Hochatown Brewery Guide: Mountain Fork Brewery, Distilleries & Bars in Hochatown, OK

The local Hochatown brewery guide: Mountain Fork Brewery, Beavers Bend Brewery, Hochatown Distilling, Girls Gone Wine — hours, what to order, from cabin owners.

The Hochatown brewery scene punches far above its weight for a town of a few hundred people. One legit craft brewery, one working distillery, a wine bar that pours the best local flights, and a cocktail courtyard that stays open late — all within a mile of each other on Highway 259A. Here's exactly where to go, what to order, and when to show up.\n\n## Mountain Fork Brewery — the flagship Hochatown brewery\n\nMountain Fork Brewery is the Hochatown brewery locals point tourists to first. Six rotating house beers on tap, wood-fired pizzas out of a proper Italian oven, a huge dog-friendly patio with a stone firepit, and live music most weekend nights. Order the Hochatown IPA (the flagship) or the Broken Bow Blonde if hops aren't your thing. The wood-fired pepperoni is the food to pair with it.\n\nHours run roughly 11 AM to 9 PM most days, later on Fridays and Saturdays in season. Show up before 5 PM on a Saturday or plan on a 30-minute wait for the patio.\n\n## Hochatown Distilling Co — bourbon, vodka, and moonshine\n\nA quarter mile from Mountain Fork, Hochatown Distilling Co runs a tasting room with a $10 flight covering their bourbon, vodka, and three flavored moonshines. Sit on the front porch, don't plan on driving after. The peach moonshine is the crowd favorite; the straight bourbon is what serious drinkers come back for.\n\nBring a cooler — bottles are only slightly cheaper than the liquor store but they're the only place selling the small-batch releases.\n\n## Girls Gone Wine — the Hochatown wine bar\n\nGirls Gone Wine isn't a winery, despite the name. It's a wine bar pouring flights and full glasses of Oklahoma and Texas wines you can't easily find elsewhere. Best 4 PM stop before heading back to the cabin to grill dinner. Small plates and a cheese board if you need to soak it up. Reservations aren't required but help on weekends.\n\n## Beavers Bend Brewery — Hochatown's second brewery\n\nBeavers Bend Brewery is the biergarten and taproom a short walk from Mountain Fork. A rotating lineup of house beers, a shaded patio, and a taproom that stays lively into the evening. Best move when Mountain Fork's patio is at capacity — grab a flight, share a pretzel, and hop back over.\n\n## The Hochatown brewery day — a suggested order\n\nIf you want to hit the whole Hochatown brewery scene in one afternoon and evening: 3 PM at Hochatown Distilling Co for the flight, 4:30 PM at Girls Gone Wine for a glass, 6 PM at Mountain Fork Brewery for pizza and a pint, 9 PM at Beavers Bend Brewery or Bigfoot Speakeasy for the nightcap. Uber and Lyft don't operate reliably out here — the safest plan is to walk between all four (they cluster within a half mile) or stay in a cabin close to Highway 259A with a designated driver.\n\n## Where the Hochatown brewery scene falls short\n\nOne honest note: Hochatown has one true craft brewery, not five. If you're used to a big-city brewery crawl, temper expectations — this is a small mountain town. The upside: no lines, real regulars, and beers made 200 feet from where you drink them.\n\nFor the full trip plan around the Hochatown brewery scene — cabin, dinner reservations, brewery order — pair this guide with our Hochatown restaurant guide and our Hochatown happy hour guide below.
