Highlights
  • Beerburg Brewing - Featuring ingredients foraged from their land, these brews are often limited in nature, making each one special and truly one-of-a-kind. Beerburg is a place where all are welcome; whether you’re visiting for a post-work beer, hanging with four legged friends, or enjoying time outside with the family.
    Taqueria La Violeta, much like Beerburg, draws from the land with sustainable and ethical practices in mind. Authentic and inspired, many of the recipes stem from Ricardo’s grandmother, who ran the kitchen at the family restaurant for over 40 years and informed his approach to cooking.
    Authentic, sustainable, and ethically sourced, if they can make a dish in-house from scratch, they will. At the end of the day, each dish, from the salsas to the ice cream is intended to be enjoyed alongside the beer.

Such a BLAST - This tour was a BLAST!! It was really helpful to have someone responsible for the driving and guiding our group along the way. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable, light hearted, and kept everyone safe. I absolutely would recommend this tour! Don’t forget to bring some drinks and water for the drive! Thanks for keeping Austin weird!

We had a great day! - Our tour guide Jax was very nice. The sprinter van was clean. The places we went were fun. Our driver was nice enough to stop on the way back for a bathroom break

This tour was great. Thanks Ike! - My wife and I enjoyed a half day of hill country beers and spirits hosted by the incredible Ike. We took a 30 minute ride in a comfortable van out of the city to Dripping Springs where we visited Fitzhugh Brewing, Treaty Oak Distillery, and Family Business Beer Company, all the while making conversation with other riders by virtue of Ike finding out things about each of us and connecting us together. A couple of the places had food to order, but we just stuck to the drinks. Each place had lots of space and some tasty options, though not a ton of choices. It was a fun way to spend 4.5 hours in comfort with some fun folks imbibing outside of Austin. Definitely a great way to spend a Saturday afternoon.

Nice day, great guide! - Jax was a great guide and driver, and the three stops were all enjoyable. Loved the distillery especially. The Fitzhugh brewery was least favorite of the three, but only because a private event took all the indoor tables and it was a little cold and damp sitting outside. Other than that it was an enjoyable day and would definitely recommend any tour with Jax.
