30-year-old Pelican Brewing looks to non-alcoholic beverages and new locations for expansion
Pelican Brewing owners Jeff Schons (left) and Mary Jones (right) with brewmaster Darron Welch (center) Pelican Brewing is betting on craft soda and variety to boost grocery store sales, and in-person experiencing taprooms to carry the good vibes and Oregon coast centered brands draft beer into their fourth decade. The iconic Oregon Coast craft brewery that started as a brewpub in sleepy Pacific City has been one of the most award-winning breweries in the world and inspired a generation of brewers and that legacy is at the forefront as they celebrate their 30th anniversary this year. As a fan and observer of Pelican Brewing’s legacy since 1996, it has been fascinating to watch the brand go from hard to get destination location, to widely available grocery store best-seller. Pelican’s classic Kiwanda Cream Ale ( now called just Kiwanda ), Pilsner, mixed packs, and the extremely popular Beak Breaker Double IPA is often the best price to quality ratio deal in the store.

2025 Year in review: Craft beer's continued mantra - adapt, adjust...survive
All logos and graphics the property of their respective owners. Image: Brian Brown/Beer in Big D. Another challenging year for the North Texas craft beer industry has come to a close. Yes, there are still headwinds. Yes, breweries are still struggling. Yes, growth is still stagnant (for the fourth year running), but a flat growth curve is better than one in a downward spiral, and North Texas is still holding firm (give or take) in terms of overall brewery numbers. And yes, a lot of these same things were said last year, and the year before that. It's just that the market environment hasn't changed much. If anything, headwinds are stronger ( according to the Brewers Association ), so many of the same messages from past years continue to apply - adapt, adjust...survive. As it applies to brewing operations, adjustments could mean changing up a product line, or even a business model. We've seen instances of both over the past few years, as owners have been putting other beverage types on t

A visit to the new Bosque River Taphouse in Stephenville
A flight of beers paired with the Hothead Buffalo Ranch Chicken Sando at Bosque River Taphouse (Photos © Brian Brown/Beer in Big D). This weekend, time was spent catching up on new facilities setting up somewhat outside the orbit of the immediate Dallas-Fort Worth area. One of these, Bosque River Taphouse of Stephenville, originally opened in a temporary space in late 2023. The company has since upgraded to an expansive new spot at 320 S. Harbin Dr., just south of the campus of Tarleton State University . Sean and Amanda Mosher form the duo behind the family-owned business, which completed the move to its new locale in May. The couple now operates the brewery and taproom in a 15,000 square foot building fronted by roughly 7,000 square feet of outdoor space and a sizable dedicated parking lot. On the inside, available area is divvied up between larger and smaller dining sections, the kitchen and the brewhouse, with the main dining room surrounded by more than a do
