    So from this page alone there would be approx 4-6 different threads.

    Edit page 3 that is.

    I am a native Texan and understand beer. I can recognize good beer no matter what state its from.

    Origin of a beer or what brewery its from shouldnt have anything to do with how our forum is treated. DFH and Stone both make stinkers too.

    No offense guys, but talk like this is going to get my thread closed, so take it to BMs if its not future release/label/new brewery discussion. <3

    I suggest making a new thread for each Texas brewery as you have questions regarding them.

    It's never been $250 in Texas. In fact I've never seen a retailer charge more than $179 here. I bought my last bottle for $129 at Central Market in San Antonio, but that was 3 years ago in 2009.

    Cheers,
    Chad

    This one looks interesting... Bitter Belgian (Elissa) from the Movable Yeast series is back it looks like.

    Good point I believe they were selling them for $179 in SA. But still, it's tough for me to justify that much. I've had it before and I do believe that it is exceptional, but that's still asking a lot for a bottle.

    I saw approval for Great Divide BA Ruffian months ago. Did anyone ever see it on shelves here?

    Nope on a rope?

    The good news is that we certainly will get BA Ruffian next time around now that it's approved.

    Perry's is always over $200 but most places bounce between $170 and $185 in DFW.

    TX Label Approvals is the new "new releases" thread, i guess it's more specific since we see it on our own TABC approval website then talk about it as opposed to talking about it then confirming that it has indeed hit the shelves in our own respective areas. Guess we *could* make this place a clusterfuck and start a thread per brewery or release. I wonder if week specific releases is too general or not since i have to be "creative" in my thread starting, but then again the inherent problem with TABC is we have NO clue when they will be hitting the shelves until it hits the shelves making the label approval website a true teaser of sorts.

    cheers.

    I think your thread got locked because reps from stores were dropping $'s on stuff (advertisements vs. BA's spotting new releases)...tisk tisk pwsoldier :wink:

    Just bring it back version 2. Really it's very helpful to have a statewide release thread. That way those in different markets can know what's out there and can start the drumbeat for distribution in their own town (SEE:Sixpoint)
