No Bitches Brew BOTTLES in Texas, Bummer!

***Update: Thanks to my commenters. Apparently we will be getting Bitches Brew kegs. I should have been more specific and said we are not getting bottles. Yeah, that's it.



After Sam first announcing, IN TEXAS, the release of new beer to honor the 40th anniversary of the original release of Miles Davis' Bitches Brew, we find out today the brew will not be available here:
Dogfish's Bitches Brew was released in 750ml bottles on 8/31/2010 to Dogfish wholesalers in the following states: AZ, CA, CO, CT, DC, DE, FL, GA, IL, IN. MA, MD. ME, NC, NJ, NV, NY, OH, OR, PA, RI, VA, VT, WA, and WI.
Lame.

I sent a Tweet to the beer rep at Spec's in Houston. He responded that we would be getting Bitches Brew on draught. Did not provide further details but soon will.

It's untrue that Texas isn't getting any Bitches Brew. Three kegs are coming to the state, and one will be in Austin for an event at the Ginger Man. It is true that TABC didn't approve the bottle label, so there won't be any 750's in Texas.
