Austin Breweries
Nomadic Beerworks Location: 3804 Woodbury Dr Suite A, Austin, TX 78704 Grand Opening: June 22nd, 2019 Recently I was in need of a hitch to be installed on my wife’s minivan. I decided to head over to U-Haul on Ben White to do that, and just before leaving noticed an article from Craft Beer Austin stating Nomadic Beerworks was having their soft opening. Having a couple hours to kill, I took the short walk over […]
This is a guest post by Brian Trivitt. With over 7400 breweries in operation (and new breweries opening up literally every day), it’s no surprise that the craft beer world is as competitive as ever.

Tastes great. Less filling – Is Craft Beer “Light” a good thing? It seems to be the latest rage in craft beer. Not New England IPAs, not putting the entire snack shelf from the corner store into a stout, but instead, light craft beer. Light beer got its start in the late 1960’s being invented by a biochemist PhD, working at Rheingold Brewery in New York. Through a series of hand offs, Miller Brewing Company acquired […]

12 Fox Beer Company: Grand Opening May 24-27, 2019 Location: 4700 W Fitzhugh Rd, Dripping Springs, TX 78620 On Sunday, I made my way to the soft opening of 12 Fox Beer Company, another brewery located off of Fitzhugh Rd (near Dripping Springs). The first thing I noticed was the decor and the outdoor beauty of their space. They had a large spacious patio that seemed quite welcoming (along with a friendly neighborhood brewery cat). […]

The main bit of news over the last week is that Texas is one step closer to allowing beer-to-go sales from breweries. The battle now will come from the senate, which “should” be easier to get past than the house. But, this is Texas, so no one really knows. That should happen in a week or two. This week’s TABC Label Approvals: K = Keg B = Large format bottle bb = 16oz format bottle […]
