My wife has a work convention is Austin next week. I'm going at the end of the week to check out the city. I'll be heading to Jester King on Saturday, although will have all day Friday to do what I want while she is at the convention. I'll be staying at the JW Marriott. Any suggestions for breweries or bottle shops in the area I should visit?
