It's a matter of interpretation — and a little math — as to whether your favorite Texas brewery has reopened.
The Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission made another move late Thursday that allowed breweries with open air seating, kitchen, restaurant or permanent food truck, to reopen under certain circumstances.
"It's essentially clarifying the calculation," said Alex Pasternak co-owner of Roughhouse Brewing located between San Marcos and Wimberley. "Given the data, they are requesting starts in April, when we were shut down and only selling to-go beer (which is excluded from the equation). Our on-site alcohol sales looked good. We also have a permanent kitchen so this too, is part of the equation."
