    Just kinda meh. Limited parking. Bathrooms needed attention. Hot as hell inside. We went for the Barks for Beers event. They had a limited selection for your pour, so I had to pay an upcharge for a beer i actually wanted to drink. I mean, worth it for a decent brew, but just seems silly to me to limit your choices for an event that may possibly bring in more business for you down the road. I wish I liked this place better because it is super convenient to me. Maybe if I'm thirsty before an AFC match I'll pop in. Or if there is another fundraiser of sorts that I am supporting. But not a place I'll just recommend as a hang with my crew. I would like to check out Kramer's cocktails which is on the back of the building.

    Super cute lil spot! We came Friday night and had a couple of drinks and it's super chill!! The outside is very cute and painted! There is plenty of seating and a pizza truck - dough squad! They also serve margaritas / ranch waters and ciders for people who don't drink beer!! Also dog friendly!! Bathrooms are nice and clean too. Overall a really cute, relaxed spot to grab a drink and some pizza!

    This is a really cool spot to hang out near Q2 stadium. Plenty of seating for you and the family and a kid friendly spot. You will find a food truck or two in the back. They have several beers on tap including margaritas and a couple of other cocktails. I would just stick to beer the margarita wasn't very big and expensive. You will find TVs all over with them showing the games. This is a great spot to hang out for the night with friends or family.

    This was my first trip to hopsquad and I just got a growler filled this time. The beer I got was a hazy IPA and we love it so we intend go for a sit down soon. The service was excellent and the choice of beers was really good. The food trucks around look interesting. Looking forward to the next visit

    Great atmosphere and love their beer options. They make their beers in house. Also they have awesome bar tenders

    Friendly staff, great beer. There is a food truck onsite with pizza and a few other snacks. Cool atmosphere. Dogs welcome too.

    F1 watching party was fun. Great beer and great friend.

    What a fun place. The wide open indoor space is comfortable and with the garage doors open it was a perfect setting to watch the F1 televised race. The bartender was wonderful and gave some good ideas and helped understand the various brews. The beer was great! Parking tends to be a challenge but not impossible. We parked at a warehouse parking lot right next to the brewery.

    Hazy IPA's and the much admired Daisy flask.

    This is a very chill location, it wasn't very busy when we arrive and the bartender was friendly and knew the lyrics to every tune on the playlist. We had their Hazy IPA and it was very tasty. The beer will be bringing us back here. The place got busier and seems to be a hangout for small groups and meetings. Lots of room, parking is tight, but overall this is one of Austin's breweries that we would come back to. My wife had to have the flask that they were showing in the IG photo's, glad we stopped.

    Inside brewery by the bar. Pup-friendly says it all in this photo. Thank you!  @coreyd123 on insta.

    Beer was great. Forgot what I got. Some hazy IPA. Also got tacos from the tres B's truck outside and the wonderful woman surprisingly asked where I was and brought everything to our table inside. Been here a bunch before and met the owner when they first opened and super nice young curly-headed gentleman. I told him he won the lottery with the Q2 stadium opening. Told me the story of how he got in there just a couple months or so before site selection. He very subtly, silently, briefly - "raised the roof." As would I. Hopsquad is, to me, the best brewery in an area of great breweries. The design is top notch too. Open, evening light casting shapes and shadows over all the Satiny shiny bare concrete and modern geometric minimalism.

    This place is a vibe, and I'm here for it! Absolutely loved the open, industrial concept of the space, the various seating options, and the instragramable decor and murals. Also, really enjoyed the beer selection and the beers themselves! Happy to see a variety of different styles and some with some interesting adjuncts. It's always nice when breweries get creative! They have a great selection of games to keep you and your squad entertained and the beertender was chill and engaging. Definitely add this place to your ATX Brewery hitlist! Beers I had here: You Can All Go to Helles & I'll Go to Hopsquad 4.5% Pepito's Pepino Cucumber Basil Wit 5.7% Matador Watermelon Mint Fruit Beer 6.6% Doctor Montopolis Pilsner 5.1% Darth Schwarzbier 5% Pennybacker Hazy IPA 7.5% Patinador Solstice IPA 4.7%

    Just the ticket as our UK friends would say, a crackin' pint

    Finally stopped by to try them out. Only con was limited parking out front. This is zeroed out by the fact that the brewery very helpfully has the parking areas available around the corner listed right on their website! Very helpful in Austin traffic so you don't have to do the "circle the block" dance. The important stuff: very nice selection of beer styles, very roomy spaces in and out, and very dog buddy friendly. We don't currently have one, so being able to vicariously enjoy other folks dags is always a plus. Just had IPAs (this is our go-to beer), and could have stayed a lot longer if we had had the time. Very nice flavours.

    What I love about hopsquad is how dog friendly it is. The pups are allowed indoors! Much appreciated during the summer and rainy days. Tons of picnic style seating inside and outside. There's a projector which and other large tv inside. Nice spot to bring your laptop and work as well. Cons, the beer is just ok. Idk what it is, but not a big fan of their IPAs or creative ingredient combinations.

    Vin du Chateau, A Blonde Cosimo, Matador, Pepitos Pepino
    Jacqueline P.

    My favorite brewery so far in the Austin North brewing district. Had a flight with a friend and loved or at least liked every beer we had. We got the Pepitos Pepino (cucumber), Matador (watermelon), Blonde Cosimo (coffee), and Vin du Chateau (French). You could taste all of the namesake flavors in the beer real well. The Blonde Cosimo was incredible along with the Pepitos Pepino (so refreshing, almost like a seltzer and light beer combined). The Matador has a little bit of a strange aftertaste but I was just impressed that a beer could actually taste like watermelon. The Chateau was just a solid beer. Space is big and doesn't have AC but seems to have a bit better ventilation than some of the other warehouse breweries.

    I would love to take my husband here for Father's Day. But I wonder if this is a kid friendly environment? My daughter is 4 1/2.

    Before the shutdown, it definitely was as every time I stopped by it seemed like there were groups with kids in tow. Keep in mind that they are just slowly opening to the public now and just have picnic tables outside for limited seating. You might… Read more

    Is cider available for those benighted individuals who don't drink beer?

    Hey Sarah, we do have cider and wine for all non-beer drinkers. The cider is from our friends at Fairweather and we have red, white, rose, and bubbly for wine.

That's right, they have Ranch Water on Tap coming out of the spicket just like draft beer. It was really good and very popular with the other patrons. I ordered the Italian Sub and my wife ordered the Muffuletta Sandwich. They both had so much meat and veggies on them. It was actually kinda hard to take a bite, but we managed. They were both very good. The service in this place is amazing. I got to give a shout out to my bartender "Matt"! He was so attentive, on top of everything and had a great personality. He's one of the best bartender's I've ever had. It was a pleasure to meet you Matt! The atmosphere and ambiance in this place is very lively, joyful and rocking. They had a band that was made up of several band members from a school (sorry I don't remember the name of the school) that was killing it on stage. They played all kinds of music and a lot of old rock and roll music. They were so much fun to listen to and watch. This was our first time here, but it for sure won't be our last. I think we found a new hangout!!

The beer menu was extensive and probably something for anyone including THC and NA. The beer garden itself is very cool, lots of communal tables. And outside there are picnic tables set up, some covered. There was a food truck there with sausages, not sure if it's permanent or not. Also inside, a huge stage for bands. This place must be a draw on music nights. Highly recommend!

In the attached picture from left to right I rank the sake from bad to less bad. The one of the right was bearable but I still would not buy it alone. Perhaps the japanese sakes would have tasted better? We also decided not to get the sushi hand rolls to try and make the drinks more bearable as they did not have much variety or sounded good. I was also not a fan of the interior. Kind of reminded me of an old chinese buffet with those large stick chairs and tables. The staff here were friendly, but nothing else really redeemed here

We got Texas Sake tasting to start with and this is where we finished. The flight looked very different from other people's reviews here and tasted VERY fishy. The yellow-ish one was probably the most bearable one but it still was not good at all. To be very honest, I really had to push myself to take more than one sip of each. If I had nothing to compare with, I would probably refrain from being this harsh, but I have had cheap and expensive sake and I have never tasted anything this bad... We looked at the hand roll options and we didn't find anything we would be interested in. The interior felt like it was a bingo room with a couple of Japan inspired booths that looked a little bit out of place compared to the rest of the floor. Gave one star for nice staff and a cool fish mural.
