Description

Specialties

Growler fills, mix and match bottles and cans, specialty glassware, and every growler accessory you can imagine. We believe the superior flavor of draught beer can be enjoyed at home. Our sustainable Growler Exchange Program leaves the washing to us; a $ 6 bottle deposit allows you to trade your used growler for a clean bottle or return extras for cash or store credit. Additionally, we carry a rotating selection of over 200 bottled and canned beers.

Beginning with our thoughtful selection process and the monitoring of packaging dates, to the chemical free sterilization of our returnable bottles, we aim to satisfy beer enthusiasts’ need for easy access to a variety of unique beers at a more affordable price than you’ll find at the pub. Once you taste the quality of our draught you’ll never be satisfied by a pint from most bars.

History

Established in 2012.

The concept for Premium Draught was born after one too many late nights navigating a crowded bar just to have a great beer unceremoniously poured into a dirty pint glass. We believe fresh draught beer shouldn’t be confined to the pub. You should choose when, where, how, and with whom you enjoy a fresh crafted beer!

Not the most convenient for me, and I’m starting to wonder how many of these places the inner loop can support, but these guys do a great job if you’re in the Heights and need to fill some growlers. Not always my fav selection of beer genres, but they’ve got something for everyone.

I came across this store by accident. I went there and I was advised the best wine for fish. I wanted to cook it for my husband that evening. There is a very good choice. Excellent wine shop.
Be sure I will come here again.

Great beer selection at a reasonable price. A super knowledgeable staff. $ 12 growler fills of a different beer each day. And an overall nice neighborhood beer store feel.

I had accidentally stumbled into this joint going to Antidote coffee next door. I have always wondered if there was a shop in Houston that sold beer and beer accessories. This place is a retail store that sells a healthy selection of craft beers from across the country. I saw some beers from New Braunfels all the way to Atlanta. The owner made sure to let me know that this place was a retail store and not a place to serve beer.
There was chalkboard on the wall listing the beers they had on tap to sell. All you have to do is grab a growler and fill it up.
Wish this place was bigger and had more selection. But overall love the feel of it. Prices aren’t the cheapest, but you gotta pay a premium for good draught (heh see what i did?)
Wish it had better parking, had to park in front of a million dollar home down the street.

Very laid back environment with an amazing selection of beer and accessories. From beer on tap and organized in the fridges, to the numerous growlers lined up everywhere else there is a bunch to choose from and definitely will be making many trips back to try it all. There are friendly and helpful workers to provide assistance with your decision that day. Overall Premium Draught is an amazing place in a perfect location, with certainty that there will be countless trips back.

A solid selection of craft beers with an awesome growler exchange program for those that dont want to own one to boot. If you cant finish a growler by yourself… and shame on you… they have smaller bottles for you to use as well. Want to sample before purchasing? Consider it done! While I have acquired a few growlers of my own they will fill it without question. They even take the time to sanitize it unlike every other place Ive been to. Premium Draught is serious about draft beer and they properly fill the growlers for those beer nerds out there. This is all at a fair price too for fresh beer!

What a neat place! They have a few brews on tap for you to sample! You can get a growler of whatever you like!
The guy helping us was super knowledgeable and we brought home a Java Stout that was ridiculously good!
They have so many awesome craft beers!

Wives and Girlfriends… if you ever needed a convincing reason to get your man to move to the Heights. this is it …“PREMIUM DRAUGHT.” It is probably every mans dream to have a place like this streets away. Luckily for my husband it is.
What a gem to have in the Heights. If you love craft beer or just love beer period, this is your spot. The Super friendly, über knowledgable, beer loving staff is super happy to help you find the perfect beer for you.
How does it work: Pay a deposit for the Growler and choose the beer you want. Come back and do it all over again. They also have refrigerators lining the wall with a billion different beers from German to local they got it.
How do I know this place is awesome: Sit outside Antidote (next door) for an hour on Saturday afternoon and watch how many people come in/​out. It is impressive.
Why should you visit Premium Draught?:
1. You should feel lucky it is in your neighborhood and support local shops.
2. It’s cool to say you get beer in a Growler on your way home from work.
3. The staff are super cool nice guys.
Now go and visit… you will be glad you did.

First of all, what a great idea for a business. Nerd out over craft beer but don’t deal with people drinking in your establishment. Brilliant!
The selection is aMAzing, the prices reasonable, and I appreciate how many of Houston’s growing number of fine breweries are represented.
Johnny and his staff are friendly and knowledgeable. It’s always fun to visit with them while getting a fill.
Our Church buys our kegs here, and the men enjoy bringing their latest find to our fellowship activities to share.
Can’t recommend this place highly enough.

I was invited to a beer tasting party at a co-​workers house where most of the people in attendance were bringing their own home-​brewed beer. I kind of made it my mission to impress that crowd. This was the perfect opportunity to visit Premium Draught and knock another item off my Bookmarks list.
Other reviews covered the basics of this place. I will re-​iterate that the owner is super friendly and he knows his stuff. They had some really good selections on tap. I bought a New Belgium Lips of Faith brew on his recommendation and it went over very well with all the people at the party. Mission accomplished.

They had a good selection of bottled beer, but I was more interested in the draft beer to take home.
They have a dozen beers on tap, and you can sample them. These beers are listed on their website, so you can do your research before you go. For $ 6, you can take one of their growlers, and just swap it out every time you come back for a clean one. You can also just return it and get your $ 6 back. The prices to fill up a 64oz growler range between about $ 12 and $ 19 depending on the beer.
The place had a friendly, chill vibe, and they were willing to answer all my questions. I did their $ 6 deal and bought the $ 13 Dallas Blonde Ale rounding out my bill to $ 20.

Premium Draught is a welcome addition to the beer bottle shop scene in Houston. It definitely holds its own against D&Q and Spec’s.
I came here after grabbing a coffee at Antidote. It was empty and I figured it was as good a time as any to check it out. Since it was empty I had the opportunity to speak to who I believe was the owner. We had a nice conversation about beer. He clearly knows his stuff and cares a great deal about it.
As for the beer selection, the taps are mostly Texas breweries. When I went, Roggen had the most taps. As for the bottles, it is a well curated stock. Lots of great beers for the beer geeks out there. The beers are grouped in style, something I wish more places did. I really appreciated the fact that everything was sold as singles.
Premium Draught has good prices, great selection, and excellent service. If you’re a beer geek, check it out.

AWEZOME. This place is bad. azz if yuhs like beer. Killer beer selection (x12 on Tap and, like, 150 in the ‘fridge — maybe more). Super mellow vibe and the guys that work there do not discourage questions — and I asked lots of stupid ones…
If you buy your beer in bottles — they probably have it.
If you buy your beer in growlers — they probably have something awezome to fill said growler with.
They’ve got a great growler washing/​return program — I’ll let them explain if you’re interested…

Often you go to a «beer» store and the employees may look down their nose at you and your «not so beer nerd» questions, but this is not that place.
The owner was in the store (and has been every time) when I stopped in. Super friendly and knowledgeable about all the beers they have on tap.
Such a great idea, and such great folks working there!
Tip: If you drink a lot of beers and want to improve your palate. Buy the 33 beers hand book. Small pocket sized book so you can log your beers and rank it. Very very cool!

Several premium draught beers to choose from as well as 8 fully stocked refrigerators full of premium beers. Their growler exchange program let’s you buy the draughts in bulk. An excellent local business in the Heights with great service.

The key difference here vs. other great places to buy beer is the enthusiasm of the owner. His passion, exuberance, and laid-​back friendliness really set this place apart. Sure you can find a few more obscure things at Specs, but you won’t have nearly the experience. And given that this place is within walking distance, I have no excuse for not visiting frequently.
A few key items: the beer is organized by style rather than brand. So, for instance Chambly Beer (Unibroue these days), which makes everything from a Belgian white ale to Abbey style strong dark ale, is speckled about the coolers rather than huddled together in one corner. So, if you are familiar with one beer that you like, you can try an unknown neighboring beer and at least have a good idea what it might be like.
And the ten taps change regularly, so always something new to discover. If you pay with Square he has a frequent buyer club. If you become part of the growler return club, you get a clean fresh bottle each time you go, just trade in your rinsed one when you go back. Jump in with both feet!

«You must love this country more than I love a cold beer on a hot Christmas morning.»
–Homer (the Springfield Nuclear Plant worker, not the Greek Poet)
Premium Draught is a beer store par excellence. They have local craft beers and a few national ones on tap (they had Anchor when I was there). You pick a bottle (a «growler») – large or jug, put a $ 6 deposit down, and watch as beer-​goodness is poured from the tap into the vessel. And when you’re done, you return with your growler (s) and swap them out for more.
They have numerous craft beers by the bottle, as well. So if you had your heart set on something and they just don’t have quite what you want on tap, there’s always that option.
What’s not to love? Parking… well, it’s the Antidote parking lot but street parking is abundant.

Growlers to go! Though there are other places in Houston to get your growler filled this place has an exchange program. $ 6 gets you a growler that you swap when you come in for a refill. So you end up with a fresh and clean growler for your liquid gold. You may also bring in your own growler to be filled which is what I do for now. The cleaning is up to you.
The selection varies so I recommend checking the website or calling ahead to check what is on tap. The prices are reasonable as the beers offered are typically microbrews or limited offerings. A 64oz growler is 4 US pints and some of the beers offered could easily be $ 5+ per pint so you’re saving a little bit plus you get to enjoy the brew in the comfort of your home.
I’ve been here twice and certainly plan to return regularly.

I love this place, and have been waiting for it to open. A great brand new beer store that just opened up. They do growlers to go, which is awesome. Beer geeks come and get your 512 Pecan Porter and anything Live Oak they happen to carry. 10 taps with a focus on Houston and Texas breweries. Karback, Saint Arnold, 512, Live Oak, the brand new Cedar Creek was just kicked when I visited. Also Hennipin and Anchor OSA on.
They also carry about 200 bottles in the coolers. Again, there is a focus on Texas breweries. Some Jester King in bottles being the most notable that is not available on tap as far as Texas breweries. Also a good mix of English, German, and a few Belgians. Plenty of good stuff to choose from.
The deal with the growlers: Basically put a $ 6 deposit for the actual glass, then fill the growler with the prices listed on the chalk board. There is also a discount when buying 6 or more bottles from the cooler. Bring their growler back, and they give you a brand new clean one.
The owner is one of the nicest guys around. He was the old manager at the Little Woodrows in Rice Village. He knows his stuff, and the quality and attention to detail is incredible. Go now.
