TABC label and brewery approvals has been slower this week than previous weeks. Braindead seems to be making moves to receive label approvals for all of their beers. AleSmith is also sending Vietnamese Coffee Speedway to Texas, which is one of the best non-BA variants of Speedway that they offer. And then there is Audacity, who wins the most WTF name of the week.

This week’s TABC Label Approvals:

K = Keg

Brewery Approvals:

Note: I have only been putting new brewery approvals here – anything that is just getting reapproved, I do not list. Along with this, any macro brewery that is approved, I do not put. An example of this would be things like a South Korean macro brewery.

(For TX breweries: B = Brewery, BP = Brewpub)

Brouwerij Van Steenberge – Belgium
Four Peaks Brewing – AZ
