    I really like St. Elmo's Brewing and the pours they put out. Today (2/14/26) was my first visit to this location for their dog Valentine's Day party. This day started out drizzly in the morning but became a full-fledged rainstorm in the afternoon (of course when we were ready for the party). Didn't let the rare Austin rainstorm stop our guy, Sir Benjamin Doolittle from missing out on a fun time. It was a great gathering with Austin Pets Alive! holding an adoption fair (a few dogs left with new humans while we were there), Tomlinson's, Chewy Vet Care, & more. I had a lavender spritz mocktail that was super refreshing and flavorful. The boyfriend had a cherry sour pour, and we shared a frozen boozy coffee, while B-Boy enjoyed treats provided by the brewery, and a pup cup from Chewy. The service, drinks, and environment were spot-on, welcoming vibes you expect from a brewery. We're fans. Had a blast!

    I'm always a huge fan of St. Elmo's. I was thrilled to find out there was a location up north. The beers are the same standard as the ones down south. The vibes are great lots of indoor and outdoor seating. They have solid food trucks if you want to grab a bite to eat. The staff is super friendly and helpful. They have great recommendations depending on your taste and profile. They have a lot of parking and more parking near the space. The only reason for one star down. I had this weird instance that connected me to a WiFi network automatically once I walked in. This could totally not be on them, but thought it was weird I walked in and it connected by itself but didn't connect to anything.

    Pretty solid brewery with a wide selection. Parking can be limited in the main lot if this place gets packed especially with an event. We stumbled across a labubu event an it was swarming with kids........and adults getting their keychains customized. The seating inside is smaller but it's pretty nice. Food truck options are more limited to tacos and spicy boys chicken.

    St Elmo brewing is such a gem ! I love this quaint brewery and the chill vibe. There's indoor seating and outdoor. There's a couple good trucks. Spicy chicken and a Mexican food truck. There's plenty of beer options. I wish there were more mocktail options. I tried two of the mocktail and they were both very tart and acidic. Not a fan. We had spicy boys for dinner and ordered: * wings: 3/5 the flavor was ok and I wish the wings were more crispy. * naan and panang curry: curry was sweeter side 2/5 * tots: 3/5 crispy but super oily * our friends got the chicken nuggets and I think that was better than the wings. Same seasoning and flavor. 4/5 We went on a Friday night and were able to get a table outside and inside. Family friendly. Ppl brought their kids and this kids threw a ball and knocked our drinks over and got our clothes wet. The kids apologized but the parents didn't. SMH. Do I recommend this place? Yes limited eats but nice place to come hang out with friends.

    My friend and I came here to participate in the Dia de los Muertos event. We had come from a different Dia de los Muertos event closer to Downtown in East Austin near the library branch but wanted something a little more different. While unfortunately we didn't find that at St Elmo Brewing (Springdale), we still had a lovely time drinking the unique brews and hiding from the rain.

    I went to several breweries while on a boys trip to Austin. St Elmo was my favorite of all. The brewery is located in a very cool location. I wish I could go back on a Friday or Saturday evening. St Elmo has a lot of good beer options. I got a flight to sample some of them. The cream ale was my top choice. They have a couple Pilsners and lagers as well.

    Beautiful new St. Elmo taproom. First we started with an IPA then discovered a delicious frozen delight. Staff were upbeat, knowledgeable, and extremely pleasant. Finally, there were two amazing food truck choices Pueblo Viejo and Spicy Boys. We loved our visit! Had a great chill day enjoying cold beverages and cauliflower nugs! We'll definitely be back!

    THE BIG: New St. Elmo location in the Springdale area (north east) of Austin. Big parking lot, that gets filled up quickly with tons of outdoor space and a brew hall indoor space that is packed. THE BLACK AND WHITE: So glad this is close to my house ~2mins that have probably one of my favorite beers (Carl). Ordering beer is the standard line to order and they have some pretty gnarly specials here for Oktoberfest that includes the steins of the Carl and the Oktoberfest beer. You got your regular food trucks here as well (thank goodness for spicy bois). The combo of beer + fried chicken sandwich is overpowered. Wifi is fast, so if you need to do work, this could be a place to do it. THE FINAL BAMBOO: Regular pricing with the South Austin location here at St. Elmo. ~$6-$8 for beers here and you won't be disappointed. Welcome to the North East side!

    I love St Elmo Brewing. Look I'm biased, their namesake beer is Carl and I grew up hating my name because I never could find souvenirs with my name on it. Carlos, Carly and Carol but rarely a Carl. I love the original location so much that when I moved to Austin, I chose South Austin to be close to it. Over the years, my love for St Elmo has never waned. I've been part of the beer club for two years now and will keep it going for however long they keep doing it. There's always plenty of beer on tap so you're bound to find something you'll like. My favorites tend to be the lighter beers and the sours, and nothing hits like a cold Carl on a hot day. This location also has a coffee menu and non alcoholic beverages, making it more like the day to night spots where you can work from. The new location is on Springdale road northeast of the original location. I was able to come today a bit before the soft opening on Friday because I'm part of the beer club. There's not a lot around there but the new location is beautiful with indoor and outdoor seating, a small kids area, two food trucks (Spicy Boys, and Pueblo Viejo), and a decent size parking lot. The space is really nice, it almost feels like a boutique hotel or restaurant with the terracotta tiled bar. The same muralist who did the colorful artwork at the original location and some previous merchandise and beer did a large one inside the new location. I thought the inside would be bigger but most of the interior space is taken up for the actual brewing, which you can see into. Being so close to the original location though, I probably won't find as many opportunities to come here but very happy for the team and a new location and community that can enjoy it.

    Beautiful new patio

    St Elmo - congrats on the expansion! North Austin has lost too many breweries, and this is a very welcome addition. Great beers, great patio, and great food trucks (currently Spicy Boys and Pueblo Viejo). I miss 'Side Carls', but I see those $2 Monday Carls...

    This is St. Elmo's second location located just a short walk from 290 on Springdale and occupies a building which was formerly a strip joint. The building has been very nicely renovated with all the amenities. You can see the entire brewing operation through the windows inside. Plenty of parking and lots of space both inside and outside to sit at. Best of all they are unveiling three new beers (see photo below) which should get you through the door. But wait, there's more, they have additional taps for beers that they make just for the taproom only. No guest taps yet. Other drink choices include some wine, NA beer and a nice coffee bar. Feeling hungry? They hope to have three food trucks on site, but currently they have the Spicy Boys chicken truck and are adding the Pueblo Viejo truck. Spicy boys truck is credit/debit only no cash (tip screen also), can't speak for the other truck. Great place to kick back and enjoy their fresh made beers.

    Hot diggity damn. Want a beer, come right over here! St Elmo is the bomb. I started buying beer to go from St. Elmo during Covid. The drive south was easy then from Pflugerville. My love was "Tiny Vikings" back in those days. I couldn't get enough. The staff were the best and your order was right on time. I graduated to "Smalls", when Tiny Vikings was phased out. Enough of history. I will always love the south location esp, Noah and Maggie, but we all know Austin traffic and the drive to and from was rough. Imagine the delight when the Springdale location was born. I followed feverishly for the grand opening. I got off early Friday and headed that way just to toast in one of my favorite breweries. Arrived at 2:30 pm and was in awe outside the building, absolutely beautiful and parking was amazing, but I was one of the first people there. Recognized a few of the south location there. Ordered my Smalls and basked in the glory of the new location. Inside is pretty dang big and the outside is huge. 2 amazing food trucks. Recognized the new GM from Meanwhile, very sweet and attentive. The staff couldn't have been more helpful and friendly. I just sat, sipped, and enjoyed. Tried the new hazy "Zero", talk about full of flavor and depth. So happy this is close to my hood. The place was packed by the time I left at 3:30. I can't wait to go back, but will let the newness die down at bit. Beer, beer, beer, come on over here. You will not be disappointed

Starting on the lighter side of the beer spectrum from here we had the (512) Beer: 30 which is an American Light Lager. In the flavor profile for this beer you can find a natural sweetness, a crisp and clean presence as well. The beer was light bodied and very easy to drink more than one of! Moving to darker beer territory and the one that I liked maybe just a little bit better (but it was neck and neck) was the (512) Pecan Porter. This was a fun porter as it was on the nutty side of things as the name indicates. All the flavors blended in very nicely. Flavor features in this beer to find is sweetness, a coffee presence and of course the pecan flavor. The beer is nice and smooth and creamy in body. Two good beers from two different beer types made this beer exploration a little bit more well rounded.

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.

    We didn't even realize that Pinthouse Brewing had a sourdough crust (apparently not all locations…read moredo), so that was such a fun surprise. The sourdough pizza was really good--almost like a focaccia/Detroit-style hybrid, but with the sauce layered on the bottom. Super flavorful, crispy edges, soft inside... honestly just hit.

The building is quite large and inside is cool as the seating is quite spacious and a large number of people can enjoy food and drink at once.

When we were at Pinthouse I spotted a Mexican Lager which is a type of lager I love and especially in warm weather... a perfect summer beer for me! The name of the beer was Burro's Breakfast. In the flavor profile of this beer you will find a naturally sweet corn flavor, some maltiness along with a tart and dry finish. The beer is light bodied like most lagers of this type and smooth in body. In addition to having a beer we also decided to get some lunch. So we got a chicken sandwich a piece along with coleslaw and had a very nice lunch. Coming to Pinthouse Brewing proved to be a good stop as we made a pretty extensive tour of the breweries in Austin.
