Highly recommend Leanderthal Distilling!

It doesn't happen super often but she says maybe once every month or every other month or so. Saw people with some food they brought in, and they also had a corner with some board games. The drinks were delish! And very decently priced. Bartender was nice. Only met bar tenders wife, wasn't overly friendly, but good bc customer service. Did see owner, but didn't meet him personally. My husband also really enjoyed himself. Definitely can see us returning here!

It's definitely a destination, in the sense that you're not going to just stumble across it on your next walk. I happen to love this vibe. The crowd skews a bit older, despite the fact that cocktails range from $8 - 10. When I went, it was chill, and a big country band was out jamming on the gazebo. There's also a smaller stage indoors. They brew/distill everything on sight and I've been told there are sporadic tours, which I really want in on. Hopefully those start up again soon! I know I'll be back for a bottle of whiskey, regardless.

They have 2 rooms with a lot of seating, and an outdoor stage where the band was performing. I really enjoyed the band, and they drew a good sized crowd. I enjoyed my drinks. I forgot to take a picture of the last one, the Mango Volcano, made with chipotle rum, and it was my favorite. The drinks are well made and reasonably priced which I loved. Everyone at the bar was very friendly. I do wish there had been a little more outdoor seating, but it looked like they were repairing some of their picnic tables. The location and band made for a fun Friday night. Link to the band's website: http://www.bookthecovers.com

It's delightful how they've grown. Flannigans is clearly a labor of love (for alcohol, architecture, food and Texas history) and the joy of experimentation. Food is great, wine is great, spirits are exceptional. The Texas American Gothic (TAG) is a completely unique experience that needs to spread. TX liquor distributors need to jump on this yesterday. Catch Kevin (one of the owners) at the right time and you just might find yourself in a trivia battle!

They do not have any food, but they do have a rotation of food trucks that occupy a part of their parking lot and deliver some great unique food offerings to pair well with the beer This place was jampacked. There was a party going on to celebrate the fourth... Overall great ambience to this local joint. My Service really was the story of two ends of the Spectrum. My initial visit to the counter/bar. I had a great interaction with a gentleman with a outstanding English accent and very much interested in finding a beer that would satisfy my palate.He was Super friendly and interactive - five star service My second visit to the counter/bar was a total and complete train wreck. The bartender was not interactive and did not engage in any type of meaningful conversation and was not helpful in sharing her knowledge of beers on tap. I am super thankful for the initial interaction because it saved the day.

Their English style IPA brought back fond memories of enjoying a pint in Oxford Eng. This is not a west coast IPA ao don't expect any citrus just hops and malt! The Knock Out Blonde is a wonderful Belguim Tripel that checks in at a hefty 8.9% ABV. Beware, this beer will sneak up on you. My 2nd Fav is Steve's Brown an English style brown ale that drinks as smooth as all heck. We also had the opportunity to sample their Dos Hermanos Mexican lager beer. This beer will be a hit and is perfect for a hot summer day. This is a rustic no frills brew pub that is serving up some fantastic beers. According to the owner, a great guy, food will be available soon. Pro tip: Be sure to check their hours as they do close early. Perfect for us day time drinkers.

They have events and food trucks weekly, a bunch of TVs, around 10 beers on tap, and a nice crowd of regulars keeping the vibe up.

The food was genuinely excellent, and the service was warm and attentive throughout. The bed was also a standout -- more comfortable than what I've experienced at most four-star hotels. I also loved the in-room Nespresso machine, which was a great touch. The only drawbacks are the location and setting. It's not ideal if you want to be close to a more metropolitan, walkable area, and being right on the creek means there can be quite a few bugs, especially in the evening. Overall, I'd definitely recommend it if you're looking for a relaxing, stylish getaway with great food and very comfortable rooms.
