They bring in food trucks regularly. Ranging from German food to Texas bbq. The owners and bar tenders are very friendly and know their beer. There is an indoor bar area with a/c as well as a very spacious outdoor area with plenty of seating where they have bands and events regularly. The beer is all great quality and a solid variety. Little bit of something for everyone. My favorites are the peanut butter porter and the kolsch. Their K-9 is also a super easy drinker.

The inside of the brewing company has tables and often does live music or you can hang out at the bar in the air-conditioning but the majority of people at barrows are outside because Burrows also has a phenomenal massive concrete pad that has covered picnic tables and this is where the food trucks park. This is also where they do their live music on the weekends. From behind barrows, you can walk down to the creek, and this is where they have the ice cold natural spring that comes out of the ground. You are welcome to bring their beers down here and sit in the water or sit by the water and hang out and enjoy the creek. Depending on the day, there can be anything happening here from a farmers market to vendors to food trucks to music to dancing anything you can think of so definitely check out their Facebook page for the activities. Absolutely family friendly and there's usually tons of kids having a blast down here with their parents. We like the beer a lot and the staff is friendly and we end up here more than once every single time that we're in Salado, so don't skip it!

Ordered the Grumpy Old Fashioned and another drink. But the old fashioned had me blown away. Forget…read morethe other drink... If that's what grumpy tastes like, sign me up. Rich. Smooth. That hint of chocolate bitterness sneaking in like it has secrets it's not ready to share. Strong, confident, and completely unbothered -- the kind of drink that doesn't raise its voice because it doesn't have to. No unnecessary frills. No overcomplicated theatrics. Just a perfectly crafted cocktail that respects tradition but adds a little dark, sultry wink. It lingers just long enough to make you lean in for another sip. 10/10. Grumpy never tasted so good -- and I wouldn't mind getting into trouble with it again. The bar itself? Classy without being stuffy. The kind of place where you can show up dressed up or dressed down and still feel like you belong. Dim lighting, great vibe, zero pretension. I'll absolutely be back, service was stellar. No food items this time, but definitely will be back!

I had never ordered the Reuben because I thought I would be disappointed as I usually am with this sandwich. But no, the corned beef was tender! You didn't have to tug on the meat while biting to get a bite. Amazingly tender. Is it because it's not cut overly thick or is it how it's cooked. I think a combination of both.
