Cowtown-based Rahr & Sons Brewery earned the Clear Channel Outdoor Excellence in Business Award April 22 during the Entrepreneur Expo luncheon at the Fort Worth Convention Center.

The award is more than just a pat on the back: the brewery will receive creative consulting and five billboards with 24-weeks of coverage from the signage giant.

Rahr managing partner Tony Formby was on hand to accept the award.

"Being an entrepreneur is a wonderfully creative process," he said. "Challenges and problems that can be turned into opportunities present themself at every turn. Entrepreneurship is the engine that drives America."
