    I have a feeling Ninkasi is going the way of Funkwerks - DFW only for now. They were picked up by Andrews in DFW.

    They self distribute I believe. But, don't expect cans anytime soon.

    Don't new breweries know DFW is terrible? Austin/San Antonio is much better to start distribution :slight_smile:

    It is the route that Ballast Point went, but they expanded to the rest of the state in less than a year. New Holland on the other hand, has done no expansion in twice the time, and after exchanging a few emails with them, it seems like they have no real intention of doing so.

    Amicis Mortis is barrel aged Ensure brewed with butterscotch candy, then refermented with prunes, bridge mix, and Chanel No. 5

    Gonna be a big hit with all the Grandmules.

    That makes sense, I heard it's a collab with Saint Arnold, cut with bread.

    What you really want to keep an eye out for is the Luby's Mac and Cheese variant.
