With programs like Texas Brew City and the Texas Brewery Passport app, the Texas Craft Brewers Guild is working to promote the craft beer scene and boost the Texas economy.
The Texas Brew Cities Program was launched by the Guild in 2024 to help Texas become a leader in craft beer-driven economic revitalization and tourism. In Texas, craft breweries are estimated to contribute $4.5 billion to the state’s economy each year. Brew City aims to unite cities of all sizes with the common goal of showcasing Texas as a premier craft beer destination. Visitors can explore a variety of breweries, sample local flavors, and immerse themselves in Texas’ craft beer culture.

How does the passport feature work?
Visiting a brewery effectively stamps your passport and earns you badges and perks. If you tap “Stamp your passport” in the passport section of the app, you’ll get a stamp every time you visit a brewery, and GPS will take care of the rest. Once you receive your first passport stamp, you have two years to redeem your benefits and move up the leaderboard. After two years, your stamp will expire and you’ll have to start over.
