Hops and Growlers

Hops and Growlers is a brewery in Gautier, MS, located at 2339 Government St. The brewpub serves the craft beer community across the Mississippi Gulf Coast, with a taproom built around in-house brews led by brewmaster Scott Hixson. Their selection spans robust stouts, tangy sours, and crisp lagers and pilsners, giving customers a wide cross-section of styles to explore from a single tap list.

Beyond the beer itself, Hops and Growlers operates as a gathering place as much as a working brewery. The taproom is set up to welcome families along with pets, making it accessible to a broader crowd than a typical bar setting. Seasonal specialties rotate through the menu using innovative ingredients and techniques, and beer education events give visitors a chance to learn about brewing processes, beer history, and how to pick out the finer tasting notes in a glass. The brewpub sits in the heart of downtown Ocean Springs, Mississippi, where it has built a following among both regulars and travelers exploring the coast.

The business holds a rating of 4.90 based on customer reviews. That level of feedback points to a brewpub that has earned a strong reputation with the people who actually walk through its doors. Hops and Growlers has become a recognizable stop for craft beer enthusiasts on the Mississippi Gulf Coast.
