The boys of the West Texas Investors Club love their beer, but their latest potential investment may need to brew a little longer.
In an exclusive clip of tonight’s episode obtained by TheWrap, Butch and Rooster meet a young man with an electronic beer tap that promises to reduce keg waste. Unfortunately, when he has to compete against a seasoned bartender, his invention falls short.
The series follows Mike “Rooster” McConaughey and his friend and business partner Butch Gilliam, both self-made millionaires in Texas’ oil fields, who now look for entrepreneurs with business ideas in which they can invest. The series also features Gil Prather, a friend of McConaughey’s who is not an investor.
In the first season of “West Texas Investors Club,” McConaughey (brother of Oscar winner Matthew) and Gilliam invested $1.97 million in the ideas of aspiring entrepreneurs.
Season 2 of “West Texas Investors Club” premieres tonight on CNBC at 10 p.m. ET and is produced by Charlie Ebersol’s The Company.
