Best New Cocktail Bars in Austin, April 2025 | Eater Austin

"Hopsquad Brewery, located in North Burnet, launched this cocktail bar in late August. Specializing in agave spirits such as tequila, mezcal, sotol, and raicilla, the bar offers a combination of classic and unique cocktails, including the Xoco Boulevardier, a mix of Italian amaro, sweet vermouth, Wild Turkey Rye 101, and mole bitters. But don’t be shy from drinking your agave spirit straight up. The intimate setting features bright colors, exposed brick, and lush plants, creating a Mexican-inspired atmosphere. Although there is no outdoor seating, the indoor area provides a comfortable space to enjoy drinks and bar snacks." - Darcie Duttweiler
