    I can go on all nigh on this topic. Sisyphus is among my favorite Texas brews, I think that is only released once a year. Though it seems to sit around all year for some reason?

    Anyway...

    Live Oak Hefe
    512 Pecan Porter
    Austin Beer Works Pearl Snap
    Cask Saint Arnold Ellissa
    Karback Weisse Versa

    Can't pick just one. Those are my go to brews

    I think they brew it once a year, but brew enough that they call it year round.
    And oh yes, Pecan Porter.

    I need to pick up some Zoe. Saw some at Specs, and did not get any. I need to get back there soon.

    Oh, I forgot, must be bottled and easily found at an average bottle shop.

    How about canned? I'm going to say Hops & Grain Zoe, followed closely by Alt and ABW Pearl Snap.

    For tap, Pecan Porter

    I knew before I opened this thread that Paul was going to hit the nail on the head with everything I had to say.

    Yeah canned works. Just looking for more Texas ideas that I can drink at home any time of the year.

    I'm really enjoying Four Squared.

    When BBA Temptress finds its way into bottles, its going to destroy more than just DFW... I can't wait.

    Edit: If it had to be year round only, Temptress.

    Sisyphus is actually brewed twice a year now; in March and October. I love it when it's fresh and hoppy.

    Don't think ive ever even noticed this one in stores (San Antonio). I'll keep an eye out.

    I don't think you actually get it there. Hops & Grain is pretty much in just Austin and is now just going to Dallas. I also believe Houston got a 1-time drop last month as well (at Spec's DT)

    I've seen it multiple places around Houston. My local Kroger had quite a bit actually. Zoe was outstanding. Had one as a mix six pack and want to get more.

    Endeavor is probably my favorite.

    (512) IPA (ABW Fire Eagle right behind it)
    Live Oak Hef (Karbach Weisse Versa is a close 2nd)
    Peticolas Velvet Hammer


    Sounds like I need to try Zoe.
