Bourbon-n-Branch Brewing has announced its intention to close in Hudson Oaks.

Founded by Brian Lixey and Joshua Tarbay, Bourbon-n-Branch had just celebrated its one-year anniversary after originally opening in July 2022.Tarbay, incidentally, joined the project after helping co-found Parker County Brewing Co. of Willow Park in 2017.

Regarding the name, Bourbon-n-Branch was a cocktail enjoyed by J.R. Ewing, a character played by Larry Hagman on the long-running television series Dallas. The drink and other infusions were a featured attraction at the brewpub, along with the occasional house beer brewed on a one-barrel system.

Community involvement was central to the concept as well, evidenced by a "Neighborhood Series" of beers calling attention to local landmarks, personalities, and neighboring businesses. Bourbon-n-Branch also offered a "Brewers Experience," which allowed participants the opportunity to design, produce and brand personalized beers. 

As for its final day, Bourbon-n-Branch will cease operations at the end of business on Saturday, July 22.
