Nearly two years after San Antonio’s Black Laboratory Brewing released its first hard seltzer, the East side outfit is now shifting its focus to that specific type of tipple. Owners Tim Castaneda and Jeff Weihe took to social media Tuesday to share the news, saying drastic increases in cost of goods, decreases in consumer spending and “many other challenges” have prompted them to discontinue their craft beer program. Starting Jan. 1, 2024, Black Lab will make only hard seltzers.
