If you are “keeping Austin weird,” you might as well keep Austin’s beer weird, too. And if you live in the tired land of Budweiser and Coors Light, we want you to know that there are some fine, tasty beers brewed right here in your own beloved city.
The luxury of locally brewed beer is a relatively new phenomenon. A few giant corporations were running all the domestic beers in the United States in the 1970s. Beer lovers had few options.
So some avid beer connoisseurs began to brew their own – forming the microbrewing revolution that slowly swept across the country. A beer renaissance was born.
Now you have copious choices: Ale or lager? Brown ale or pale ale? Or maybe a red or amber? Porter or stout? Pilsner or hefeweizen?
