I've never been there but Rahr and Sons is in Fort Worth, and even though I'm from Austin....I moved before I was 21! So....idunno! BUT i'm sure some folks can chime in.

Have a good trip!

+1 Uncle Billy's Brew & Que Rocks! :rockin:

$2 pints for AHA members all day, every day!

Come on by Rahr. We have free tastings on Saturdays. If you can't make it in on Sat, then drop by on Monday or Tuesday(sometimes Wednesdays) and I'll be there brewing a batch I'm sure.

What is AHA member, I live in Sa and I go to Austin alot, I would love to get 2$ pints everyday.

Dallas - Rahr

Austin - Uncle Billy's, Live Oak (their hefe is one of THE best), Real Ale, Independence, also stop by Gingerman and Draughthouse

soo, rahr and billy's it is. i would think one in each town would be enough. i could see my fam and friends getting a little pissed if we had to hit up 10 different brew pubs and breweries.

Right now Live Oak Hefe is on draft at the new Flying Saucer in Austin.

On Sundays they offer all Texas drafts for $2.75/pint.

Luckily for you (and very VERY unluckily for me), you couldn't find 10 different brew pubs and breweries to visit in the Dallas/Fort Worth area, so as far as N. Texas goes, Rahr is the only one (ugly pug is awesome), and there isn't **** in Arlington.

Edit: I would be surprised if there are 10 micro breweries in the entire state of Texas, people here really love their BMC.
Edit Again: I just looked it up, there are 8, almost all in S. Texas
Franconia Brewery
Independence Brewing Co.
Live Oak Brewing Co.
Rahr & Sons Brewing Co.
Real Ale Brewing Co.
Saint Arnold Brewing Co.
Southern Star Brewing Co.
Spoetzl Brewery

no trip to austin is complete without a trip to the draughthouse pub. some of the best brewpub beer in town.

if you want a tour guide while you're here, send me a pm. i'm more than happy to share some homebrew and show you around.

that invite goes out to anyone else who is already in austin too.
