I'm pretty sure I was a founding member of the "whining about not having craft beer" club as well.

I hope this sort of partnership carries over to Moody as well.

The Grapevine products were available in Moody last season. But adding Deep Ellum would be nice.

Will it be free?

We asked for craft beer at Ford and they responded.
The correct thing to say is Thank You and not turn into a beer snob and get irritated that your personal favorite IPA isn't on the menu.

Probably not since he said it would be sold.

I'm guessing it has to do with the distributor. Best beer in Dallas is Velvet Hammer, though not very sessionable and therefore not very game worthy.

I think it's less of a distribution issue as you can find both Bud (Ben E Keith) and Miller (Andrews) around the hilltop. All of the beers listed are in cans, which is their reasoning I believe. Glad it's finally happening.

Imagine one day if you could get a beer from a tap?

Totally agree! I hope I didn't come off as not being thankful. This is a great development from an athletic department that continues to respond. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Did anybody end up buying beer from the craft beer kiosk? I got confused thinking it was over by where the students sit and, frustrated, ended up buying Michelob Ultra.
