The following was posted on the Teddy’s Brewhaus Facebook page Sunday afternoon:. Teddy’s Brewhaus has been bought out! We were approached by another Brewery and Winery several months ago, who made us an offer we simply could not refuse. And yes, this means Teddy’s will be moving to another part of the State and no longer housed in Brownwood, Texas. It is Good News for the brand and will certainly create some changes here at what was the Flagship of our company in the Historic Weakley Watson Building. This was by no means an easy decision, and after serious and thoughtful reflection we know this is what will allow our brand to flourish and grow statewide. The private company who has acquired Teddy’s has serious end-roads to brewing and distribution in Central Texas and Fredericksburg, Texas. We are very excited about what this can mean going forward with the Teddy’s Brewhaus brand.
