Twisted X Brewing Company was yet another of many breweries we tried out when we were in Austin and the neighboring area on a recent trip. We got one of their flagship beers, the McConauhaze which was a New England style IPA. It's obviously referencing Matthew McConaughey who went to college in Austin (but is originally from the San Antonio area). Lots of Austin folks make references to the actor. In the flavor profile for this beer it is juicy, citrus which contributes to a strong overall flavor but is yet smooth with this hazy. It's a nice solid beer overall. The location for this brewery is great, large place and it's in Hill Country. read more

They were so friendly here today. Apparently now that they have food trucks they prefer customers don't bring outside food, but I was the only customer there at Noon on Saturday and the bartender was fine with me bringing a pizza to eat outside while drinking beers. I had some of the seasonal beers cause you can get all the others at every bar in Austin pretty much, [[HIGHLIGHT]]The outside is very comfortable with picnic tables, fire pits, relaxing lawn chairs, etc.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]They had games and the areas are covered for shade.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

The bartender Micah was great to talk with, very informative and personable. We didn't order any grub, but I think they had nachos on the menu. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The joint had typical old and current craft brew memorabilia laced on the walks, cool outdoor heated & screened in patio, out of sight carved tree in back, and a nice little lounge area with cornhole.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Tried their blonde beer called Gulf Kolsch, it was very good, but my favorite go to is the McConawhaze ipa., with its cloudy appearance and multi-fruit and hoppy flavors.

We come to Twisted X Brewing at least once a year when we are out in the hill country area for Barks 4 Beers. They always have new beers on tap (this time was a jalepeno lager) which was good but not really are style. Their most popular beer and now one of Austin's biggest and best seller brew is the Mcconauhaze. That beer is an amazing hazy ipa that is comparable to Pint House Brewings Electric Jelly Fish. Don't miss out on this brewery if you are in the area and looking for some good tasty ones! read more

Decent selection with okay seating. During our trip, a HUGE party bus arrived and what was a chill Saturday afternoon seemingly erupted into chaos. This really jaded my review and brought it down from 4 to 3 stars. I can't really blame the servers for that experience but it would have been helpful if the large group could have been directed a bit more to allow others space to order. The beer itself is decent, as I tried the Bock on tap. They have some snacks to much on though the food was disappointing. We got the guac which was literally squeezed out of a bag...not the most appetizing. read more

This place has a fun atmosphere with a large connect 4 and other games for you to play while you are visiting. They have a variety of beer choices, where some are very different than other places. You can try a flight, but each one cost a different amount or just have a pint. They will also give you a sample to try if you are torn between a few. I did a sample of Fuego, Austin Lager, and Salty Chihuahua. I also had a pint of their lager. The Fuego was a Jalapeno Pils that had just the right amount of heat to it to taste the jalapeno. It was rather good, but I could not do more than a flight size or sample size. The Salty Chihuahua was a sea-salt and lime flavored lager. It was good, but like the Fuego, only in small portions for this gal. read more

Just a terrific place for a drink with friends. Staff is friendly and super helpful suggesting the different beers they have on tap. Enjoyed the flight of beers and the Lobster Roll from the food truck on site. read more

Twisted X Brewing Company - 5 beer samples and one Haberno Lime East Side Cider. All were fantastic. - Food Trucks Near Me - Dripping Springs, Texas

First time here, indoor and outdoor seating, walk up service, food truck with pizza. Beverage selection: beer, soft drinks and some drink creations they make from their beers. Beer selection was over a dozen, about half were IPAs. No porters, no stouts, especially for this time of year. Overall sampling of selections was nothing to rave about, very little body and no depth in flavor. Bar staff was polite and busing the entire place. Unisex bathrooms need regular attention, bar staff should not have to do that too. Overall impression: we won't drive to Dripping for Twisted X as a destination in the future. read more

Nice place with good brews. We sat outside on a cool day and there was no shade so I burned my face and had no idea until I got home. An umbrella would have been nice. read more

I think this place is mainly for the atmosphere. My husband and I stopped by on our random "pub crawl" of the Hill Country. I can't say I had had Twisted X beer before (or maybe I have and it wasn't memorable). The location is nice and quiet, with a ton of outdoor seating. However, the sewage smell was overwhelming! The inside was large and open but was crowded and was so loud. I don't know- I was impressed with the building, but not the beer, and definitely not the smell. read more

Nice place, but I couldn't find a beer I fell in love with here. Give it a try, see if it's for you; but I'd try the other local places first. read more

One of my favorite hill country breweries for both their beer and vibe. On the Sunday that we visited it was too darn hot to enjoy their patio even with their Big Ass Fan. Inside was cool and comfy as we ordered a couple of their taproom only specialty brews and enjoyed the live music. A shoutout to the guitar player who finished his set with a great Spanish guitar-led song. So bring the mutt and your kiddos (there is plenty of room for both them to run around outside) and enjoy a few of their wonderful craft beers. Be sure to check out their website for taproom only beers and new releases! read more

Just 11 miles from Jester King, sits another awesome brewery, Twisted X. Good brewery ambience with both indoor and outdoor seating. A food truck offering tacos and other Mexican snacks is parked on the premises. Beer offerings are good with a varied selection. Available on the day we visited, was chupaHOPra IPA, Mango IPA, Oatmeal Stout, Zwickle, Pilsner, Lager, Pale Ale and a few guest beers. Flights available, $2 a taster for a very generous pour. Good flavor profiles to the ones we sampled. 2 bathrooms available. Out of toilet paper and not very clean on the day we were there. Dogs are welcome, however, the outside seating area isn't huge. Cornhole outside and the COOLEST carved tree you have ever seen! Worth a stop and a beer just to appreciate the giant gargoyle and sombrero-wearing iguana. read more

Delightful beer, lovely setting. Live music on a Saturday afternoon. Good food truck. Excellent overall experience. And we love that they support Divine Canines through Barks for Beers! read more

Visited for the first time this past Saturday. There as a good crowd, busy but not packed, and we had no problem grabbing two seats. It's not a huge place, but they have tables and chairs outside, an outdoor patio section and then some indoor. You can also sit at the bar. They had live music while we were there (a single guy and a guitar which was pleasant and not overwhelming, and there is a food truck on site. Plenty of parking as well. We told the girl behind the bar it was our first time, and she did a great job of talking about the beers. I'm not an IPA fan so she recommended the German lager, which I found to be delicious. My friend got the mango IPA which he also liked a lot. And a good price at $5 per glass. They have tours twice a day but we missed it as well as merch for sale. All in all, I found it to be a great place to hang out on a Saturday afternoon and it's in close proximity to Salt Lick and other wineries/breweries. Definitely make it part of the list to stop at! read more

Not sure why we hadn't come out before but it was a nice setting. We enjoyed sitting under the big ass fans on the patio. They had duo playing from 2 to 6pm but inside was a tad too loud. High tables inside & picnic tables outside. Dogs are allowed. They have some Doug Moreland chainsaw art in a dead tree and then inside some small tables. They also have a photo booth. TVs inside and out that where showing the end of the golf tournament. A perfect day for my father (beer and golf). My husband and father enjoyed what they had. I wish they had something for non beer drinkers beside soda and water but that is the risk I run not drinking beer. Food truck on site or chips and salsa at the bar. Easy to park. read more

A Hoppy Walk in Dripping Springs Let me paint you a picture. Imagine, if you will, a quaint little hamlet nestled in the heart of Texas, Dripping Springs. Now, forget everything you thought you knew about breweries, because this place is about to change everything. When you step into the brewery, it's as if you're stepping back into a simpler time. A time when beer wasn't just an alcoholic beverage, it was a way of life. The atmosphere is casual, relaxing, and inviting - like an old favorite pair of jeans that somehow still fit after Thanksgiving dinner. The friendly staff is as warm as a Texas summer, ready with a cold pint and a hearty "howdy". And let's not forget about the beer. Oh, the beer. It's like a symphony of hops and malt playing a beautiful ballad on your taste buds. Now, let's talk about the star of the show, the McCoughnahaze (sp?). With its rich, hoppy goodness and the smooth, hazy finish, it's like drinking a tall glass of "this is why I love beer". The brewery is also filled with wooden accents and outdoor seating that whispers sweet nothings about 'let's just chill' and play a crazy game of corn hole. In conclusion, if you're a beer lover, a fun lover, or just a lover in general, this brewery in Dripping Springs is the place to be. So definitely sidle on down, kick back, relax, and enjoy a brew or two. Oh, and remember, always drink responsibly. Because the only thing better than enjoying a good beer, is being able to remember how good it was the next morning. Truth. read more

We have been coming here for years. Josh and Jen are incredibly personable and attentive and the beer is great. Love the live music and the special events. Great to have a go-to spot that works for families and adults! read more

Found a new fav to haunt! Seriously! Twisted X Brewing Company is yet another great spot on the Texas Hill Country Beer Trail! The décor is simplistic and inviting, rustic Mexican meets shabby chic. The re-purposed wood ceiling is a standout, the tiny cacti on every table on top of Mexican woven blankets, and the great staff all add to the charm. TXBC specializes in Tex Mex Beer™. From standout lagers to more innovative flavor combos, the brews are indeed tasty and interesting. They use as many local ingredients as possible, making this local craft brew truly "local." IMHO a flight is a great way to start, particularly on your first visit. Can choose up to six (go all the way!) 5 oz. pours, served up in a cute and functional branded wooden board. Depending on the beer, each one ranges in price from $2-3, so a complete flight will cost about $12-15. A little bit different approach than most "flights;" however, I feel like it gives you more choices. Some standout beers: The Premium Lager is TXBC staple beer, and as they recommend, is very good in a Michelada! The hubster has been on an IPA kick for quick a while now and thoroughly enjoyed the Chupahopra - very hoppy finish. And no trip to TXBC would be complete without sampling the Fuego (aka Jalepeno Pilsner). It's certainly fits right in with the Tex-Mex approach, and has just the slightest kick of heat at the end. The first thing that popped in my head was "THIS is the next beer I'm putting in my chili." Perfect "cooking" beer. Overall: When you're out on the "Trail" or just in Dripping Springs any given day of the week, stop in and sip on one or two. I don't think you'll regret it. Arriba, abajo, adentro! Cheers! TIPS: *Unlike many "breweries," the Tasting Rom at TXBC is open 7 days a week. * TXBC reads more barlike type of brewery with TV s and a food truck (Thur, Fri, &Sat). Great place to spend some time, and even catch a game. Huge plus! *They do have brewery tours - free! M-F @4pm, Sat @1,3,5pm, Sun@1,3pm. *Be sure to check out the large carved tree outside. Too cool; makes for some great photo opps. *Super dog friendly outdoor area, complete with "poo" station so do your doodie...er, um..duty when your fur baby does his/hers please. read more

We had such a great time at Twisted X. Loved it so much. Starting off the drive out there is beautiful. I love getting out to dripping springs and getting out of the city. The leaves are changing and it's just a wonderful drive through hill country We got there and were greeted with friendly faces. We got a few beers then went on a tour. Very cool behind the scenes look of how they do everything in house! Came back and told the bar manager we trusted him to put together a flight for us. And he delivered. All the beers were delicious. We very much so enjoyed our time there! We also enjoyed that there is a food truck serving delicious pizzas! Daniele' did great!! read more

Having to downgrade this place. Last time I went their offerings were fairly pedestrian. Still can't get growlers or crowlers of stuff that doen't get canned. I understand state law makes it difficult, but in the land of the "LLC" their should be a way to have a production line AND a tasting area that can sell crowlers. Still love the Fuego but they didnt have it last time. Merchandise looks pretty sparse compared to when they first opened. They used to have some quality tees and hats ( of which I have a few) but now there virtually nothing there. Austin has too many other great breweries to drink at rather than wasting time and a drive to Driftwood for what seems is a declining business. read more

I took my friends who were visiting for the weekend here for some drinks. This was the first time I had gone to this brewery and I was extremely impressed.

I had been meaning to check this place out for a while. I have been a big fan of their Chupahopra for quite some time and finally made the pilgrimage. The brewery has nice curbside appeal. The structure is nicely done and their is a little area for the doggies. Of note, dogs are also allowed in the tasting room. There is also a food truck there. The inside is your typical tasting room with an industrial look. It is nicely done. The bartenders are good. The prices are right. I would recommend the flight so you can try ones. I really think they do a good job on the IPAs. Their beers are quite good. But of all of them, i favor the Chupahopra! read more

Impressive bartender on 3/5/24 who greeted us with enthusiasm as soon as we walked up. He knew his product and offered suggestions when they were out of what my husband ordered. The atmosphere was pleasant and people seemed relaxed to spend their time there. We will return with friends! read more

On a recent vacation to Austin, my boyfriend and I essentially ate and drank our way across the city, visiting countless restaurants, food trucks and breweries. Of all the breweries we visited, this one was my boyfriend's favorite. ;) (They were my second fave. My favorite goes to Last Stand.) I liked their tap room and beautiful landscape/setting in Dripping Springs. Beer selection was fairly hop heavy, hence my boyfriend's love of the place. I found one or two I really liked too. Prickly Pear was my go-to. I would have loved a few darker -- brown, porter, stout -- choices in the winter when we visited. We took a few jars of their yummy salsa home with us. read more
