Situated in the Texas panhandle and marking the midway point of the historic Route 66 drive from Chicago to LA, is the city of Amarillo, Texas. With a population of nearly 200,000 people, Amarillo is the 14th largest city in Texas and is home to five craft breweries.
Pondaseta Brewing Co. is one of those five breweries and has been around since 2018. Owners Trever and Kaleb initially met while playing in a country music band in college and, even though the band fell apart, the two never lost touch. After a decade of homebrewing, the duo met back up to create Pondaseta - which was named after a dirt road in their hometown.
