In our first Burger Guide we wanted to pair a local beer with each burger. As you can imagine, we were thrilled when Karbach Brewing Co. accepted the challenge. Loving their solid mainstay favorites like Love Street and Hoppadillo, their seasonal beers that we all wait for in anticipation and their specialty brews that are born from experimentation, we couldn't wait to see what Karbach came up with. Karbach's Marketing & Promotions Coordinator David Graham set to the task. Since each burger is unique he looked at the different toppings and buns to find the beer that would match it best. We believe the results to be delicious!

Bourbon Barrel Hellfighter, better known as BBH, has been a favorite of ours since its first release. So we've taken it out of the F.U.N. Series and made it a series of its own! BBH will be released several times a year, sometimes with other ingredients (cherries anyone?) in the mix. The brew's rich malt character, along with chocolate and vanilla notes, make it the perfect beer to warm your toes!

Big & Bright IPA

Let us tell y'all about this beer you're fixin' to enjoy! Big and Bright IPA is what happens when you add a big, heaping helping of Jester, Citra, and Simcoe hops to the bright and shiny squeeze of grapefruit that’s ripe for the pickin'! Take one sip and you’ll feel those tastebuds a tingling! We know you're going to love the fruits of our labor!

PAIRS WITH LIBERTY KITCHEN's EDDIE BURGER

He lurks in the shadows, waiting in bold anticipation. He's surprisingly bitter. Bitter about something. Legend has it that he feasts on those with fresh hops coursing through their veins. This dry-hopped, Texas IPA has a flavor as defiant as the Hopadillo himself. It's packed with the bracing bitterness of hops from around the world that this creature craves. He's comin' to get ya. You've been warned...

PAIRS WITH BLACK'S MARKET TABLE's GRILLED BMT BURGER

It's a job! And a hazardous one at that. Benefits, you ask? I hardly think so. But the show must go on. So, it's with bravado that the Rodeo Clown takes his place in the arena lights. Whether or not he's insane is not important right now. It's with grit and intensity that the Clown steps in the path of almost certain destruction.

PAIRS WITH FIELDING'S WOOD GRILL's SMOKE BURGER

Close your eyes and let your toes dip into the water. Take a sip and melt away into pure relaxation. If you couldn't hear your neighbor's dog barking his ass off you'd swear you were in Cancun. But jet-setting was not in the cards this year.

Make the most of your Staycation with this fantastic Texas Session Beer brewed with bright, citrusy aromatic hops and a touch of wheat for a smooth finish. Crack it open and you'll swear there's sunshine in this freaking can!

PAIRS WITH URBAN EATS' COWBOY SLIDERS
