I’m calling it. Channeling my inner Janet Yellen, I’m predicting that 2018 will be another great year for craft beer. The McApplebees of this country are good predictors of trends to come. When Chili’s Grill & Bar put Rahr brews on tap several years ago, it was a game changer, to say the least. Now bombers and sixers of craft beer are encroaching on other mainstays of American life.

Enter: Bru City, a harbinger of what the future of craft beer is looking like. With a cohabiting barbecue restaurant, several fridges stocked with beer, aisles of bombers, and a tapwall serving 60 draught beers, you can live like a drunken viking at this Euless gas station. On a recent visit, a small but lively crowd encircled the bar space. The bartender that night was quick and courteous. The “gas-tropub” is worth checking out.
