TX Label Approvals

...was wondering that, myself!

 

Berliner Weisse.

TABC cut the text off and I didnt really notice it.

 

Awesome! That's what I was guessing happened

 

Yes in DFW.

 

Looks to be draft only, and definitely an IMPERIAL Berliner Weisse at 7.45%:

 

It will be only draft unless it takes off then I would like to see it in our can line up.

 

I don't remember seeing this, but Fresh Squeezed was approved in 12oz, hopefully this means the 6 pack release will be here in March.

 

Highly disappointing list of approvals arrived today.

Oktoberfest Lager?

 

What is Sticky Toffee Pudding Ale?

 

Seems redundant, right? Not to mention that it's February.

 

Maybe they are realizing how slow TABC can be and wanted to make sure it was approved by octoberfest season in late June

 

Or, more likely, there are pallets of Ballast Point Oktoberfest waiting for approval since last August.

LOL
(but not really)

 

The Kentucky Pumpkin Barrel Ale is actually really good IMO. Nice pumpkin spicing with a strong, but not overpowering, bourbon presence.

 

If only there were another barrel aged pumpkin beer coming out soon. Hmm...

 

I was just at the brewery and they said nothing about the pumpkin. I wonder if that's for later this year.

 

Per TABC's latest tweet to Prairie about label approval for Coffee and Vanilla Noir, you might as well start trading for it.

 

What did this say?

 

Just speculating, but TABC said their lab will be contacting Prairie in regards to their pending application for those said beers. :/

 

That the TABC lab will be contacting Prairie about their coffee and vanilla noir applications via email. Why does it take a "lab" to approve labels?
