"The Line Austin hotel opened up this sotol-focused bar on November 12. The menu focuses on sotol — an agave-based spirit — sourced from distilleries such as Desert Door and Marfa Spirit Co. There are cocktails made with the spirit and other agave ones, including the Yucca (sotol, Aperol, a lemon cordial, habanero pepper bitters, and soda) or the Dahlia (mezcal, green peppers, sweet corn, and smoked chile bitters). There are also sotol tastings. The Line’s assistant director of food and beverage Brett Dorsey is overseeing the bar directly, and the bar was developed by the hotel’s group director of food and beverage Brett Anderson and the assistant of food and beverage Rachel Coyne. It’s found on the ground floor of the building sharing a space with Veracruz All Natural’s restaurant near the pool. Its hours are from noon to 10 p.m. Monday through Thursday, 10 a.m. to midnight Friday and Saturday, and then from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. Sunday." - Nadia Chaudhury
