A visit to the new Bosque River Taphouse in Stephenville
A flight of beers paired with the Hothead Buffalo Ranch Chicken Sando at Bosque River Taphouse (Photos © Brian Brown/Beer in Big D). This weekend, time was spent catching up on new facilities setting up somewhat outside the orbit of the immediate Dallas-Fort Worth area. One of these, Bosque River Taphouse of Stephenville, originally opened in a temporary space in late 2023. The company has since upgraded to an expansive new spot at 320 S. Harbin Dr., just south of the campus of Tarleton State University . Sean and Amanda Mosher form the duo behind the family-owned business, which completed the move to its new locale in May. The couple now operates the brewery and taproom in a 15,000 square foot building fronted by roughly 7,000 square feet of outdoor space and a sizable dedicated parking lot. On the inside, available area is divvied up between larger and smaller dining sections, the kitchen and the brewhouse, with the main dining room surrounded by more than a do

video🍷 Wine Wednesday - Mouton Rothschild 2020 🍇
Every Wednesday we open a bottle together and explore what’s happening across our world of wine, technology, and community. Sometimes it’s a product launch, sometimes a special guest, and sometimes just a chance to slow down and talk great wine.

The 2020 vintage stands among the most celebrated of recent Bordeaux releases, earning two perfect 100-point scores and three 99-point ratings. Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate described it as “a striking wine… layered, refined, and beautifully balanced.” Built to age for decades yet already remarkably expressive, this is a First Growth that rewards patience but can also be enjoyed sooner than many expect. During the livestream we discussed: • Why Mouton continues to define Pauillac • What makes the 2020 vintage exceptional • Why provenance matters at the Firs
