Atrial is usually a June/July release. Your only bet is to trade for one.

Use the search function to find out which bars/breweries to go to.

 

atrial comes out whenever they have the fruit for it.

check out austin beerworks, hops and grain, whip-in, and 512.

 

Pinthouse pizza - great selection of their own beers and some guest taps, and great pizza.

 

I'd definitely check out at Adelbert's if you go to Austin Beerworks since they're a few minutes drive from each other.

 

You can't go to Austin and not have the best brew made in Texas! Don't forget to check out Live Oak and drink gallons of their Hefe.

 

I'm going in early April. so stoked. Can't wait to try Live Oak

 

Best hefe in the world. Pilz is amazing as well.

 

In the world eh? That's a big claim mate!

True, but the only beer higher on this site with more than 1000 reviews is Weihenstephaner, and I feel like Live Oak is much better. But I'm biased.

 

I will cosign on this claim, and I have only lived in TX for 5.5 years to defeat claims of homerism.

 

Haha - America I think could be doable - I've heard so many good things. But the world (i.e. thinking about German beers beyond Weihenstephaner)? That's a big call. Well - less than a month till I find out..

 

Y'all done been to Germany, I take it?

 

Best in America beyond the shadow of a doubt. I had a bunch of beers in Germany, but that was 16 years ago when I was 17. Maybe my frame of reference is skewed.

I'll just say I can't imagine there exists a better hefe.

 

Pilz is not one of my fave styles, but theirs is pretty dang good!

 

Draught House is well worth going as well and Hops & Grain is always a fun time!
