Austin


Want a place to meet your friends for beer and conversation? Then settle in at a picnic table inside or out at this convivial brewery and beer garden that's also known for its great food. The boar, tasso and spinach pizza? Oh yes, you do want a slice of this thin-crusted specialty pie ($4). Live music Tuesday and Wednesday, and Friday through Sunday.

Got Fido? He's welcome to join you.
