    More ammo for that Crowler fight too.

    Please bring tons of BA Ten Fidy for the taproom!

    Well, at least that company that owns them ain't afraid to spend some coin.

    Hopefully that coin goes to fighting some beer laws in TX

    He is saying there are usually rumors before it happens. This one came out of nowhere.

    This is right across the street from 4th Tap (which can only do them well) and within a mile of Adels and Circle.

    North Austin is now Austin's brewery district.

    There's definitely a cluster of them up there. There are also several near 71/35 and I hear more are coming. It's nice to have options all over town.

    Outside of Jester King, what other breweries in Austin have national recognition with BA? I love Austin, simply one of my favorite cities, but have always thought it was a prime local for someone like OB. Homerun in my opinion as I simply don't know of any in the area I would travel to visit outside of JK.

    There's a lot of great breweries here, just not as well known as JK. Austin is becoming a serious beer town.

    Unfortunately, I'm not a wild/sour ale kind of guy, so Jester King is lost on me. Great to hear OB is coming. More fresh beer for me!
