Its can describes it as coming "From the lukewarm headwaters of the mighty Brazos River." Hank also reveals that the Alamo Beer Company won the Munich Beer Festival of 1849.

Secrets


In the episode of King of the Hill entitled "Beer and Loathing" there is a state-wide shortage on Alamo Beer in Texas. While calling the Alamo company to ask about the shortage, Peggy is told that she speaks Spanish extremely well, and that she would make an excellent Alamo employee. There, she signs a non-disclosure agreement that says that she cannot reveal any of the company's "secrets." She discovers that Alamo Beer distributed in Mexico is contaminated. After making a promise to his wife not to tell Hank, along with Dale, Bill, and Boomhauer all go to Mexico and get sick from drinking Alamo. Hank finally convinces Peggy to tell him the information that she has been withholding, and she reveals that the beer is tainted, and that is why he has been vomiting and having diarrhea. Peggy sneaks into the Alamo board room, and replaces the safe beer that is being served there with tainted beer from Mexico. This, as Peggy had hoped all along, changes the executives' minds on selling tainted beer in Mexico. An interesting point of trivia is the fact that the Alamo beer cans created for the somewhat rare King of the Hill Action figures, is that those cans bear little resemblance to the cans on the show.
