Making this for Pancakes and Booze shows this fall in Austin, San Antonio, and Houston. So if I was already doing a piece featuring Prickly Pear ice cream, it seems obvious that this show would need one about Prickly Pear beer as well.

I’m from the mid-west and when I first heard people ate cactuses I was all, “shut up!” Then the idea of them producing sweet tasty fruits was a shock as well. Now putting them in beer? Weird. Taking the better National Beer of Texas and mixing it with a fruity flavor is weird. It is a shock every time I taste it, but you know what? It works. So shut the hell up.

Now where can I find prickly pear colored candles!?

Keep digging, WOODCOCK 🪏

After a long exile in South Texas climbing out of a nihilistic funk, Otis Woodcock has found his way back to the open skies and quiet horizons of the American prairie. Having earned an MFA from Miami University, Ohio, he left his ancestral home in southern Indiana, spending the last three decades between Louisville, Kentucky, and San Antonio, Texas, developing his Iconoclasmatic Pop Art™ practice. On this journey, an anxious recovering Catholic and cancer survivor gradually evolved into the optimistic existentialist whose work is less interested in providing answers than in questioning certainty. Today, Woodcock lives and works where the seasonal rhythms and expansive landscapes of the Midwest serve as the backdrop for an ongoing exploration of belief systems, cultural inheritance, and the subtle poetry of ordinary things.
