We had our wedding welcome party at Pinthouse Brewing on South Lamar and it was the perfect location for it! We rented the upstairs space that had its own bar, seating, and a view that overlooked both the downstairs section and part of the brewery. Throughout the event, we had our own bartenders upstairs that could serve drinks as well as a buffet made by Pinthouse for the event–each and every one of our guests raved about the food and beer! Leading up to the event, Stephanie was immensely helpful in answering our questions and getting us through the paperwork. She very kindly responded to our often extensive emails and talked with us on the phone whenever we needed additional clarification. The night of the event went off without a hitch thanks to the team there and we are very grateful to them for helping us put on such a fun night. We would highly recommend this Pinthouse for events!
