I love this place. So relaxed. The beers are original...love the Lucas with watermelon and the Chesapeak bay with strawberries. The staff is friendly, child and dog friendly. Relaxed. Lots of places to sit. Something for everyone. (Wine of you don't like beer but gee who doesn't like good craft beer?) Root beer for the kids. Amazing!!! read more

We love trying out new breweries, and I'd been wanting to try Cactus Land since their recent opening. Make sure to check out their open hours on their Facebook page before you make the long trek to Adkins, because I'm pretty sure they're only open the first and third weekend of the month. The venue is nice and open with plenty of seating outside. There wasn't a lot of room inside though. Staff were super friendly and helpful, and we had a great experience. The beer wasn't my favorite, but only because they were heavy on the sours. We opted for two flights of five, that way we could try all 10 of the beers on tap. Out of the 10, 5 or more were pretty sour, and unfortunately out of all the different varieties of beer, sour is my least fave. And the flights were a bit pricier than I expected: we paid around $26 for our two flights, but at least we got to try them all. The other beers were pretty good though! The IPA was delicious, and I'd definitely take a pint of that. Although I was a bit disappointed in the flights, I would like to come out here again and check out some of their new brews. read more

A bummer that they're only open two weekends a month - it was worth the wanderlust to find this hidden gem out in the middle of nowhere southeast of San Antonio. The beer was fantastic - i tried both Camelia (a great session IPA) and Prodigal Sun (a VERY good representation of an East Coast "hazy" IPA. It's difficult to find a brewery that does a good "juicy" New England-style IPA, so it was great to stumble onto this one. There were ten total beers on tap, and if they're all as good as the two IPAs, then this place knows their business. They also do growler fills! They only had 16 oz growlers for sale this weekend, but they said they would fill any growler you bring in, which is a huge bonus for those of us that have one too many growlers from other breweries that will ONLY fill their own glassware. Plus they had a food truck as well (great blackened fish tacos!), as well as a playground for kids, a dog area if you want to bring your pets, and even a deck with what I believe is a stage setup for live music. Smaller seating area inside, maybe 8-10 seats total, and although there are two seats at their serving bar itself, I'm not sure I'd want to sit there as people would be constantly ordering around you / over you. Instead, head outside, where there's ample seating, with great shady tables under trees, and some nice deck tables and chairs with fans / porta-a-cools and umbrellas behind the building. It wasn't crowded at all (outside at least) at 4 on a Saturday afternoon. I would absolutely go back, and anchor for longer and try some of their stout offerings. Great beer, and a nice venue! read more

Family friendly spot. Great food trucks, delicious craft beers. The kids played while the grownups ate, had a few beers and enjoyed a gorgeous Texas evening under the stars. Friendly staff. read more

I absolutely love this place. The staff was friendly and accommodating, they were genuinely excited to share their beers with my wife and I. The selection of beers is very diverse, and exemplifies the small less than 3 barrel brewery model. They are trying different things and having fun. I will definitely be back and recommending all my friends for the short drive out to Adkins to get a taste of all their great work. Special note: they offer in house made sodas as well which are very good too. read more

Cactus Land Brewing - Very original, tasty beer! - Breweries Near Me - Adkins, Texas

What a fun place! Great beer (the pancake beer is excellent if you like a porter), play area for the kids, yummy taco truck, and excellent service! The live music was good too! I highly recommend and will be back! read more

All I can say is.... COME! The atmosphere.. staff.. and the BEER. Is all amazing! Dustin and Erica have built one of the sweetest little gems ever down in this area. The perfect twice a month getaway to listen to live music.. have good truck food.. and have AMAZING beer. My boyfriend and I have been here almost every time they are open since we found them last spring. They are open the first and third weekends of the month and it's a hard thing to pass up! read more

Super fun place with outdoor games to play while drinking some very interesting craft beers. The peanut butter stout is a def winner. The lager is pretty tasty too. read more

They produce some incredible beers. Specializing in unique, farmhouse beers but there is something for everyone. Cant wait till this place opens officially and all get to try! read more

Visited this place for the first time and I must say I'm quite impressed. I tried three different beers (2 IPAs and a stout) and I throughly enjoyed all 3. I'm a big fan of weathered souls brewing and it's awesome to see collaboration between local breweries, we need more of that in this city. For a smaller brewery they are doing an excellent job and I hope they keep it up and continue to expand operations. Currently they're only open the 1st and 3rd Friday and Saturday of the month, and I'd like to see that extend to more days. They also have a few wines for the non beer drinkers in the group, a white, red, and a sweet wine which is nice. Live music and food trucks make this a must try brewery, so if you're in the area I highly recommend trying it out. read more

Such a great local brewery! The owners are great and so welcoming. Fun, family (and dog) friendly atmosphere. They recently added a stage and covered deck! Love this place!! read more

This brewry is one of our favorites, the live bands and food trucks make the atmosphere great and the beers are always solid. It's puppy friendly too! read more

Welp, people sure do love to complain don't they? Grand opening day, long lines, what do you expect from a new brewer that people are excited about. "Poorly executed" haha have you ever opened a brewery?? No? Thought so, overal yes lines were long, lots of people, beer was excellent, brewer and wife are extremely nice. Haha I don't know what else you one on the one day they opened, it was planned months in advance so basically everyone know and went out. People need to get over themselves online. You have a real issue? Grow a pair and handle it with the owners like a real man or women. Cheers Cactus Land!! Here's to years of enjoying your brews. read more

Cactus Land Brewing was amazing. I tried several fantastic beers including two IPA's, a Peanut Butter Stout, and an American Amber. The atmosphere is great (family friendly), and just an all around great place to spend an afternoon. Looking forward to their food items in the near future. read more

Out of the way, outstanding. Friendly for kids, groups, pets. Owners are great. We usually go on Saturday before live music starts so not sure how crowded it gets. Food trucks come both days usually read more

My husband and I went here on a Friday afternoon and we were the only ones there for about an hour. Very cool, laid back, welcoming environment and staff. Good beer section too. Started to get packed around 5pm. Hard to believe since this place is off the beaten path, but we will be back! read more

I went to the one year anniversary. I was a little disappointed with the ticket price of $30. You get five 4 ounce samples of beer. Most breweries I get a pint for six dollars not 4 ounces. The Belgian style beers were not good. Other than that I had a great time. read more

Super cute place. I really like it here. I don't even like beer but came with my husband. Super nice place to hang out with you family. There is room for kids to run. I came on a night they had a band and that made the atmosphere even better. I would definitely come back again. Pleasantly surprised. read more

We routinely like to visit local breweries and especially love grand openings. Unfortunately their grand opening was a logistical failure. It took 18 minutes for a person standing in line just outside the front door to actually get up to the counter to order. And the line was way out the door. They should have been able to account for the volume of people using the eventbrite RSVPs, so I don't think they were surprised. They need better logistics and coordination, then hopefully I'll be able to come back and actually try their beer. read more

Fantastic place to hang out and try some great locally brewed beer. With 11 different beers on draft there's something for everyone. Owners were extremely friendly and the place was squeaky clean. A lot of shade outside with nice tables and dog friendly. What a gem of a place. read more

Relaxing atmosphere and a nice variety of food trucks. An ever rotating selection of freshly brewed creations, with a few standard favorites. I am a porter and stout fan, and do enjoy their selection of stouts. Their 'Lucas' beer is great! Slightly citrusy with some body. Not a fan of the sours thought. Looking forward to their next menu up. read more

Awesome place to spend an afternoon. A bit of a drive from downtown San Antonio but worth it if you're a beer lover and it's a nice day to drink a few beers outside. Not the kind of place that only has lagers and ales on tap- we loved trying all the unique beers, including sours. Very family friendly- we brought a toddler and two dogs and had a great time hanging out in the large outdoor area and eating from the food truck that was there. read more

I just found my new favorite craft beer location in the San Antonio area. I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of beer that they had available on tap for such a small brewery. They offer various serving sizes for their beers ranging from 4oz, 6oz, 8oz, 12oz, and 16oz depending on the beer you request. I really enjoyed this because I was able to throw almost all of their beers into two flights to allow me to sample 4oz of each. The beer was fantastic. I was surprised that their flavors and the quality was so high with such a large roster of beers on tap. There has to be some serious time management skills for this part time brewery to crank out that much beer at that quality in such a small place. The place also has a wonderful vibe. The area is beautiful with plenty of picnic tables in the shade of a tree to enjoy your beer. Plenty of parking was also available. I'll tell you what really makes this place worth visiting other than it's just a great brewery is the owners. It's family owned and ran by a husband and wife. After talking with them and seeing what kind of people they were, it just put the cherry on top for this place. I was sure to pic up several of their brewery shirts on the way out so that I could represent this hidden gem. I highly recommend that you plan a stop here. You won't be sorry. read more

Awesome place and kid friendly. Live band on Saturday, but only open the first and third weekend of the month. Wish they were open more.

What a hidden gem! Their beer flights introduced me to GENE SAID YOU CAN'T DO THIS, an IPA. They gave other ambers, IPA's, lagers, & stouts as well. The atmosphere was awesome, too. The band played very good music. They have a food truck but I couldn't sample the food due to seafood allergies. We will definitely return!!! read more

Awesome time ever. Hidden away and only a quick jaunt from my house. Great atmosphere and two of the nicest, friendliest folks I have ever met. Inside as well as outside is a sight to behold, quiet surrounded by great scenery. The beer offered the week of my visit was all quite tasty. read more

In all fairness this was for their grand opening, but overall it was not well executed. It's a good hike from San Antonio and parking is limited. The line was crazy, and after driving 45 minutes to get there we left because the wait was just about as long. I have heard that the beer is good, but I'm not venturing back out there to try it. I'll wait to try it somewhere else. read more
