I'm going to be going over to Houston area (Woodlands) Mon-Thur this week. I'm passing through Houston proper on the way in, and leaving from Cleveland, TX on Thur.

1. What beers do I need to get that are not available in LA? On my list currently is Union Jack, Wookey Jack, and Blakkr (if thats available in TX?)

2. What place in Houston is best to get these that is not terribly out of the way travelling from BR to Woodlands?

3. As I mentioned, I'll be travelling back from Cleveland so not going through Houston, but prob Beaumont. Can I get these beers in Beaumont? Can I get them in the Woodlands? If not I'll prob be getting them on Mon and putting them in my hotel for a couple days, which is weird but one must do what one must do.

I've made that Cleveland-to-Beaumont run on TX 105 many times.

My sympathy.

FYI you'll pass right by the "last chance" Spec's in Beaumont on US69. Nothing beats the sensory experience of Specs # 1 on Smith Street (downtown HOU), but if you get busy and just want to see a Spec's, Beaumont will do in a pinch.

I don't venture up north very often, but I would think you could get those three at HEB. Maybe a Woodlands resident can chime in on that.

Either way, if you're not in a hurry to get to the Woodlands, I would go 5-10 minutes out of your way while heading through Houston to hit up Specs on Smith. I don't know if they still have Blakkr though.
