    This OG brewery is the bees knees. Situated on a large parcel of land (165 farmland acres to be exact). They've got an events hall, goats, a grotto, an inn (cabins on property for rent), playground for kids, and tons and tons of seating. Family-friendly and dog-friendly. They stress all dogs be leashed and have multiple signs advising this. Too bad a fellow patron ignored the rules with his off-leash dog who decided to wander over to us. After me telling him several times to leash his dog, his wife finally did it. I mean come on. I'm not going to let one bad apple ruin the review. It's not the fault of the brewery. This is such a cool, rustic, idyllic setting. They get extremely busy on the weekends but staff are fast and friendly with getting pour orders up. More than ample seating available. There's just so much available. Even with a lot of people in attendance, the amount of land allows for quieter areas should you choose so. The open fields have trees for shading as well. A couple of bathrooms across the property make it so you don't have to walk far from wherever you're located. I personally love the vintage Airstream converted to a bathroom. Well two actually, the Airstream has a men's and women's room. The covered patios are also large and have a dance hall vibe. Live music and deejays perform from under the covered patios. Food truck onsite (their own) & pizzas are made onsite too. The food looked really good though we didn't try any. We shared two pours (2-half pours) that were amazing. One was a sour which I don't normally like. This one, I liked. The table beer was perfectly refreshing on a hot summer day. Also had a hibiscus mint iced tea=yum. The beers are so special. Like the best of the best in craft beer world. Beers are made with water from their well and native wild yeast. The grains are locally sourced and certified organic. Other ingredients like fruit, herbs, etc. all come from Hill Country. You can absolutely taste the difference. Fantastic products and visit. Note: Because it's in the country and off the beaten path, the roads and parking lots aren't the best. Dusty with lots of rocks and deep holes. Be careful not to drive more than 5 mph.

    AWESOME PLACE! My husband and I have been wanting to come out here for years, and we finally made it with dog and toddler in-hand. This place is so cool! Quiet countryside with plenty of space to really space out- my favorite! There's a kids playground area, tables in a field, tables in the beer garden under the shade of trees, and tables "inside" a long barn that has live music and TVs (and heaters). The whole place is dog friendly and just friendly. There is a goat barn which you can do a walk with them, but no one seemed to be doing it on the day we came. It's a paradise whether you have kids, dogs, or not. 50/50 shade for the summers but on beautiful days it's the perfect setting! Now the beer- amazing!! All of it! The IPAs really hone in on the flavors and not the bite. I would say they're beautiful IPAs- they do it right. We will definitely suggest this place to all of our friends and family and plan to come back!

    From the moment I got here, there was one word that came to mind- idyllic. It's the only way to describe a place that perfectly embodies the Hill Country of Texas and one place I will put in my top 10 for breweries. Beer- I had the Sasha (named after the house dog) which is a Hazy IPA and delicious. I also tried their Pilsner which was good Goat Walk- an absolute must while here (and it's available). What better way to view the sunset walking around with 73 goats, a beer in hand while you learn about this amazing property. Food- I dropped the ball and didn't order any but it looked amazing. (Just another reason to come back) This place was on my national bucket list for a reason and I'm so glad it lived up to my hype :)

    We stopped here on our way to Fredericksburg around 3pm, and the weather was absolutely perfect. The place sits on a huge lot with plenty of space to walk around, relax, and enjoy the scenery. All of the seating is outdoors, which made it even better for the beautiful weekend we were having. You can order at the counter or scan a QR code at your table to order and pay, then just wait for your name to be called. We ordered a couple of pints and some pizzas to share. The wood-fired pizza was honestly amazing. We tried the Pekel pizza, which has pickles on it. It sounds strange but just trust it!!! We also got a classic pepperoni that was fire! My boyfriends a fit king and ordered a salad and he really enjoyed that as well. Great beer, great pizza, and a beautiful location. Definitely worth the stop.

    We got here around 2 o'clock on a Monday afternoon and found it to be a little quiet. They have a lot of parking available. It is off of the beaten Path so it is dirt road. They are located on a huge farm so there's tons of open field for kids to run around and play they also have a little play area for the kids as well. There's plenty of seats so if you have a large group, definitely a great location to bring them to. They do have a good selection of beers as well as ciders. They also have a kitchen so you can order food as well and while we didn't order food, everything that came out smelled really good. My husband got the black metal which is a dark lager and he really enjoyed it. I tried two of the ciders and both of them were delicious.

    I think the trick to going anywhere where it might get busy is to go on a Monday or Tuesday. On our way back from a trip to Fredericksburg, we stopped at Jester King and loved it! We were able to walk around while we waited for our pizza to be finished. All of the staff we encountered were very nice and accommodating. It was such a nice place to enjoy a great beer and great pizza.

    We're currently dining at Jester King Brewery, and so far, it's making a great first impression. The space is huge -- tons of room to spread out, with ample parking right out front. It's also very dog-friendly, which is a big plus for us. We brought three dogs with us. There are lots of seating options scattered throughout the grounds, all covered, so you can comfortably enjoy the outdoors without baking in the sun. The menu is impressive and diverse. Between the wood-fired pizzas, food trucks, and an extensive drink selection, there's something for everyone. We spent a few hours on the lake earlier today and decided to finally make the trip out here, since Jester King is a bit out of the way from where we live in Austin. It ended up being the perfect time to visit. I'll update this review once we've had a chance to try the food and drinks -- but so far, the vibes are on point.

    If by some miracle I'm able to find the energy to drive 30-45 minutes outside of Austin, I will make sure I got to Jester King. This is such a great and amazing place to take people for the first time. Being out in the sticks, it's a very immersive experience and you get to see all the goats on the farm. If you want a country ranch vibe,this is the place to go. The property is so big and there's so much to see and explore while you wait for your food to be ready. And now on to the food. Everything here is amazing. They are masters of pizza. Every single one is made with care and ingenuity. The different toppings and sauces are all so good and you can taste how fresh the crust is since they cook it in a classic pizza oven. Their house hot honey is also an amazing addition to any dish.

    Jester King Brewery is a place where dreams are made of. Delicious beers and goats like absolutely yes! The location is gorgeous, truly beautiful Texas country side. I tried the satyr beer which was your regular ole light Pilsner and their auguste cerise cider. Both were delicious. This place has a lot of charm.

    Unique beers, great pizza, and Hill Country vibes -- a must-visit Austin experience Jester King is more than just a brewery -- it's a destination. Located about 30 minutes outside downtown Austin, it's set on a beautiful stretch of Hill Country land with picnic tables, goat pastures, trails, and lots of open space to roam. It's super family- and dog-friendly, and the whole place has a relaxed, rustic charm. The beer is truly one-of-a-kind. They specialize in wild ales, farmhouse styles, and fruit-forward sours. If you like funky, complex brews, you'll be in heaven. Atrial Rubicite and Le Petit Prince are standouts. If you're new to their lineup, the staff is happy to offer suggestions or samples. Food comes from Stanley's Farmhouse Pizza on-site -- wood-fired, thin crust, and packed with flavor. We had the sausage and mushroom pizza and it paired perfectly with the saison I was drinking. Service was friendly and laid-back. It's mostly counter service, and everything feels casual and welcoming. There's also a bottle shop if you want to take something special home. Pro tip: Go earlier in the day if you want to avoid lines or snag limited-release bottles. It can get busy on weekends, especially during nice weather. Whether you're a beer nerd, nature lover, or just want to chill outside with a pizza and a pint, Jester King is well worth the trip.

    Jester King Brewery in Austin Texas was such a vibe! They had live music, great beer (of course!), and even animals roaming around the farm setting was so cute. There were plenty of seats to relax and take it all in. We ordered the supreme pizza with their focaccia bread and wow, everything tasted so fresh. The prices were reasonable and they had a variety of beer, wine and cider. I really loved the grafter blanc cider I ended up buying a bottle to go! Perfect spot to hang out, enjoy good food, and soak up the atmosphere. Highly recommend! If I'm ever in Austin I would definitely visit

    Ask the Community - Jester King Brewery

    Do you have gluten free beer?

    This is from their web site. We always offer a selection of gluten-free wines and ciders. If you have any further questions or concerns, please feel free to email us at restaurant@jesterkingbrewery.com.

    Are the pizzas intended to be one per person, or shared? We're pre-ordering and it's our first time here.

    Haha, depends on how hungry you are! I'd say they are definitely shareable as a small meal between two people, or you may have a slice or two leftover if want to take one on alone. We usually get a pizza each so we can try different flavor… 

    What is the process for getting ID'd/checking in currently? Some posts say check-in is required, but under FAQ's it says checking in is not required.

    Yes they check ID and give you a wristband so you don't have to show ID every time. Not seeing the issue unless your trying to drink underage...

    Is place kid friendly?

    Yes!

    What soap do they use in their restroom? I love how it smells lol

    Hi Liz, we use Meyers hand soap, basil scent. Cheers!

    I haven't been since Stanley's closed. Is the concept still the same with the old Stanley's serving pizza and beer with large pavilion seating? Still order in same location?

    From the consumer protective, the main changes are: - larger menu variety (objective) - food not as… 

    Is this place dog friendly?

    Yes! I saw several dogs there.

    Do y'all have beer flights?

    Yes you can create your own flights out of any of their beers

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

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.

    Pinthouse Brewing was a brewery Steve and I went to while on our vacation to Austin a few months…read moreago. 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.
