Are they differently classified because of the food offerings though?

Pretty sure they are still over 51% revenue from alcohol.
Really sucks for all the breweries that were doing it the right way that they get lumped in with downtown bars that refuse to follow the rules.
Here in Austin we've been to Jester King and newly opened Hold Out and both were doing a really really good job of keeping folks and their staff safe. It was really nice to get out and drink a draft beer and support local business. Hate it that they'll be punished for the acts of careless money grubbing 6th street bars.

Agreed, it's a shame. Unfortunately there just isn't enough diligence out there for business to operate at reduced capacity and with increased cleanliness standards. It has to be done by the company (brewery, bar) itself on their own dime.
I feel that the smart ones are the places putting in new operations and adapting to the situation. People in the long run will stick to these companies more and appreciate the effort they put into it. The dumb ones are the ones that just opened doors and went back to operations same as normal, and didn't enforce social distancing or mask wearing.
On a more grand scheme of things, I think after this whole situation, in say 5, 10 years, the general public is going to expect food and drink joints to have much better cleanliness. I think that's an expectation that more and more of the public is going to demand (and choose where to go to based off of).
Plus, it helps when a brewery is clean because then you at least know they put care into the process behind the scenes.
/end rant.

Got an email from the last mile delivery company earlier today letting me know that my package would be delivered by July 1.

This doesn't make it any easier on you, but I'm going to pick mine up this afternoon from the Hackbarth office in town.
Where is that office located

How long do you want to ignore this user?
That sounds hideous. I have to try it.
I've had Islla Street's Suavecito 37 and it was really good, but that's all I've had from them. Tiny brewery, I think.
Wish I could get some of these from Islla!

solid day of beer mail arrivals
FYI- outdoors at redhorn seems to be open.
Islla had a Selena themed stout conditioned on conchas called "Concha La Flor" that I didn't get to try. Everything I've seen from them has been pretty creative.
Made another pull thru Brash this afternoon to pick up some Cali & Wet Hopped EZ7

F-<k yeah.
To be clear, the Three Floyd's rum and gin is for my wife. I haven't tasted hard liquor in 7 years. And yes, just celebrated 7 years of being not dead thanks to clean living.
