Texas Special Beer was created by the Spoetzl Brewery in Shiner, Texas in 1933. It was originally known as Texas Export, before the name “Texas Special” was adopted, after a passenger rail line that went from St. Louis, Missouri to San Antonio, Texas.
Spoetzl Brewery was purchased in 1989 by The Gambrinus Company, and by that time the Texas Special brand had been abandoned. However, in 2024, Spoetzl relaunched the brand in 12 ounce and 24 ounce cans.
