    I'm a UT alum / fan, but Zwanze Day definitely gets the priority in my book. Enjoy your football games, I'll be enjoying some fantastic beer.

    It's just college football... Of course I guess we don't have a professional football team in this state anymore :slight_frown:

    We're extremely excited to have been selected as a Zwanze Day site for 2013! Given the specific challenges in Texas, many of which have already been mentioned in this thread, we're still ironing out a lot of the details Our first choice would be to see Cantillon (and, for that matter, the rest of Shelton Brothers' portfolio) available in Texas on an ongoing basis, however, given the limited amount of beer that Cantillon has available to sell, and the exorbitantly high cost of licensing in Texas, this may not be a viable option, in which case we have a few other possibilities that we're looking into.

    One thing that is clear is that there's not going to be a whole lot of beer to go around, meaning that unless we dole out samples with an eyedropper, there isn't going to be enough to accommodate everyone who would likely show up, so we'll need to come up with a fair way to determine who gets samples and who does not. A few different possibilities are being discussed on that front, as well.

    As soon as we have more details to share, we'll definitely pass them along.

    Cheers,
    Ron

    This is a game changer, boys and girls. Hopefully the first in a long line of steady wins for Texas beer enthusiasts.

    Sell X number of tickets based on qty of beer. No more allowed in. Easy enough.

    Exact same thing I thought... The Bama game takes precedent over any beer IMO.

    Ron and Jeff! Please limit the amount of people who can go; it would not be cool to have a ton of people come then only a portion of them be able to try the beer.

    Ole Miss at 7pm, this couldn't have worked out better.

    If there's another important game, I can settle for DVR in this case. Have fun DVR'ing Zwanze Day, guys.

    Who cares about college kids playing football? Any pro player would kill them...too soon?

    I don't really care about college football... it just effects my work schedule. Can't take off nights there are games.

    Zwanze trumps College Football. Easy choice for this Longhorn. Aggs choose wisely.
