     Pine Belt Cans hit market
Posted by Dave on 5/7/2008
Hi Everyone,
     The first major shipment of Pine Belt cans shipped out last week and are on the market.   They can be found in Houston liqour stores of good repute.  Some might even call them Spectacular.  We are also planning a pub crawl on the north side of H town mid-June.  Thanks for all of y'alls support - the Ale is selling great!
Keep posted for more news soon.....

     Tours and Availability
Posted by Webmaster on 4/27/2008
Hi All

After talking with Brewer Dave he mentioned that the tours will be every Saturday at 1pm for the foreseeable future so come down and visit us if you want to take a look around.

Also, due to a slight SNAFU, there is going to be a delay of another week before Pine Belt Pale is available in one of the larger liquor store chains in the Houston area.  Wish we could be more specific, but again due to TABC Law we can't, sorry guys.  But if you should be able to find it at some small places in Conroe.

Hope everybody had a great weekend!
Cheers!

     Mailing List and News Article
Posted by Webmaster on 4/23/2008

Hi everbody

Just a quick note here.  But I finally was able to get the mailing list form to work.  If you would like to signup for the Southern Star Brewing Company's mailing list then you can signup by going to the Contact Us page and enter your name and email address.

We plan on using the list to help keep all our customers apprised of news at the brewery including tours, new beers, and whatever else our brewer wants to talk about.

Also there was an article about Southern Star Brewing in The Courier of Montgomery County which is a Conroe newspaper.

You can view the article here:

     Tours, Sale locations and jobs
Posted by Webmaster on 4/22/2008
Hi ya'll

Dave has been super busy creating more batches of beer and hasn't had a opportunity to update the news.  So I will try to answer a few questions here.

First off.  Yes the tours will continue after April and will still be held on Saturdays at 1pm.  Dave and Brian just wanted to see what sort of attendance they would be getting, and so far it has been very good.  So they plan on continuing the tours on Saturdays at 1pm for the foreseeable future.  But keep an eye out on the site for any changes to this schedule.

Second.  As to where you can buy Pine Belt Pale Ale.  Unfortunately TABC Law restricts us from telling you where to purchase the beer.  But we can say that it is now available in a few small stores in the Conroe area.  And hopefully in a few weeks it will be available at one of the Houston areas larger liquor store chains that has a good selection of beer.  Wish we could be more specific...just wanted to let you know it is beginning to trickle into the market place.

Finally.  We have had many job inquiries made(It is really flattering).  But at this time we don't have the funds to pay anybody else(not to mention ourselves).  And it will be probably a year or so before we can seriously consider hiring full time employees.  Sorry about that guys.

Oh and one more thing.  I don't know why I didn't add this before the Grand Opening, but I have put in a directions page(if you didn't notice) to help you find Southern Star Brewing.  Just click on the Directions tab to where I have put both verbal directions, map and a form(courtesy of Mapquest) to give you directions to the brewery.  Note however, that MapQesut and Google Maps both have the address marker about one driveway ahead of the actual location(this is only noticeable when you go to the satelite view).  If you use the satelite view our brewery is the one with multiple warehouses not hte single building.

Thanks again for all the good vibes and eagerness people have shown in supporting our small brewery!
