San Antonio’s Alamo Beer Company is set to reopen its taproom in July following a five-month hiatus for renovations. The iconic brewery, located at 202 Lamar St., has been closed since February, but the upcoming reopening marks a fresh start after the company was acquired by the private equity firm SKJ Capital in December 2025.
The acquisition came after Alamo Beer Co. filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy earlier that year, leading to new plans for modernization of its facilities and a revamp of its legacy taproom designed by Lake Flato. The investment aims to provide strategic oversight to stabilize and grow the brand, which has faced challenges similar to other breweries in the San Antonio area.
As part of this transition, Jason Pond has been appointed as the new CEO, bringing extensive experience from across the brewing industry. The renovations are expected to enhance the brewery’s community presence while also improving its manufacturing capabilities. Despite these changes, the brand will continue to offer its classic beers and seasonal releases, including popular collaborations like the viral King of the Hill.
While the grand reopening date hasn’t been officially announced, fans can stay updated by signing up for notifications on Alamo Beer’s website.
