You get to know the servers, meet some talented musicians, dance the night away, drink tasty beer, eat delicious pizza, and pet the cutest ABGB ambassador, Mago. Kim, the brewer is all around a wonderful person who makes the best beer around. If you're in for just one night, try the superliner and the beegining. The Superliner is a zangy IPA, and the Beegining won the 2026 World Beer Cup Gold. Go straight for the waygu and order some pints, you cannot go wrong.

512 Brewing Company was another Austin based brewery that we hit up and had a few beers from during…read moreour trip here. We had two different beers from this brewery. Both were solid and good. Starting on the lighter side of the beer spectrum from here we had the (512) Beer: 30 which is an American Light Lager. In the flavor profile for this beer you can find a natural sweetness, a crisp and clean presence as well. The beer was light bodied and very easy to drink more than one of! Moving to darker beer territory and the one that I liked maybe just a little bit better (but it was neck and neck) was the (512) Pecan Porter. This was a fun porter as it was on the nutty side of things as the name indicates. All the flavors blended in very nicely. Flavor features in this beer to find is sweetness, a coffee presence and of course the pecan flavor. The beer is nice and smooth and creamy in body. Two good beers from two different beer types made this beer exploration a little bit more well rounded.

I entered from the back of the brewery and proceeded to the bar to order a beer. The vibe inside the brewery is high ceilings, exposed bricks, modern, and industrial aesthetic. I ordered the block party west coast double ipa (Block Party is a Double West Coast IPA dry-hopped with Citra, Centennial, and HBC 638, brewed in collaboration with their neighbors at Vacancy Brewing for their annual all-day Block Party). The beer was hoppy and smooth. There is also WiFi available if you need to logon to check emails/take calls. I highly recommend this brewery if you are in the area.

In the attached picture from left to right I rank the sake from bad to less bad. The one of the right was bearable but I still would not buy it alone. Perhaps the japanese sakes would have tasted better? We also decided not to get the sushi hand rolls to try and make the drinks more bearable as they did not have much variety or sounded good. I was also not a fan of the interior. Kind of reminded me of an old chinese buffet with those large stick chairs and tables. The staff here were friendly, but nothing else really redeemed here

Popped in there after enjoying some drinks at one of the places next door…read more I hate to admit that this was rather underwhelming. We got Texas Sake tasting to start with and this is where we finished. The flight looked very different from other people's reviews here and tasted VERY fishy. The yellow-ish one was probably the most bearable one but it still was not good at all. To be very honest, I really had to push myself to take more than one sip of each. If I had nothing to compare with, I would probably refrain from being this harsh, but I have had cheap and expensive sake and I have never tasted anything this bad... We looked at the hand roll options and we didn't find anything we would be interested in. The interior felt like it was a bingo room with a couple of Japan inspired booths that looked a little bit out of place compared to the rest of the floor. Gave one star for nice staff and a cool fish mural.

We didn't even realize that Pinthouse Brewing had a sourdough crust (apparently not all locations…read moredo), so that was such a fun surprise. The sourdough pizza was really good--almost like a focaccia/Detroit-style hybrid, but with the sauce layered on the bottom. Super flavorful, crispy edges, soft inside... honestly just hit. Also--my husband was way too excited (in the best way) to see boiled peanuts on the menu, so of course we had to start there. Great call. We'll definitely be back.

The building is quite large and inside is cool as the seating is quite spacious and a large number of people can enjoy food and drink at once. Definitely not a tiny, small placed brewery...but it's true... everything is bigger in Texas! When we were at Pinthouse I spotted a Mexican Lager which is a type of lager I love and especially in warm weather... a perfect summer beer for me! The name of the beer was Burro's Breakfast. In the flavor profile of this beer you will find a naturally sweet corn flavor, some maltiness along with a tart and dry finish. The beer is light bodied like most lagers of this type and smooth in body. In addition to having a beer we also decided to get some lunch. So we got a chicken sandwich a piece along with coleslaw and had a very nice lunch. Coming to Pinthouse Brewing proved to be a good stop as we made a pretty extensive tour of the breweries in Austin.

Flavor highlights with this beer are grainy, crispness and a bit funky. The beer is very easy to drink due to this nice, mellow flavor profile and is light bodied which makes this beer highly enjoyable and appropriate while enjoying the Texas warmth.
