8th Wonder Brewery to expand taproom, tasting room offerings

Company was acquired by Bayou City Hemp in June 2023.

8th Wonder Brewery has announced plans to provide more options in its taproom and tasting room, including a variety of low-dose, hemp-derived THC beverages on tap and in cans to-go.

These non-alcoholic beverages range from 2 mg to 10 mg THC per serving. 8th Wonder also plans to make facility upgrades that will enhance the overall experience for consumers.

8th Wonder will also reimagine can designs for four of its core alcoholic beers, including Dome Foam, Cougar Paw, TEX and IP8. The new labels will pay homage to the brewery's Texas roots and rich history.

"Industry partners will see a refreshed aesthetic signifying the evolution of the brand while preserving the iconic spirit of 8th Wonder that Texans know and love," said Ben Meggs, CEO of 8th Wonder and Bayou City Hemp Co

Bayou City Hemp Co. acquired 8th Wonder Brewery in June after a series of collaborations to create non-alcoholic THC beverages. Among 8th Wonder’s offerings are HOWDY seltzers, featuring 2.5 mg of hemp-derived delta-9-THC in Ranch Water and Paloma flavors; Lil Bit seltzers with 2 mg hemp-derived delta-9-THC in Cherry Limeade and Cannaberry flavors; and a range of delta-8 seltzers.
