According to Goldberg, UTRGV is the first school in the UT System to have their own beer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Los Vaqueros beer will be available at local H-E-Bs, restaurants and UTRGV athletic events that serve alcohol. Goldberg expressed how he is looking forward to seeing the brand in local places.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\"><blockquote><p>\u201cI\u2019m really excited to see our brand in so many new places. In H-E-Bs, and other stores and restaurants. I just think that whether you drink or not just walking by Los Vaqueros in the aisles, I think seeing the tap handle at the restaurants, that has an impact,\u201d said Goldberg.<\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that the university has its own beer, students are looking forward to what else UTRGV can bring to the table in the future.Public Relations junior Michael Sanchez discussed the opportunities this has opened for the university and the Rio Grande Valley.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\"><blockquote><p>\u201cIf they&#8217;re willing to do something like this, like collaborate with a local brewery to make a Vaquero beer, then I think that they can do a lot of different things, especially around the valley,\u201d said Sanchez.\u00a0<\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>5X5 Brewing Co. will be hosting a tailgate party launching the new beer to fans and more at 4 p.m. Friday May 12 at the UTRGV Baseball stadium before the game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information please visit&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/goutrgv.com\/news\/2023\/4\/12\/utrgv-athletics-and-5x5-brewing-partner-to-create-los-vaqueros-beer.aspx\">goutrgv.com&nbsp;<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is Kevynne Aleman for Vaquero Radio.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kevynne Aleman 04\/19\/2023 On Wednesday April 12, UTRGV athletics announced their very own Los Vaqueros beer in partnership<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":26,"featured_media":5966,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"cybocfi_hide_featured_image":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[34,14],"tags":[555,46,194,42,26],"class_list":["post-5965","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-entertainment","category-sports","tag-555","tag-sports","tag-spring","tag-students","tag-utrgv"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>CHEERS TO THE VAQUEROS!
