Howdy, Partner! You Craving a Brew on a Sunday? A Texan's Guide to Beerin'
Let's face it, sometimes a Sunday in Texas calls for more than just sweet tea and church bells. Maybe you're fired up from a grill session that left your burgers drier than a tumbleweed, or perhaps you're cheering on the home team and need a frosty beverage to celebrate (or drown your sorrows, no judgement here). Whatever the reason, the question on your mind is: Can I buy a beer on Sunday in Texas?
The answer, my friend, is a resounding yeehaw! But hold your horses (or should we say, longhorns?), there's a slight twist to the tale. Back in the day, Texas had stricter laws than a rodeo judge, making you wait until noon for that Sunday brewski. But fear not, those days are long gone, dusty as a two-dollar Stetson.
Hallelujah! The Glorious Hours of Texas Sunday Beer:
As of 2021, Texas loosened its grip on the beer taps, allowing you to mosey on over to the grocery store or convenience store and grab your favorite six-pack after 10 am on Sundays. That's right, folks, from 10 am to midnight, you can purchase that frosty beverage to quench your thirst and make your Sunday a little more...well, Texan.
Now, here's a friendly reminder: Liquor stores are a different story. Those fine establishments remain closed on Sundays, just like they're shuttered up tighter than a jackrabbit hole during a dust storm. So plan accordingly, partner.
Sundays Don't Mean Dry Days in Texas:
Here's the real beauty of the situation: While you can't buy beer at a liquor store on Sundays, bars and restaurants with food service are open for business after 10 am. That means you can belly up to the bar and order a nice, cold beer to enjoy with your brunch...or lunch...or however you choose to roll on a Sunday in Texas.
Just remember, some places might have stricter policies, so it wouldn't hurt to call ahead and make sure they're serving up suds before you head out.
The Final Verdict: Crack Open a Cold One and Enjoy Your Texan Sunday!
So there you have it, folks. The answer to your Sunday beer blues is a big, fat yes (with a few minor exceptions). So grab your hat, hop in your truck, and head on down to the store to pick up your favorite brew. After all, a Sunday in Texas just ain't complete without a little bit of relaxation and refreshment. Now get out there and make the most of it, ya hear?
