Eternally grateful whenever there’s an opportunity to be a small part of the all-time legendary hoppy body of work Shelton Brewing has amassed and continues to grow with every release 🙌🔥💪🍻

Smash & Grab is luxuriously hopped with Freestyle Nelson, Freestyle Nectaron, and Citra LupoCORE, and is representative of two of the things Chris Shelton and I love most: smashburgers and hoppies. Huge thanks not only to Chris but of course Phil Kim at HOTLINE BURGER for asking if we wanted to do a burger collab in the first place 🙏🤝 This truly is the ultimate burger and beer pairing 🔥🔥

Make sure to follow the Shelton Brewing IG for details on how to grab the beer, and be sure to head out to Hotline Burger’s Bellaire location on Saturday, 6/27 to experience the limited edition ANGRY LARRY Extra Spicy Triple Smashburger collab.

It’s back! Come on out to tomorrow at Noon to buy cans and enjoy draft pours of a fresh AF batch of literally the highest-rated beer in 2025 for the entire state of Texas (not just hazies, but every category) per the community. Now that’s somethin’ to YAP about 🗣️🗣️🗣️

Excited to share my updated Top Burgers in Houston rankings, which were previously published last summer! Importantly, I have made the decision to bifurcate the list into two distinctive categories: (1) Classic, or traditional-sized patties; and (2) Smashburgers. For me, the latter increasingly feels like such a distinctive offering from a “regular” burger that I find it challenging to compare my favorites from both categories within one grouping.  Having tried burgers at more than 100 places you can trust these rankings for Houston burger and smashburger spots 🙂

The link to the list is in my bio!

There are beers. And then there are BEERS. I’m sure I’ll say this again about multiple Hopzys drops in 2026—heck, I thought Yappin’ was the pinnacle of hoppy achievement—but I’m calling it now.

’s OOPS! ALL HOPS is my Beer of the Year for 2026, and as of this moment this extravagantly hop-drenched, layered—many of you keep describing the experience of drinking this beer as akin to it delivering WAVES of hops, which is spot-on—absolute beast of a beer is the most well-executed, lusciously-textured, multi-dimensionally flavored, luxuriantly-hopped hazy I’ve ever had the pleasure of imbibing. And all of those stunning characteristics are expertly wrapped up in a majestically sophisticated 9.5% package.

This exquisite liquid is an ode to Chris’ eternal curiosity, tireless pursuit of elite craftsmanship, and a true celebration of exceptionality.
