Looks like its official: Big Bend sold off their Tejas lineup and is gonna be brewed by/owned by Gulf Coast Distilling 

(not that anyone on here cares)

[HenryJames 65887]

I don’t know what that means.

[DDD Dad 14251]

All I have left in the fridge are stouts. Youngest offspring drank the last of my Berlinerweisses and [mention]HenryJames [/mention] didn’t get me any Jester Kings.

So I had to settle for this.

[Poe It Up 126]

Can’t believe I just found this thread, I’ve been on a NEIPA kick lately.

wtf is Gulf Coast Distilling? what brands do they make? their page claims they’re the biggest distillery in texas. does Tito’s and Deep Eddy not make their shit in Texas? very confused.

well i guess i could have googled their brands. never heard of a single one of them.

[HenryJames 65887]

Same.

[Dark Horse 2263]

Damn, RIP Petrol Station.

question for you austin area HEB shoppers: does this claim from the distributor about Tupps sound like it could possibly be true? i would think ABW and Live Oak would outsell Tupps by huge margins.

[HenryJames 65887]

Over the last few months if a lot of people switched their purchases of ABW and LO to the brewery directly?

It looks like this claim is specifically about sales at Central Texas HEBs though?

But I'm not seeing it.  LO's packaged beer sales are actually up since the beginning of the coronas.  And I can't walk down a beer aisle at HEB without tripping over a ton of ABW product.

I'd be surprised if this were true, unless they have a really wonky definition of "Central Texas HEBs."

 

[CooterBrown 17904]

I really like TUPPS but I don’t think I’ve seen anything other than Juice Pack at H‑E‑B. To get their really good stuff (DDH series) you have to go somewhere else like Sunrise.

[HenryJames 65887]

Stop going to the shitty Allandale HEB.

I could read that as #1 local (to McKinney) seller in Central TX HEBs. So they’re not comparing to Cen Tex breweries.

it’s from an austin based distributor

Gimp H‑E‑B is best H‑E‑B.

[Okie State 3788]

I enjoy the Tupps IPA's I've had, but damn I struggled through a 4 pack of one of their stouts. Had a really odd aftertaste.

Well shit then. At mine they do have decent shelf space and seem to always have a stack of IPAs at the end cap or something. As utee said, ABW probably has the most inventory/shelf space.

[DDD Dad 14251]

Fuck all of you. We don’t even have shitty HEB’s here in Dallas.

Man I really hate that HEB.  But it used to be way, way worse.

[HenryJames 65887]

Hancock HEB has the Tupps IPA for $6.99 this morning.

[Llano Estacado 1257]

Houston Burbs HEB, checking in.

Would kill for better LO selection or any ABW. Usually just BrazosVB on the shelf, not sure if they’re aggy, but feels like aggy when I buy their stuff.

[mdleast 8259]

But they ain’t bad...

[Dark Horse 2263]

It’s been way too long

 

I also missed the last 4 pack of Haze Not Hate by 5 minutes. That’s a bummer, man. 

[HenryJames 65887]

Which Tupps is that?

[Dark Horse 2263]

The bitter one

[Al_4_ISU 12409]

This is the best hoppy beer coming out of Iowa right now.

[mdleast 8259]

Utah! Get me two!

[Al_4_ISU 12409]

This is the best light lager I’ve ever had.

I got some fresh Double Art Car this time and it was so much better than the six pack I got at the first release.
