“As the destination marketing organization for the city, Visit Tyler works to promote the best of our community. The craft brewing scene has been strong for more than a decade. When we learned about the Brew City, Texas, program, we felt strongly that Tyler needed to be among those recognized for supporting our craft brewery businesses. Visitors come to our city for a wonderful experience and to enjoy the outstanding quality of life our community has to offer. The craft breweries play an important role in those efforts and we look forward to seeing how we can continue to promote Tyler through this new Brew City designation,” said Diann Bayes, President of Visit Tyler.

 

 

 

According to Ryan Dixon, co-owner of True Vine Brewing Company with his wife Traci, “We are excited to put Tyler, Texas, on the map as a Brew City! Thank you to Visit Tyler and the community here for helping True Vine fulfill its dreams. Our goal is not to just be a brewery in the city but a brewery for the city!”

With over 400 breweries calling the Lone Star State home, craft beer contributes a staggering $4.5 billion annually to the Texas economy—the third most of any state—and supports more than 30,000 jobs. Still, when it comes to breweries per capita, Texas ranks a distant 47th, underscoring the potential for further industry growth. Despite the challenges hospitality businesses have weathered in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, Texas remains a large state with ample room for craft brewing expansion with further market development, and communities like Tyler are at the heart of that growth. As the organization behind the Brew City, Texas, program, the Texas Craft Brewers Guild serves as the statewide nonprofit trade association dedicated to advancing the Texas craft brewing industry through advocacy and education.

 

 

 

“The Brew City, Texas, program represents a significant milestone in the Texas Craft Brewers Guild’s efforts to support and elevate the craft brewing industry in Texas,” said Caroline Wallace, TCBG Executive Director. “By collaborating with cities like Tyler who are committed to celebrating the unique culture and flavors of Texas craft beer, we aim to drive tourism, stimulate local economies, and further establish Texas as a world-class beer destination.”

 

 

 

Tyler joins other cities across the state including Boerne, Conroe, Denton, Galveston, Lubbock, and McKinney, united in their mission to showcase the best of Texas craft beer and enhance economic opportunities for local businesses. Through collaborative marketing, education, and outreach efforts with the Brew City, Texas, program, Visit Tyler looks forward to continuing to raise the bar for craft beer excellence and welcoming visitors to experience the best of what the city has to offer.
