The 13 Best Breweries In Austin

"You’ll likely find at least one of Austin Beerworks’ core beers in nearly any bar in town. They’re simple and clean versions of a lot of classic styles—pale ales, IPAs, and pilsners, in particular. But head to the big taproom in Sprinkle Valley and you’ll have access to about a dozen different core and seasonal beers, all set on 64 acres. There’s disc golf and board games if you need something to do with your hands, and excellent smoked meat tacos from Yellow Bell if you need something to do with your mouth. There’s also another taproom in North Austin with the same beers, and about 63 fewer acres. " - nicolai mccrary
