2 guys, 2 girls and a pizza place

We tried a new pizza place in Wimberley and I have to include it on here because it was oh, so good. It's called Brewster's Pizza; here is a link to their website http://www.brewsterspizza.com/homemedia.html
First, about the family that runs it, then about the pizza.
The family.
The owners of this restaurant are Holly and Bruce Collie. I have to put a link to the Statesman article about them, but I want to hit the highpoints of it in this post. http://www.statesman.com/news/content/news/stories/local/2009/09/27/0927collie.html

Bruce played for the San Francisco 49ers and won Super Bowls XXIII and XXIV. He lived the high life and had all manner of worldly success, but he needed and wanted more. He felt he "didn't have a life -- [he] had things." He made a change turning his life over to God. He met his wife, Holly, who was a model for QVC. They bought land out in Wimberley, and through a series of jobs, eventually began this pizza place. Oh yeah, and they have 13 kids -- so far!

As soon as we entered the restaurant, it was warm and welcoming in a way better than most places. They brew their own beer and it was wonderful stuff. The pizza -- oh, the pizza -- was so good. We ordered a cheese pizza for the kids - they devoured it. Jesse and I ate the "Carnivore" specialty pizza. The crust was thin and crispy, the ingredients were fresh and delicious, the pizza is what we've been looking for out here for a long time.

If you live in the area, you've got to try Brewster's. If you don't live in the area, you've got to try Brewster's. We'll put you up for the night!!
