This award is more than a default recognition that this Wedgewood-Houston brewery was basically the only one to open in the past year. Fait la Force co-founders Parker Loudermilk and Zach Sowada have created a cozy third space that looks like it was decorated by a deranged grandma. They serve fantastic European-inspired beers that they create in a tiny brewing system tucked in the back room, and you can also order beers by the half-yard. Those glass vessels are fragile and expensive, so you’ll have to give them one of your shoes which they will hang from the ceiling in a wire basket until you return the glass.
