Texas Special
Texas Special goes back to a lager first brewed in 1933 to mark the end of Prohibition; after decades off the market it returned in 2025 with a reworked recipe, brewed with artesian well water. It pours bright gold with a light head. The aroma shows soft malt sweetness with grain and fresh bread, lifted by a delicate floral hop note. The body is light and clean with moderate carbonation, a gentle bitterness balances the malt, and the finish is smooth with a faint lingering sweetness.
