Nice local branch of the famous brewery. Has big taproom and outdoors deck with patio area in addition. Lots of parking! (Hard to find that in Austin.🤣) Friendly staff and an on-site food truck. All the beer styles they are well-known for. All well made. Attached to the brew/can/distribute facility. Located in the midst of several other taprooms on the north end of town.... take a tour!

Amazing! Very Large! Great Decor! Great brewery. Pet friendly. Food truck outside-we didn't eat. Plenty of outdoor or indoor seating. I'm glad we finally made it here. Will definitely come back.

Family came out here on a Saturday night. It was fight night with live wrestling which was a first in all my brewery visits, to each their own I say, however, the beer here was quite solid. Oskar blues has a storied history and was glad to see the quality of beer carried over to Austin. Good selection of beers here. Even more important, the mgr lex was extraordinarily friendly and made us feel like we were at home there. coconut stout, barrel aged stout and the coffee ale were all top notch (don't worry if that's not your cup o' beer they have a lot of styles for you to try, get a flight and try something new) . Great night out for us here.

Fun brewery. Large open space. Stage setup for music. Friendly waitstaff. Ask for the hat special (little silver hat on tap means $3 beer!) outdoor patio area with hammocks and tents. Lots of beer options. Highly recommended. Great location with plenty of breweries nearby. Going to come again for a tour!

Pros: decently large space, plenty of parking, pretty wide variety of beer options (from typical lagers to a pineapple upside down cake IPA), pretty cool setup for bands, and at least one food truck. Cons: gets hot and loud, pricey for the quality, and has been bought out by a big drink company. Plenty of other local craft breweries nearby.

TLDR: decent beer options with a relaxed atmosphere. I came through here this past weekend. First thing that stood out to me was how quiet everything was. it was early afternoon, and the place was relatively empty. it does have an extremely large open room, which lends itself to this. if you are looking for a more laid back experience, this place is probably a good bet. the beer itself was good. there wasn't anything that really stood out as fantastic, but nothing that really stood out as bad either. Overall, 3/5.

Out of the handful of breweries I visited in Austin, this one is hands down my favorite! It’s VERY spacious, and has plenty of room to sit at the large bar, or the many tables in the venue. They have a decent size stage for live music, but I was there on an early evening, so nothing was going on at that time. There was a decent sized crowd in the place, but it wasn’t too loud and it didn’t make you feel cramped. I mentioned the spacious seating area - they have quite a few long tables that are great for group get togethers. Nice apparel shop with brewery t-shirts, hats, koozies, stickers, and more. They have 16 beers on tap. You can get a sampler flight of four beers for eight bucks - you just can’t beat that with a stick! They have six choices of non alcoholic soda and a sparkling water option. Nice sized patio with a covered tarp to keep the sun off of you and keep you out of the rain. Giant Jenga and other games to play out on the patio - it’s really a fun place to hang out.’’ There’s usually a food truck parked outside - I was told it’s a permanent fixture and their “home base, so check them out. It’s called “Cluck n Burger” and it was awesome. Look for my review for that one coming soon. The beers I had inside were Mama’s Little Yella Pils (I’ve had it before and it’s OK). But the one that blew my socks off was the the Old Chub Scotch Ale. This really surprised me, because I’m not usually into the heavier flavored beers. But this one was just so divine and delectable. I’m gonna have to begin a search for this one in my local beer joints in SA. They’re open from noon to 8pm Sunday and Monday and from noon to 10pm every other day of the week.

I loved that it has lots of shaded spots outdoors for hanging out with the family as well as spacious indoors for watching games. But I didn't like that they didn't have any coffee options or other non alcoholic drinks...

I stopped in here in the middle of the week with several of my fellow craft beer nerds. In order to gain entry to this place, you need to pull completely around the backside or use Energy Dr. which will also have a waiting lot. When you arrive there's plenty of room outside in the beer garden and lots of seating inside complete with a ping-pong table and a pool table. Keep in mind, this place is located just blocks away from the FC stadium which means it gets busy during game days. We had the opportunity to tour the facility itself, which is where the magic happens. This is a fairly large brewery that can supply enough beer for the entire state of Texas. In other words, this is a large scale brewery, not a brew pub. They often have live music here, including open mic night on Tuesdays. You can get a flight of their beers or a pint. They do allow dogs, just not inside. They do have some food truck action happening, otherwise plenty of local dining options nearby. You can also get beer to go. Plenty of photos included.

Spacious digs with meh beer and underwhelming service, alongside a splash of rude. Despite having a plentiful supply of clean, taster glassware, samples were given to us in paper dixie cups. This is the only brewery I've ever experienced samples this way. As none of us had ever been to Oskar Blues before, a member of our party asked for a second sample. We even had cash in hand to show intention to tip. The bartender's response was "Are you actually ordering or just tasting?," poured the sample, gave it to our party member, and walked away from the bar. We waited patiently for several minutes to realize that he had completely abandoned us. How kind. Second bartender finally caught onto what happened, apologized, and stepped in to provide quality service that included a sample in a proper glass (mind you, without our asking or making comments). If it weren't for him, I would only be giving 1 star. Not an experience worth returning to.

Stopped here on a north Austin beer crawl and got a flight. Tried the Pineapple Upside Down (visiting flavor), Marmalade Tropical Hazy IPA, Dallas Blonde and the Ten Fidy Stout. The Ten Fidy was my favorite and had a nice Smokey flavor, and the Pineapple Upside Down was refreshing and not too hoppy for an IPA. The Blonde wasn't my favorite but I also got a chance to sample their lime seltzer which was good. A friend took home a big can of one of the sours because he liked it so much. Vibes were good here and the stage setup is cool even though no one was playing at the time. Patio is pretty and has misters (bless) and the inside has good AC. Bunboy food truck was closed when we got there but it looks like a good beer companion. Entrance is waaaaay in the back of a side road but it gives them plenty of space for a big lot.

I went there yesterday with my son and 2 dogs. This is a great place! We had a couple beers. I had a delicious hibiscus plum sour!! Unfortunately the food trucks were both closed. While we sat outside many families were there with their dogs as well. A group of musicians were playing so we enjoyed the afternoon . Service was great. Next time I won't bring my dogs because there is a ping pong table inside. Plenty of inside and outside tables available. I will be back!!

Great spot to have a beer. Large bar, huge indoor and outdoor area. Pool tables, cornhole, stage and several items to keep your interest. Plenty of seating. Kind of set bar back and could be missed from the street. But it was worth finding.

Great local brewer! These guys supported Barks for Beers, which is how I discovered them. Wonderful selection and friendly staff. 5 paws up!

Great ambiance and good food trucks in the area . They have tons of space for people to hang out in their patio and dog friendly and kid friendly . The peach Beer was good and refreshing . Only downside is that their seltzer is not that great and would recommend to include a few cider options for people who don't drink that much beer.

10 out of 5 stars for hosting events, hospitality, and catered food! If you don't like beer, they have seltzer available (ranch water) and also a stationed food truck outside as well. Oskar allowed our work group to conduct "armadillo racing" outside the building and it was so much fun! Full AV set up and stage created from recycled materials found around Austin TX.

NOT kid-friendly...unless you enjoy being passive aggressively mom shamed for every trivial thing your kids do. We went to OB yesterday at 2pm as our first stop on our Barks for Beers outing that day. There were all of 10 patrons inside their HUGE taproom upon our arrival. Our party included myself, my husband, our toddler girls (ages 3 & 1), and 2 of our friends, so we basically doubled their business just by showing up. Except we weren't welcomed there apparently, at least that's how we felt. Within the first few minutes, some lady who was sitting at the bar on a laptop got up and approached my 3 year old and reprimanded her for pushing around her baby sister's stroller and asked her where her parents were. Turns out, she was an employee of OB as she was later seen behind the bar and did have an OB branded shirt on. We were like 15 feet away from her, had eyes on her the entire time, and didn't see any harm in her pushing around an empty stroller as again, there were hardly any people around and she wasn't damaging anything. Just a toddler doing toddler stuff. She was even making friends with other customers and people were telling us how adorable and social she was. Never for a second thought she was ruining anyone's experience. Maybe 20 minutes later, a bartender reprimanded my husband for not cleaning up the Jenga blocks we'd put on the floor for our girls to play with. Apparently we'd unintentionally blocked the only door they can use to get additional kegs when they run out. There are no signs saying not to block the door, and our kids had been playing there for several minutes and no one had said anything so we didn't know. It's also not the only door leading to their brew area, which was dark and empty. We hadn't picked up the blocks yet only because they weren't done playing with them. I'd already picked up the Exploding Kittens cards and put them away as my 3 year old got them without asking me and I didn't want her to tear or bend any of them so other guests could still enjoy them. I gave them Jenga blocks because they couldn't break them. Well we then picked up the blocks anyway, and moved our stuff away from the forbidden door and then that lady walks up to me and says yet again that they need access to that door and we can't block it. OMG, we get it. We brought children, but we are not children; no need to talk to us like we are. We packed up our stuff and left within minutes and went to a better brewery down the street where the bartender was friendly and engaged - totally different vibe. Every single job I've had since entering the workforce has been customer-facing. I would NEVER treat customers the way we were treated yesterday. Be kind to everyone, but especially your paying customers. Educate people. Don't make assumptions. Put up a sign if there needs to be a permanent clearance in front of a door. Don't reprimand other people's children unless there's a good reason. Get out of the service industry if you can't be nice. Breweries are supposed to be fun & chill, but that's not been my experience at OB (see past review from over 6 years ago) and yesterday was the final straw. We won't be back, but I hope y'all have better luck!

The beer is okay. The service is okay. The food truck is okay. The thing that really doesn't make sense...dog aren't allowed inside. There are a ton of breweries struggling in the area that allow dogs inside but it's to hot to be inside. They could really benefit by allowing pets inside since they have a/c. The establishment themselves Dont prepare food. Hey Oskar Blues, it's Texas and its hot!!!! Some of us like bringing our fur companions

One of the closest breweries, in North Austin, to the Austin FC Q Stadium Oskar Blues Brewery is the best spots to stop and have some pre-game beers all in the air conditioning! Plenty of space to come in with a large group of peeps and even catch some live music on a fantastic and great sounding stage! My best friend and I came in on a busy Saturday afternoon on a game day so there were plenty of people enjoying beer by the pints and all dressed up in their verde gear. We ended up finding a cool spot near the stage to partake in the flight of beers we ordered. I couldn't decide on what to get so we opted for the flights to get us started. Beers - boy oh boy I have never had a smoothie hard seltzer beer ever and Oskar Blues knocked my socks off when I tried their L.A.B. Juice which was super refreshing and looked like a smoothie I make at home. Unsure what was in it but I bet strawberries, banana, and maybe some seltzer apple juice? Either way do not sleep on any of the beers they have on tap that are special to Austin as I am finding out that the beers on tap here differ from their other taprooms in Colorado! What a special thing for Austin! One of the biggest perks of Oskar Blues is the space, the live music, and the air conditioning! Texas has at least 9 months out of the year where it is consistently over 89 degrees even in the Fall. Oskar Blues has the air pumping on hot days like when we visited and had plenty of games and shade outside for us to hang under. We will definitely be back especially to see some live music again. The stage is super professional, large, and the sound man was doing an excellent job for the acoustic performer we saw play that day. I am sure they have epic great shows here.

Stopped in April 2021. Love Oskar Blues. Had a taster of a new sour, guava sour- excellent. Bought a crawler of barrel aged Ten Fidy- not cheap but god stuff. Great brew, nice staff.

I've officially been to Oscar Blues a handful of times and I love it! Out of the 3 or 4 Breweries that I've been to in the area, this one is my favorite! They have free, live music very frequently with a great stage and sound set up. The staff is awesome and to say that they are friendly would be an understatement. A couple of occasions I've been here with my boyfriend's band and they treated the members and their guests with top notch service. Last but not least, their beer is awesome! My go-to is always the Rose for Dayz just because I'm a fruity/citrusy kind of girl haha. This has definitely turned into a regular hangout place.

Oskar Blues is a great brewery in North Austin. Located close to the Domain, they offer a wide variety of beers. As a first timer, the bar tender gave me several samples to try. I went with the Dallas Blonde Ale and was not disappointed... it was actually very good. There were plenty of hightops indoors for seating and the place was packed on a Thursday afternoon (5pm happy hour). I chose to sit on the patio outside where there were more picnic tables, tents, and even cornhole! Fair warning, the parking lot is a bunch of rocks and dirt, so expect your car to be dirty when you leave. It also looks like a giant warehouse from the outside, but the entrance is along the far right side. Definitely try Oskar Blues if you're in the area. One of my favorite breweries so far!

You can never go wrong here, but it was PAcKEd! With the pandemic decided to do To go order. I did try sample if Guava Rodeo, wow delicious! But ended up taking bourbon barrel aged beer home. That is even better!

The biggest brewery I've personally been to. Cold drafts and a huge outdoor patio. I am a huge fan of Dales Pale Ale... I didn't try the food truck but it seems busy. Cool spot!

Fun north Austin brewery that everyone should check out. Spacious taproom and lots of outdoor seating for when the weather is good. The bartenders are always very nice and they have a great beer menu that should suit everyone's tastes. Awesome music playing too!

Nice brewery with plenty of outdoor seating. Staff wearing masks and seating all far apart - def covid friendly! Hand sanitizer for use available. Dog friendly outdoors. Lots of beer choices available for ~$5 per pint. Because of COVID they added an extra $5 charge to our tab, but we could use that credit at the food truck. Gives free bag of chips with the beer. Good music. Would recommend!

Compared to other breweries in the area I feel like Oskar Blues doesn't get a ton of love but I've really enjoyed my experiences when coming here! They do a great job of utilizing their massive space, they're one of the few breweries with tvs (when indoor dining/drinking is available) and they have a massive stage for live music (again when indoor is a viable option). I recommend trying more of their seasonal or offshoot beers if you visit than their staples. For one, their flagship beers are available nationwide and I haven't found any of them to be particularly noteworthy. The seasonal beers cast a really wide net and have had more hits than misses in my experience. Their Death by Coconut Porter and Slow Chill Dunkel were both fantastic and they do a pretty good job with their various juicy IPAs. The food truck has some really tasty tacos and I like that they've partnered with the brewery to give 4$ off a food order for every full pour of beer you order. This does come with the caveat that the prices are kind of outrageous if you don't utilize this option, but it becomes a pretty good deal with it. The tacos are more traditional street taco style, so if that's not your thing they do have some more typical bar fare like burgers, fries, and nachos. Overall, I think it's a great hang out spot. They are reliably not super packed, they have a wide variety of mostly good beers, and have a food truck that will keep you satisfied while you hang out. I don't think any of the other breweries in this part of Austin can boast all three of those, so I highly recommend!

This was a great find! Driving there at night, you might think you are driving into a forbidden, industrial area but turning on the street where the brewery is, you will see the lights. I happened to come on a night where there was live music. The stage is in a great location and there are table and chairs for people to sit and enjoy the show. The decor is very unique and you can tell you are in a brewery. The staff was very nice and I truly enjoyed talking to the friendly bartenders. The outside area has long picnic type tables were a large party or group of friends can come and hang. I went alone, but a cute programmer by the name of Daniel came and chat to keep me company! I will definitely visit this location again for a beer!

This regional brewery has a spacious indoor area with a formidable stage space for local talent to perform on and a projector screen for game nights. They have an outdoor space as well with minimal shade. They are pet friendly outdoors. Friendly staff and average Untapped rated brews. I enjoyed my flight here, everything was OK. With all the other spots in town, this is not top of my list, but wouldn't refuse to go here either. If they opened up the fences between properties they could build a direct walking path to the stadium.

Looking for a local brewery to grab a drink and have good barbecue, I picked this place because it was close to the office and hotel and it had a decent ranking on everyone's favorite food app, "Yelp". Arriving to the site, I was a little concerned that I may have read the Yelp review wrong. The opening is a driveway to a parking lot behind an industrial warehouse. So you might find it a little disconcerting as you drive over 100 feet of driveway and then cross into a chain-link surrounded dirt parking lot. What hit me in the face was the taproom essence, which smelled of old beer and sanitizer fluid. Not a big fan of the smell. Then the décor of the taproom reminded me of a mix of a 1970's New Year's party and a crushed velvet weekend band cave. (Lol, I don't know how good the bands are that play there but they had it set up like it.) What I thought was strange was the noise level which was almost whisper-like and the lack of any music playing over the speakers. I may have gone at an off time but still, there should have been some music playing in the background. The beer was tasty. I had the Can-O-Bliss Citra and the G-Knight. The bouquet off the Can-O-Bliss was amazing but lamentably, the flavor wasn't there to back it up. I preferred the G-Knight much more. It was good go-to IPA. Sitting there I was hungry and asked to see the menu. They handed me a short menu and told me that I had to order outside at a food truck that was parked in the parking lot. It was raining and I wasn't too keen on ordering outside but I was hungry so I sucked it up and did it. You can see my review at Wunder Pig Barbecue - Yelp. But the long and short of it is the food was a big disappointment. And there was no bar food available. No finger foods! Bummer. I realize you aren't a restaurant but please kick that food truck off the parking lot and get one that serves bar/finger food and better barbecue.

Oskar Blues Brewery is located in Austin, TX right next to Caliber Collision on Metric Blvd. Luckily-- my father in law works right next door to this Brewery. He was the very one that introduced us to this place. I love craft beer and I must say I love Oskar Blue's beers!!! What I enjoy the most about this place is that they offer beer-flights! My top favs has got to be Mamas Little Yella Pils and Can-O-Bliss IPA! I love that they also have live music here. I believe when a band is performing, that's the only time they won't be able to sell you a beer flight.. Music could get super loud so luckily they have outside seating as well. It's crazy how busy they could get! Lol. All the tables inside fill up super quickly because of the live music. Overall experience: fantastic. I love the atmosphere, also this brewery is clean & spacious. The workers are very friendly and I always have a good time conversing with them. Great music and even better beers! Until next time

The first time I tried Oskar Blues beer was the Can-O-Bliss hazy IPA from HEB. It was pretty good, so I knew one day I would make the trip up north. And it was definitely worthwhile. The beautiful thing about Oskar Blues is the accessibility. Everybody knows about Dale's Pale Ale Walk into any bar, dive or elevated, and you'll probably see DPA on their draft pours selection. Also, the Austin Costco sells the variety pack of canned beers, which is how I also got to know their "Canarchy Collective"--is what they call it. In the taproom, both of us had their taster flight, which was four beers for $8. It's pretty standard flight pricing in Austin. I had a hard time choosing what to taste because everything looked so good. However, I chose the Guayabera PA, Jai Alai IPA, Rose for Daze and their Can-O-Bliss (because why not choose something you already love?). I enjoyed all of them pretty much, and I love that their flight rack isn't one of those "drag and hold" types. THANK YOU. We all know the drag-type rack causes spillage. Which means less. beer. Boom. We sat inside because...Austin summer heat. There were annoying slow phat flies that kept on bothering us, which was a bummer. However, everything else was great. Our taptender was very chill as there were basically only a few other people in the taproom that afternoon with us. They also have phone chargers WITH the cables just in case your phone is dying! Amazing. Plus their wifi is strong and restrooms clean. They have plenty of outdoor and indoor seating (think college mess hall size), and a merch corner if you are in the mood to get some of their swag. I also enjoyed how their brewing room is open for onlookers to peer through. There is tons of space and even a stage for live music, it seems. Google maps didn't take us to the front parking area, however there are signs amongst the industrial businesses there (the best microbrews are always hidden in the industrial businesses!) for "back parking."

This place is a great place to hang out! My girlfriend and I came here on a Saturday and it was really nice outside and they have inside and outside seating. They have a stage for music and a wide variety of beers to choose from. The service was great and they sell some cool swag as well. I will definitely be going back!

This is a fun Brewery that we go to frequently. Not only is the beer tasty but they have a large stage with live music throughout the week. There are plenty of tables and even a few very comfy high-backed vinyl booths. Also, the typical beer garden area outside with strung lights, roomy tables and corn hole games. The bands that play are varied with an emphasis to blues and rock. We have discovered a few local bands we like just from going for a beer on a Friday evening. For certain bands, they will clear a small area in front of the stage for dancing. The beers they offer are good, but its a smaller selection than some breweries. They stick to a few classics like several IPAs, a couple stouts, a pilsner. Have yet to seen any kind of sours offered. Would love to see a specialty sour. There is a Wunderpig barbecue truck on site with very tasty sandwiches. Be sure and grab napkins! Large clean bathrooms, friendly bartenders, and plenty of parking too. Can't go wrong here.

Recently stopped in for a farewell party for a coworker. The atmosphere is relaxed - open and large, with lots of space both indoors and out. I wouldn't personally choose to revisit. I didn't really feel they had a large selection of beer, especially for a brewery that really only serves beer. Water is self-serve from a sink, into tiny cups, and they don't have ice. If you're the DD, they don't have many options to drink besides tap water in very small cups (I think someone in our group got a bottled root beer). If you aren't a big drinker or enjoy your water cold, you won't enjoy your time here. One of our group had to essentially beg for a normal sized cup to serve herself water from the sink, and when a different girl asked, she was told she couldn't have a bigger cup. The thing that really sealed the deal and added this place to our company blacklist is that at the end of the night, after our VP paid the tab (which included a 20% gratuity), a bartender came out and intentionally tried to shame her for not tipping more by making two very snarky comments to embarrass her in front of everyone. A different person in our group spoke to the manager about this and the bartender came out and pretended to apologize, while continuing to tell our VP that she didn't tip enough "because we busted our a**es for you guys". At a brewery where the only things you serve are beer on tap and hard seltzer in a can, and every patron is responsible for going up to the bar and getting their own drinks. You don't have to mix drinks or serve food (or ice) or bring drinks out to the table... 20% seems fair for pouring beers and nothing else. The reason I gave 2 stars instead of 1 is the manager (owner?) did really try to make it right after the non-apology, and offered gift cards and free drinks cards, which was appreciated (and they were given to the person who chose this place and left before the rudeness). I honestly don't think any of us who were there when it happened would ever go back.

We visited four breweries including this one, and this was by far the best brewery and had some pretty good beers. I really didn't have a favorite beer, but I could have sat and drank for several hours here. The place was air conditioned and very roomy. It had clean restrooms and outdoor seating for cooler weather. The people working there were super nice and very knowledgeable about all their beers. It has ample parking, but it could use some work (unpaved). Just an FYI: The brewery is not visible from the street, you have to go around a bigger building to get to it.

Been going here regularly. Notice numerous times dogs inside, dogs outside. The website says Dogs Welcome. After our experience today that statement needs to be updated!!!! After entering the Tap Room I found a sit with my leashed Border Collie and waiting for my husband to order our beers. I was quickly approached by a lady stating that dog are not allowed in the building. I stated we have seen numerous dog in the building numerous times and sorry no appearances of "service dog" were present. The lady then stated that she was sorry, blah, blah, blah. It was difficult to get the staff to follow rules, blah, blah, I said I am all rules and regulations but consistency is the key. We canceled our beers and left. There were maybe 25 people in the entire place. I immediately looked at the website and sure enough it states Dogs Welcome. NOT only outside. Update the website or be consistent!!!!!!!

Always a great experience, whether it is just for a few beers with my wife or a few friends, or to enjoy some live music. The space has just the right feel and all of the staff are fun and easy going. The outside space and the food truck selection is nice also. This place is a hit with me!

Awesome new brewery in town! I've been a longtime fan of Dale's Pale Ale and I'm looking forward to sampling their seasonal beers at this location. On this past weekend's visit we did the sampler (4 beers, $7), plus shared a pint of the Pinner IPA ($5 for the pint, vs. $3 for a 4 oz sample). The Pinner has nice grassy notes and is smooth drinking. The Yella Pils is surprisingly good for a Pilsner, as it has some interesting character to it. I'd pass on the Beerito but I'm not a fan of lagers. Their signature IPA is a fine example of what you expect from an IPA. The venue is spacious inside with plenty of seating, both at the long bar and at tables, and there is additional seating on their patio. Looks like they have an cool stage set-up with plans for live music; love the use of speakers as decor. They didn't have any food available during our visit, but there are food trucks that come in periodically.

Definitely need to have maps on your phone to find this place as it is definitely hidden, but worth getting to. Ambiance: It is a pretty large open bar with live music most of the time and a friendly staff with a large bar to help you find the beer of your choice. Drinks: I have never been a huge Oskar Blues fan, but I can say that there is a good selection of their beer and one that will suffice for what you are looking for. If you are around this area, i would check them out. Just keep in mind there are a lot of really good breweries super close around this area so pretty stiff competition.

After living in Colorado for four years, Dale's Pale Ale has become a routine part of my diet. So after moving to Austin, you already know I have to check out Oskar Blues here. Not only are the beers amazing, but the venue is quite spectacular itself.

Had so much fun celebrating a birthday here! We wanted to stay somewhere outside due to omicron, and this place was perfect. Plenty of space, and they have heaters. Also plenty of parking spots. And also the employees are just so nice. A woman who must be the manager gave the birthday boy some surprise gifts, and our bartender Scott patiently helped us explore their beer options, which were great btw. Lovely afternoon here!

Love this place! My only 'complaint' if you can even call it that is they don't have a fenced in playground. Most of the breweries coming up are realizing that fenced in playground help bring in us family people who can't afford sitters all the time. Lol.

This was such a nice little hidden gem. The beer was great, the venue was awesome, and there was a food truck. Great indoor area with a stage set up for a live band and huge outdoor area with an awning. There is also tons of parking. My only complaint is that the signage to find this place is hidden and hard to find. If I wasn't following someone who knew where they were going, I would not have found it even with the GPS.

Definitely the best Taproom out of the surrounding breweries in Austin. The hang out space is massive and air conditioned. There's a huge deck outside with plenty of benches to bring a big group to enjoy as well. Service has been great every time we've been here and the beer selection is awesome. Try the Hotbox Coffee IPA, Dale's Pale Ale, of if you're feeling bold, get you the 10 Fiddy. They have live music here during the weekends and a food truck from Tuesday-Saturday. Definitely check this place out!

Mmmm. Once you find the place, which after dark, in an industrial park seems so eery, an maybe more signage and lights. A big airy open space, it was great and the beer and service was great. Contrary to the outside, the lighting inside is harsh and fluorescent, like you're hanging out in the VFW.

Very clean facility with great beers on tap. They even co-host other breweries on tap. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Kid and Pet friendly as well.

Huge and awesome space/layout. Plenty of seating inside and outside. Pretty perfect to chill or catch whatever is going on inside. Service is meh, beer is good but lacks variety. This certainly is not the place that has a "standout" beer menu. It is all pretty standard IPAs, Stouts, etc. You can get your beers in 4 oz, 10 oz, and 16oz which was great for me because a 10 oz is just the perfect amount for me. Each beer is also poured into it's specific cup, I like that attention to detail. I would come again more for the vibe and environment, then beer second.

Great spot- live music, lots of seating options, food truck. I only tried two of their beers and they were pretty good but I would like to go back and try the others!
