My god... there were literally 100+ new Bud Light labels just approved by the TABC with a different "funny" catchphrase on each label.

What if this is a way for bud to slow down label approvals? They clog the system. So the three people in charge of label approvals can't get to those IPAs in time and they have to sit in a warehouse fading.

Good Morning People from Texas,

There are 92 pages in this and I am being lazy.

I am going to be in Plano, TX for a few days for work in a few days. Feb 17th-20th
I know from past trips about The Gingerman, Holy Grail and henrys to have a beer.

Any new spots for great tap lists? What about bottle shops as I will have access to a car this time!

Thanks for any tips/helps/suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Or if anyone is close and wants to me up at the Gingerman for a beer that would work too!

Cheers!
James

Lonestar Taps and Caps just opened up recently - growlers and crowlers, 50 taps, big mix and match cooler. Just a few minutes north of Plano. Hit me up closer to your trip as I will surely forget before then and I'll try to make it out to grab a beer.

According to their Instagram account, "This will hit the market in a few weeks." I hope that means bottles will be available at Jester King.

Yeah, as far as I know, Freetail is only distributed in San Antonio, other than Jester King. Wonder if Silver Eagle has plans to distribute elsewhere.

[boogercrack]

[maca1028]

Who?

 

[BusinessSloth]

Who?

A brewery with beers that tasted like bad homebrew. I think it's in Stafford.

 

[Lutter]

Who?

I brewery that had to prolly go down on the beer buyer for HEB to get on shelves.

Full impact non-stop action. Sploosh.

I'd heard that they were going to be canning their beer... so this is kinda strange. Guess they ran out of money *shrug*

looks like a lot of people either cant read or cant follow instructions, so you have a pretty good chance of snagging one!
