August 3, 2023We know the crisp coolness of fall is here (well maybe). A cool drink always sounds good, and if you’re in Austin, you want to keep it local. One of the most frequent questions we get is “what are the best breweries near me?” -here are our favorite Austin breweries to catch a sip at.
The Austin Beer Garden Brewing Co.
Located along with South Lamar and West Oltorf St., you’ll find The Austin Beer Garden Brewing Co. Enjoy signature and seasonal beer, wine, cider, and food. You can also catch a live music show by going online and checking out the events. Plus, through their “Hell Yes Project,” a portion of yearly profits are donated to causes and volunteers organize to help at places like the Central Texas Food Bank and Barton Springs Pool.
St. Elmo Brewing Company
Not too far from the St. Edwards University campus, you’ll find another Austin favorite. St. Elmo Brewing Company “loves all styles of beer and people,” and if drinking at a public place isn’t your thing, then you’re in luck. Drinks can be purchased to-go!
