🍺 GUADALUPE BREWING: “WE’RE NOT SELLING”

Local Favorite Confirms Commitment to Staying Independent

There’s been a lot of talk lately about Guadalupe Brewing’s future, and they’re setting the record straight: They’re not selling! In a recent Facebook post, the beloved brewery wrote:

“Are we selling our business? Rumor fact check: No… we are independently owned, and if the structure changes in years to come, it will be in the best interest of Guadalupe Brewing Co. So for now, we will continue to grow and improve with several new projects coming this year. Cheers.”

Cheers to more pizza, pints, and good times at one of New Braunfels’ most popular spots!
