I saw no blue sign or red "51%" sign at all. But I did see a very old "no guns allowed" sign. It looked like it was at least 15 or 20 years old, I kid you not. From memory it quoted PC46.02(I think, don't hold me to that).

I spoke to him in length about it and had a very friendly and cordial conversation regarding it. I even asked him if I should patronize his establishment, with him knowing that I will become a CHL holder.

By the time we had finished our conversation, for some strange reason, I became very thirsty and went back into the beer hall to quench my thirst. And much to my surprise, they only had 20 spigots of draft beer coming out of the wall, not the 40 I originally reported. What can I say? I'm a Texan, and I reserve the right for literary privilege.

The Text is on the license itself, about halfway down. It says:

"Sign = Blue"
or
"Sign = Red"

Did you see either of those on the actual license? One of them Has to be there.

Ok, LB means mixed beverage, late hours. Thanks!
Not so fast, keep reading. It's what is NOT listed that IS important to know. Hint "FB".

I would not carry in there given what is shown on the TABC web site until I had more information (personally saw the actual license).
While the presence of a FB, food and beverage permit does mean it is NOT a 51%, lack of one does not mean that it IS.
You can be <51%, and have a LB, with no FB. a FB permit gives the location certain exemptions. It is optional, and not required for a non-51% location.

The only way to 100% know for sure, is to actually go and look at their license. Until someone does that, it is still not 100%.

Re: J. Gilligans

Next time you're in there, ask to see their liquor license.

That's the only way to be 100% sure.

If it says "SIGN=RED" Then it's 51%.
