$1,673 in mixed-beverage sales, March 2025 (-87.2% vs. February 2025)

RAILS & ALES TAPHOUSE LLC also filed a mixed-beverage return for June 2025 reporting no receipts.

📊About RAILS & ALES TAPHOUSE LLC

RAILS & ALES TAPHOUSE LLC reported mixed-beverage sales at 519 E DAVIS ST, LULING, Texas 78648 in Caldwell County. Its last reported month was March 2025, at $1,673. The Comptroller record stops there. A stopped filing is not proof of closure — when a bar changes hands the new owner files under a new taxpayer and location number, so the old record goes quiet while the doors stay open.

Across its filing history this location reported $482,139 over 23 monthly returns, August 2023 through June 2025 (2023 – 2025). That is a lifetime sum, not a monthly figure — the two are separated everywhere on this page. Its strongest single month on record was March 2024, at $44,990.

The Texas Comptroller records the mixed-beverage responsibility for this location as having ended on 2025-06-12. That is the state saying the permit period closed, which is stronger evidence than a simple gap in filings — but it still describes a permit, not a front door.

📈Monthly Receipts, August 2023 – June 2025

23 monthly returns filed by RAILS & ALES TAPHOUSE LLC. Months with no filing are absent from the series rather than plotted as zero — a missing month means the venue did not file, which is not the same as reporting nothing. A month that was filed with no receipts is a real filing and is plotted, on the baseline and marked, because that too is a different fact from either of the other two.

Return filed, no receipts

4 of these 23 months were filed as a return reporting no receipts — plotted on the baseline and ringed, because a filed $0 return is a real filing, not revenue. Months with no return filed at all are not in this series: the line skips them rather than dropping to the baseline, so a gap in filing never reads as a month of zero sales.

❓Frequently Asked Questions

Is RAILS & ALES TAPHOUSE LLC still open?
The Texas Comptroller records the mixed-beverage responsibility for RAILS & ALES TAPHOUSE LLC as having ended on 2025-06-12, with its final return filed for June 2025. That is the state stating the permit period closed, which is the strongest closure signal in this dataset — but it describes a permit, not a front door. That return reported no receipts — a filed return with nothing on it, which is not a month of trade. Its newest month with receipts is March 2025, at $1,673. A stopped filing is not proof of closure — when a bar changes hands the new owner files under a new taxpayer and location number, so the old record goes quiet while the doors stay open.
How much does RAILS & ALES TAPHOUSE LLC make? (March 2025)
RAILS & ALES TAPHOUSE LLC reported $1,673 in mixed-beverage gross receipts for March 2025, -87.2% against February 2025 and -96.3% against March 2024. That is a single month, not an average: over its whole reported history the venue has filed $482,139 across 23 months. This is mixed-beverage (alcohol) receipts only, not total business revenue. RAILS & ALES TAPHOUSE LLC also filed a mixed-beverage return for June 2025 reporting no receipts. A zero-receipt return is a filed return with nothing on it — most often a formality on a permit period that has closed — so it is not read here as a month of trade, and no percentage on this page is measured from it. The figures above cover March 2025, the newest month with receipts.
Where was RAILS & ALES TAPHOUSE LLC located in LULING?
RAILS & ALES TAPHOUSE LLC filed mixed-beverage returns for 519 E DAVIS ST, LULING, TX 78648, in Caldwell County. The address is taken from the venue's filings, the most recent of which covers June 2025.
What did RAILS & ALES TAPHOUSE LLC sell?
Over July 2024 – June 2025 (the last 12 reported months), RAILS & ALES TAPHOUSE LLC reported 48% liquor, 0% wine, 51% beer and 0% cover charges. The largest share was beer. Only alcoholic beverage sales and cover charges are reported to the Comptroller — food sales are not in this dataset.
What time period does the RAILS & ALES TAPHOUSE LLC data cover?
23 reported months, August 2023 through June 2025. Mixed-beverage receipts publish about three to four weeks after a month closes; the newest month currently published for the Austin metro is August 2026. Every figure on this page names the exact window it covers, because a single month, a trailing-twelve-month total and a lifetime sum are three different quantities.
Where does RAILS & ALES TAPHOUSE LLC's revenue data come from?
The Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts publishes Mixed Beverage Gross Receipts, a monthly record every Texas mixed-beverage permit holder is required by law to file. This page reads that dataset directly and adds no estimates, no modelled figures and no user reviews.

ℹ️How to Read This Page

What mixed-beverage gross receipts are

Every bar, restaurant and venue in Texas holding a mixed-beverage permit must report its monthly alcoholic-beverage sales to the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts. Those returns cover liquor, wine, beer and cover charges. They do not cover food, retail or non-alcoholic sales, so these figures are a slice of a venue's business, not its revenue.

Why every number here names a window

A single month, a trailing-twelve-month total and a lifetime sum are three different quantities, and averaging a venue's whole history produces a number that has never been true of any actual month. Each figure on this page therefore carries the exact period it covers. Where a comparison needs history this venue does not have — a full prior year, two complete twelve-month windows, three complete calendar years for a seasonal index — the comparison is omitted and the reason is stated, rather than shown as a zero.

How current is this?

Receipts publish about three to four weeks after a month closes. The newest month currently published for the Austin metro is August 2026, and every recency judgement on this page is measured against that month rather than against today's date — so a late publication by the Comptroller never changes a venue's status. RAILS & ALES TAPHOUSE LLC last filed for June 2025, 14 months behind it.

What a stopped filing does and does not mean

A stopped filing is not proof of closure — when a bar changes hands the new owner files under a new taxpayer and location number, so the old record goes quiet while the doors stay open. A gap can also be a remodel, a seasonal close, a permit transfer or a slow filer. This page never states that a business is closed; it states when it last filed.
