History
The Real Ale Brewing Company was established in 1996 in Blanco, Texas. Their beers can only be found in Texas. Originally operating out of a tiny basement brewery on the square in Blanco, the brewery relocated in May 2006 to a brand-new facility in Blanco, where they have increased production massively. The owner credits the local Blanco River as "some of the best brewing water for the styles of beer that we make," making Blanco an ideal location for the brewery.
Local partnerships have included Austin-based Fireman's Texas Cruzer, a BMX cruiser bike manufacturer, for which Fireman's #4 Blonde Ale is named.
In October 2016 Real Ale Brewing Company announced it was issuing a "precautionary recall" of 11,000 cases due to a potential glass defect.
