Southern Heights might win the prize for most stylish taproom in Austin, as it's made up of 3 retrofitted shipping containers inside a warehouse. The owners are just a couple of cool dudes who make beer and want you to drink it. Prices are low, on-site taco truck is top tier, and if you can survive the lack of A/C (big fans though!) this is one of the must see breweries in Austin. read more

I stopped by Southern Heights on a Saturday afternoon for a light drink, some tacos, and a new atmosphere with my partner. We really enjoyed it! We've live in the area for 4 years but have never made it over for whatever reason. We each ordered a beer (I got the ACMC) and sat down to send some emails and read our books. It was a little hot, I will say, even though we were sitting inside. However, we discovered that just behind the bar area, there is another larger seating area, and that one has big, industrial fans. We moved our stuff there and felt much more regulated in temperature! This back area has a ping pong table, cornhole, couches, and picnic tables. There is plenty of free parking in the lot out front, as well as outdoor seating for when the weather is not as hot. We'll be back! read more

Southern Heights Brewery - ACMC session hazy - Breweries Near Me - Austin, Texas

We got here right at 3 o'clock when they opened and were the first two customers on aThursday. This brewery sits in what looks like an out of date 1980s office park with plenty of parking. Nonetheless, it's been cobbled together well enough to make it work, although they do not have any AC. They do have the largest ceiling fan I've ever seen that creates quite a breeze. Plenty of seating in front of the bar and another room to sit behind the bar. They do have some QR codes on the tables so you can order something from the food truck. Their beers are solid, on point and correct to style. They do self distribute kegs to bars, but you won't find their 6pks in stores. They do make a good diverse selection, which seems to suit everyone's tastes. This is a dog friendly establishment, and there are numerous picnic tables outside, some of which are in the shade. They also have some of their beers already canned up to go, otherwise, they're $5 to $7 a pint at the bar. It's a nice off the beaten path place to grab some good quality beer and kick back with friends. Photos included to get you acquainted. read more

An Austin brewery staple! Never had a beer I did not like. Jam session was our top beer again this time. Also really liked the pleasantly pleasant and the boujier kids! read more

Stop #140 of breweries! I can't believe this gem of a place isn't talked about more in the Austin area! We tried all of the options they had on tap with 2 different flights and 2 extra 5oz glasses. My favorite was definitely the Uncommon Grounds coffee Pilsner. We even took a gorgeous Crowley home of it. If you love beer beer you can't go wrong with most of these. Some of the best IPA's in Austin. If you're not a big beer person you may not find what you will like except for the sour or a light Pilsner, but as absolute beer lover I was happy with nearly every beer they had. The beer tenders were super friendly and took care with each customer. There were plenty of people with well behaved children and dogs inside and outside. There are separate women's and mens rooms that are fairly clean and even have their own air conditioners in them. Plenty of tvs for watching whatever game is currently on. The Wi-Fi password is HopsMaltYeast. They have some board games as well as corn hole. A Great Wall of swag you can buy from them. They had a food truck parked outside for what appeared to be Mexican food, we didn't try it this time but maybe next time. Everything smelled great when plates passed us by. No doubt we will be back to this brewery soon! Literally a hidden gem! read more

Came here on a Saturday afternoon in the summer and had a mostly positive experience. Definitely planning to give this spot another try, just not during a heat wave We decided to give this spot a try when we saw it had a large indoor space as that's a little harder to find for breweries in Austin. While that is the case, there were some issues keeping the place cool. After hanging there for a little over 2 hours it did occasionally venture into uncomfortably hot, so if you're going on a similar search you may want to look elsewhere. With that said, they have ample, reasonably comfortable indoor space, a couple of TVs, and board games The staff was very friendly, my server gave helpful recommendations and even added in an extra beer to my flight for free! Unfortunately the taste of the beer was comprised a bit by the temperature. My guess would be they were mostly near the end of the keg and quickly got even warmer due to the temperature in the tap room. The flavor was good enough that I'd give them the benefit of the doubt and want to try again, particularly given the wide range of interesting options they had. Overall, I think this spot is worth a try if you're looking for a more under the radar brewery in town, with the given temperature related caveats read more

Sneaky good neighborhood brewery. Love their Mexican lager and any stout on tap. Plenty of parking based on clientele size. They also have one of my favorite taco trucks on property. Great combination in northeast Austin. read more

We went for the austin fc game earlier. It was probably my 12th time there but first time in over a year. They almost always have a food truck out front and have some of the best core beers in austin imo. Tahitian dreamin ipa is my fave and easily top 10 of atx beers. They usually have good sours as well as pilsners and fannel weather is always solid. Good space for large groups and kid friendly (no playscapes tho). Staff is almost always the same awesome ppl. read more

Good drinks, good service, weird that it was in a warehouse though. Went here when it was a little chilly outside and they don't have an actual heater or AC so it was a little cold in there. A friend I was with said the same when it's summer, they'll open up the garage doors to let a breeze in but it's still warm if it's hot outside. If you're coming with kids, not the best play area. There's room to like run around a little but no actual area to entertain the little ones. Food truck outside was amazing though, would be back just for that. read more

Great beer. The food truck is AMAZING. Dog friendly, even inside. It was a nice little place that we'll return to.

Love the patio and the beer, especially their not-so-sour raspberry ale. It reminded me of a lambic. Service was excellent and descriptive. We enjoyed the shaded area about the outdoor tables. read more

This is a really nice brewery. Very spacious with plenty of space inside and outside seating as well. It's also dog friendly, so my dogs are a fan people watching. I think they typically participate for the Barks for Beers event so I'm sure I'll be back soon. I think if you really enjoy checking out the Austin brewery scene--this is a good spot to check out. read more

This brewery is a hidden gem! Tucked away in the outskirts of Austin, it truly is an awesome brewery. Came here on a Saturday afternoon, not crowded whatsoever, plenty of football on, and tons of good beer! The brewery is huge and has an awesome layout, plenty of seating outside too along with a food truck. The sour and IPA were delicious. Really enjoyed hanging out here for some football and beer. This place does not disappoint! One of the best breweries by far in Austin if you want a local and chill vibe. read more

Enjoyed my first visit to Southern Heights! The staff was friendly and there was a decent selection of draft brews to choose from at a reasonable price (I enjoyed their sole Porter, the Samoan Joe). I hope to try something else on the menu if they grow their dark beer menu. The environment was great on a Sunday afternoon, with several folks there enjoying the NFL playoffs on their TVs. Wish they had a bit more to choose from in terms of snacks or food (TacoWey is a decent food truck parked outside). Seems as though this place is a bit of a hidden gem, given that its location is literally hidden off 183. Look forward to another visit. read more

Dog friendly, great cross-breeze, games, tv, delicious beer. We did not get food at the food truck, but that's a great bonus to have available. Plenty of seating for our group. A fun addition when brewery hopping!! read more

Visited this wonderful brewery with my boyfriend over Thanksgiving week, and they are well-rounded with great board games, awesome hazy IPAs, and free stickers, jk a wonderful spacious atmosphere. I would highly recommend this place for casual dates, group meetups, and all your brewery outing needs! We both had a pint of beer to start with, then ended up with a set of tasters each to try more of their other beers. I was so pleased to see on their menu tonnnnns of hazy IPA's, but also that they had a larger number of beers on tap to choose from! That's always a mini gold mine when there are over 10 beers on tap. There were two beertenders on shift when we went, and we had to wait a bit for us to get our orders in, but the place is so chill and so spacious that we didn't mind waiting. We saw a lot of other couples, small groups, and even people with their dogs inside!! So dog-friendly brewery, check! They also had cornhole indoors as well as pool! I love that this brewery caters to making itself a great source of beer, but also a great place to hang out. That is sometimes forgotten, but this warehouse style brewery does it all. Everything is super low-key, and they even had a food truck outside too. Their restrooms are clean, wifi strong, and their brewery holds plenty of parking space! I can't wait to come back again. read more

Southern Heights Brewery - Hazy cloud IPA - Breweries Near Me - Austin, Texas

As far as beer goes, this place is at the top of the list for breweries in Austin. Awesome food truck out front serving tacos as well. Tahitian Dream is one of my favorite IPAs in Austin. Only downside is the early closing hours and the lack of A/C during the heat. read more

Hands down the absolute BEST IPAs I've had in Austin. I literally tried every single beer on tap and enjoyed all of them. It's a little off the beaten path but, it is most definitely worth the trip! They've got hazy IPAs for days and they can appeal to any palate. Walking into Southern Heights I wasn't the biggest fan of IPAs, I had never found one that really really did it for me...this place made me rethink my stance on IPAs. They are posted up in a super cool warehouse that's mostly open and is welcoming to parties of all shapes and sizes. When I went, there were even a lot of kiddos there. The staff was amazing, they were super knowledgeable about their beers and beer in general and they treated my friends and I very well! They have a food truck that comes on the weekend and it is for sure worth a visit as well. read more

I read a few people saying this place had the best IPA's in Austin and they didn't lie... There are so many different IPA's on the menu. Every single one of them was delicious! I tried so many that I don't remember which one was my favorite. Either way, if you like IPA's then try out Southern Heights Brewery! read more

We have been here several times, but this time came during Barks for Beers. We went to 18 breweries in May and the Raspberry Sour here was my favorite beer. My husband loves their IPAs. We also love the laid back vibe here. read more

By far one of my favorite breweries in Austin!! Definitely a hidden gem! I come here all the time and every time I come, it is a great experience. The staff and the two owners are extremely friendly and welcoming. They have a wonderful selection of IPA's (probably the biggest in Austin), as well as a great selection of light beers and delicious dark beers. Regardless of the type of beer you like, I am sure you will find one of their beers amazing. And they are very good about letting you try whatever you want to make sure you get the right beer. Highly recommend checking this place out if you are visiting Austin and are looking for a great brewery or if you live in Austin but have never checked this place out. read more

First time trying this place. Next time I come back into town I would definitely come back. Great atmosphere and the beers here are great, had to take some canned with me home. Also the food truck outside has some great food as well. read more

We're so happy to have discovered this brewery close to our home. We're trying not to go weekly, but that's going to be tough... We love it! Great beers on tap and excellent service. Love that we can bring our kiddos and that it's a pup friendly place. read more

When people say of hole in the wall, they're thinking of Southern Heights. Literally nestled in an out of the way office complex, one would never know! Places like this don't attract uppity people and the interiors resemble that. A great color scheme with not a lot of exotic patterns, the place is rustic and industrial. One of the owners, Mike, will graciously give tours of the brewery that produces the beer sold up front. The beer selection is IPA heavy. Though the selection changes, at the time I went there was five IPAs to choose from. This brewery leans towards dark and bitter beers. A friend mentioned to me that drinking one beer felt like drinking three, and for me the coffee stout hit me harder than anticipated. Southern Heights is Austin born and raised, by people who work industry jobs along side the rest of us. This is where you can drink local and meet local. read more

Nice visit to Southern Heights Brewery today! Place was PACKED for an East Side Brewery Tour. Service was slow but they were understaffed for sure. This brewery offers an EXTENSIVE selection of IPAs, which is great for my dad bod figure. They had Crawfish on special. They were excellent. Me and the shorty smashed these!! Far East location if you like that area. Solid parking. read more

Made it by the brewery on a quiet Sunday and so happy this place exists. Great beer. Friendly staff. Spacious bright and open space. Didn't try the food truck but menu looked great. Would be great to catch a game on tv, play games with friends, or just spend time being able to hear each other talk. A bit of a challenge to get there if coming from the south but persevere. You won't regret it. read more
