Cedar Creek Brewery celebrates 3rd anniversary in new, expanded location




Cedar Creek Brewery celebrated its third anniversary with a party in its new location that includes a beer garden and a restaurant called Plowboys this month.

Brewery owner Jim Elliott launched the operation in 2012 just down the road from the new facility in Seven Points.

The brewery added food service at the new location because of the growing popularity of the beer garden. The beer garden and restaurant are open Thursday through Sunday, as is the restaurant.

The brewery's beers are now sold at several locations on Cedar Creek Lake, including Brookshire's, and they are also marketed in several other Texas cities, including Dallas.

The new location is the former site of a large skating rink, which later became a Country and Western venue. The 1983  movie "Tender Mercies" was shot in part in the building.

Elliott has said the success of the brewery is the realization of a long held dream of his.

Fishing Report from TPWD (May 1)

EXCELLENT. Slightly stained; 75 degrees; 0.43 feet above pool. The hybrid striped bass and white bass have made a full recovery from the spawn and are now back in the main lake in droves and are on a feeding frenzy! Look for heavy bird activity throughout the lake on flats and near the Dam on edges of drop offs especially on cloudy and overcast days. The hybrids and white bass have started schooling in water from 4-14 feet at the dam and any wind blown shallow point or seawall. Late evening schooling action is also happening in shallow coves and points throughout the lake. Reports of great catches using silver or white slabs and spinners and retrieving off the bottom at a very slow retrieve to catch these fish in depths of 8-16 feet of water. The crappie have also migrated back into the main lake. Look for them under bridge pylons or under docks where the depths are between 3-10 feet. Guides have been reporting exceptionally nice catches on sunny warmer days. Report by Brent Herbeck, Herbeck’s Lonestar Fishing Guide Service. Catfish are excellent the first couple hours of the day on retaining walls where the shad are spawning using fresh cut or whole shad on a bobber or with a light weight. The bite slows as the day progresses because the catfish are feeding heavily at first light. Later in the day target catfish on the first drop-offs in 5-15 feet of water. Report by Jason Barber, Kings Creek Adventures.
