Unlawful Assembly Brewing Company

So the brewery tasting room wasn’t open yet. Not a problem. They have about six beers from the brewery in the downstairs bars that are open, but they have twelve upstairs. A helpful manager and a super bartender, Manny, took us up to the third floor to fill our flights. Given the trouble that we put them through we had to try all twelve. The manager said that technically the entire building was the brewery. The tasting room is separate. They are also going to be doing a major renovation soon, so look out! We took our three flights outside for the view and met some terrific strangers that joined us. The stand out beers were the Black Sheep, the Idol Time Passion, and the Idol Time Agave Lime. They were all flavorful and delicious. The concept of a food and bar court with a giant screen projection television onto a stage for concerts and games is awesome! The tasting room is the crown jewel. It just makes too much sense. I hope that they continue to make great beer and never lose their personal touch!

My wife and I were visiting our son and daughter-in-law in the Frisco, TX area. We decided to visit the Unlawful Brewery tap room after lunch. We checked the website and the hours posted for today were 11am - 11pm. We arrived at 1:50pm and was told it was closed until 2pm for a drag queen show brunch. So we went back down to the lower level food court to get some food. We came back at approximately 2:15 pm and the rope blocking the entrance to the brewery was removed. We walked up to the brewery and the bartender told us the brewery was closed till 4pm due to the show. He told us we can get beverages at the lower level. What a waste of our time. I checked their website to see if there was any mention of the show and the revised hours and there weren’t any. Needless to say, I will never return to this establishment or purchase any of their products. Not because of their product, which I have never experienced, but because of their poor management and poor customer service. Good luck to anyone trying to get in. Don’t trust their website!
