Ivanhoe Ale Works

Ivanhoe Ale Works is Denison’s historic and innovative “brewinery”—the first of its kind in Texas. Housed in the beautifully restored Star & State Theater, this craft brewery merges bold beer-making with sophisticated winemaking in a single inviting space. Under the creative direction of Brewmaster Bryan Thomas, Ivanhoe focuses on small-batch, community-driven brews made with locally sourced, all-natural ingredients. Alongside its rotating lineup of fresh, experimental beers, the venue also serves up delicious food and shares its tasting room with Homestead Winery, offering a unique pairing experience for beer and wine enthusiasts alike. With its inviting atmosphere and community-centered approach, Ivanhoe Ale Works has become a beloved gathering spot in downtown Denison—not just for beer lovers, but for anyone seeking craft beverages, local flavor, and friendly ambiance.
