Fun trip to see how they make Shiner beer. I have been to plenty of breweries and I know how they…read moremake beer. I was not sure if it was worth the trip. But we decided to go for a visit. I am glad we did. It is very interesting and cool to see. Go on-line and set up the tour. The Spoetzl Brewery is out of the way but if you put it with another trip it is not a bad drive. The tour price includes a goodie bag and 3 glasses of beer. After you park, go inside to the gift shop to check-in. We went during the week and we had 4 people only so it was a nice tour. On the weekend the tour lady said it can be a large group of people. You get to bring your first beer on the tour. You see videos and beer lines where everything is made and packed up for sale. After the tour less than an hour you get to enjoy 2 more beers if you want. Outside is a big picnic table area covered where you can sit and enjoy your beer. You can eat there as will. There were a lot of people eating a bbq sandwich. You can get them next door to the gift shop. It did look good. Also they have a restaurant but we did not check that out.

I very much enjoy coming to the best little brewery in Texas…read more This time around we came to try the distillery, which was brand new. We bought a couple of tastings, and our bartender was super nice and informative without getting in our way of enjoying the spirits. We brought my mom to hang out and wow, my mom... she can throw them down. While I appreciated the strength of the vodka and the bourbon, my mom totally enjoyed the cinnamon moonshine. After trying out the distilled spirits, we went to the gift shop. I stocked up on some Shiner+Texas Standard gear, that now you can't really get anymore. The store is different than what you can get online, and vice versa... some of the stuff you might find online, you won't find in the in person store. After the tasting and shopping experience, we went to the new restaurant, which showcases the spirits and the seasonal beer. We also waited for the dessert. I enjoyed the bread pudding and we were lucky to try some practice rounds that the mixologists were trying out. All in all, we had a fun visit to one of my favorite places on the planet.

I guess my expectations were a bit high. For the price, the amount of meat on my Texas Dip was…read moreskimpy, especially compared to the photo of it on the website. The side of sriracha mayo and the house sauce I requested were missing from my plate but the pickle spear, I insisted not on my plate, was. The claim of scratch-made sides had me anticipating some hand cut fries, they were not, just mediocre at best. The children coming to the table to try to sell us something was a bit odd. Haven't experienced anything quite like this before. Now for the good stuff, the pretzel was stellar and the hatch chilies queso was some of the best queso I've had. The flight of beers I picked were tasty. I would probably come back for the queso.

This place is absolutely worth the drive! My husband and I were visiting the area and I was…read moredetermined to find gluten-free fish and chips--something I rarely get to enjoy because of celiac disease. After seeing BS Brewing recommended over and over, we decided to give it a try, and it exceeded every expectation. The dedicated gluten-free fryer gave me complete peace of mind, and the fish and chips were phenomenal--crispy, flavorful, and every bit as good as the traditional version. It's such a treat to find a place that takes gluten-free dining seriously without sacrificing taste. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in the area!

Smithville Brewing Company was the very first brewery we went to after landing in Austin and…read moregetting our rental car! It was out in the open space and not in any town which gave it a nice country vibe. Upon entering we wanted some beer after our journey and we were hungry! For my beer choice I got a Cream Ale named 1845 SBC Premium Ale. This was a solid cream ale. Not as sweet as some that I have come across but refreshing and pleasant all the same. I felt like this beer truly hit the spot! It was sweet but also crisp and clean too as we were adjusting to the Texas heat. We tried a few other beers that were in the area as well or from Texas, guest taps. As I said we were hungry and we decided to get a pizza. I don't remeber really the exact name of it but it was a combination type that had peppers, mushrooms, tomato and sausage. We also split a beef sandwich. We were very hungry! But we left very satisfied and Smithville Brewing proved to be a good stop!

Parking was great. That's always my number one concern anywhere but I forgot we are in the country…read moreso there's always extra land for parking. Here it is both paved and unpaved parking. Line was long but the ladies were patient in taking orders. Smaller orders came out fast and the pretzel was the best deal there. Easy to find tables inside and outside was a bit of a gamble because the sun was fierce but there was a nice breeze. Big kids play area in a field so far from the tables. 50% of the people were watching their kids which I was not impressed by. You don't get a vacation from parenting. Hot food from the food trailer took a bit to come out but the girl back there was working her butt off. The orders were coming in in large amounts because groups of people kept showing up. Overall a nice place and well maintained.
