"A relative newcomer to Deep Ellum, Braindead Brewing Co. is firing on all cylinders. This brewery currently has four unique ales brewed in-house. Additionally, their menu, featuring elevated "pub" style fare - includes a knock-out burger and pork chop, fantastic brussels sprouts - even duck fat popped popcorn. You had us at duck fat! Beyond just stopping in to sample the beers and enjoy good food, BBC has cool events, including beer dinners which allow visitors to taste a range of beers paired with a tasting menu. Follow them on social media for all the details, or just swing by - they are open all week - come back for the Sunday brunch - and the T.A.B.L.E. Sandwich (bacon, arugula, egg, avocado, aioli) if you've had a few beers there the night before." - Reel FX

"Yesterday, Braindead Brewing announced plans to reopen its doors as a restaurant this weekend, but it’s possible that the popular Deep Ellum beer bar won’t make it for long. According to Wynne, the bar has defaulted on its rent payments, and is 'out of money, and no more is coming.'" - Amy McCarthy
