Ballast Point Pale Ale The Original. Not a big IPA guy but after doing research this is actually a Kolsh German style beer. Made with German hops that are noticeable but not over powering like a lot of IPA's. The Wheat and the yeast give it a nice balance and crispness.

It's been a long time since I've been to JK, I might have to get some "family" together and make a day trip to the hill country.

That one bottle limit for MvB sucks. I'll only have my wife with me if we go.

I think bomb is just pretty easily attainable at this point so it's sitting around longer.

Did JK drop the online reservation system that they used for CdT and MvB release last year?

Batch 1 of MvB was 1200 bottles I believe... So, 3000 bottles doesn't really warrant a reservation system. I don't think you'll see this again at JK. Natural Union was 800 bottles and they didn't have a reservation system.

Don't think its been passed yet, but it would allow all breweries/brewpubs under a certain size to sell bottles and growlers on site. JK can only sell bottles cause they call themselves a "brewpub". However, they can't sell growlers right now.

Picking up growlers at breweries here in Austin would be pretty bad ass...

Why would people travel to Austin to attend SXSW only to drive out to the hill country to grab some beer?

is there a legal definition of "brewpup"? Does JK have a kitchen?

I thought it had to do with quantity of barrels and nothing to do with food. I was also under the impression Stanley' Farm House Pizza was a separate entity.

I went one year during SXSW and it was a cluster of SXSW hipsters... Most that I talked to were from out of state. Still remember a heifer got lose from the farm next door and this CA hipster just about crapped her pants.

Yep... Brewpub in TX has nothing to do with food really. Stanley's is a seperate entity all together. And yes, their pizza is delightful.

Wait.. TX has their own definition of Brewpub?

Good lord.

A brewpub should be a brewery that serves food.. hands down.
And there is also distillerypub; A law just passed in CO to allow these.

So in TX, do you define yourself as a brewpub solely for the fact you want to sell beer on site?

Any idea what weekend? I guess with interactive ending there are plenty of kilted neck beards that could hang around for a couple more days to snag some beer.

In Texas, there is a brewpub license and a production brewery license. If you are a brewpub, you can now sell beer onsite and to go (since 2013), up to 5,000 barrels I believe. If you are a production brewery, you can now (since 2013) sell beer for onsite consumption only. I think JK changed their license from production brewery to brewpub after the law changed in 2013. I don't believe TABC has any requirements for brewpub vs. brewery, just limitations in each.

Serious question: What is the justification for these laws period? I get the license requirement, but how is the public good being served by having quantity restrictions.

It's not the public good, but the well-being of major distributors.

So a brewery with kitchen and only selling beer for onsiteconsumption is not a brewpub? Got it. Makes perfect sense.

I don't even know what I'm looking at or what brewery that is from.
