Big Hops Growler Station has signed a lease to open a pub in the downtown area.

A lease was signed for roughly 2,100 square feet of space at 1010 S. Flores St., a mixed-use property with residential units at Flores and Guenther streets, said Big Hops owner Rob Martindale.

Plans are to open the pub in about 90 days, he said. It will be the fourth location for the business to open in less than two years.

The pub will showcase about 36 craft beer taps. There won’t be a kitchen but Martindale wants to have food trucks on-site to provide eats.

Big Hops currently has three locations: 8313 Broadway, 11224 Huebner Road, and the gastropub at 22250 Bulverde Road.

Martindale said his plan is to eventually open Big Hops locations across the state.
