can be cordoned off for events. Plus, there’s the potential for more foot traffic, given the change of scenery from an industrial park to the outskirts of a residential community where an array of retail and entertainment destinations now sit in proximity to the brewery.<\/p>\n

Neighbors include\u00a0Communion Coffee Shop<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Lockwood Distilling Co.<\/a>, both of which do business just steps away from Oak Highlands’ front door. And judging by the opening day tappings of a Nitro Coffee Porter with Communion Coffee and Locktoberfest, a barrel-aged version of the brewery’s Oktoberfest finished in Lockwood whiskey barrels, there’s the promise of many collaborations to come in the future.<\/p>\n

Speaking of beer production, the company will be downsizing with respect to brewhouse operations as well. Ryan Pickering, head brewer and Certified Cicerone at Oak Highlands, is moving from the 30-barrel system in Dallas to a newer 10-barrel setup in Richardson. It’s actually a bit of a blessing, according to Pickering, since smaller batches means he’ll be able to brew more often and with a lot more flexibility.<\/p>\n

Right now, the Richardson tapwall is capable of pouring 10 beers, but there are plans to expand that to the 20-handle wall currently being used in Dallas. Pickering says they’ll also bring other equipment over, while making further adjustments to the pre-existing production, canning and cooling capabilities to bring things more in line with the brewery’s everyday needs.<\/p>\n

Beyond the beer, on the topic of other amenities at Oak Highlands’ new spot, there are wide-screen TVs, pinball machines, and a to-go fridge, not to mention fresh merchandise in the form of a new lineup of t-shirts and hats. Oh, and let’s not forget about the permanent food truck installation.<\/p>\n

After making a name for itself out west, Brix Barbecue<\/a> will be parked out front serving barbecue to Oak Highlands patrons on the regular. Brix, which has a brick-and-mortar locale in the Near Southside neighborhood of Fort Worth, was among those receiving an Honorable Mention nod in Texas Monthly’s just-published list<\/a> of the best barbecue joints in all of Texas.<\/p>\n

As for operating hours, set service times in Richardson are pending, but take note that Dallas will remain open (and hosting events) during the transition, with the final day at the original OHB set for July 31.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
