I just see most of the breweries like Jester King, (512), Ranger Creek, Karbach, No Label, Buffalo Bayou, Independence, Live Oak, and a few others having a lot more expanding to do within Texas before they consider other states.
no doubt, but their expansion will be fast, I think. I'm not sure what Karbach and No Label tours are like, but there were 200+ (easily) at Southern Star last Saturday, and tours at Saint Arnold are a madhouse. The support is there, and growing. People cannot get enough of the "standard" releases, and look the hell out when a single batch release hits the shelves.
(personal note: seriously, Saint Arnold, your "we can only make a limited supply, better hurry and get some" marketing tactic is bullshite. You have the room, you charge a lot for them, make more beer)
My cousin in San Diego is working on getting all of his brewing automated, and the setup he has will alow him to use make adjustments for batch sizes. He has mentioned several times that he'd like to start up a nano, but San Diego is a tough spot for it. I've been pushing him to consider Austin, and he loves it out there already. Once the legislative restrictions are removed, particularly allowing breweries to sell directly to consumers, the sky is the limit for Texas breweries.

Karbach and No Label are both on that level.
Karbach started out slow on Saturday, but the gf and I got there right at noon when they started pouring. You get four tastings, typical, and by 1 it was packed. We left around 1:30 and there were easily 200 people in there, probably closer to 400.
