Over a Pint wt Austin Beerworks

I remember back when we used to number these. Like we thought someone might create a catalogue or reference guide for them.
Wow. Pie in the sky.

So we recently spent some time out at the Austin Beerworks brewery with the ABW boys, Will, Mike, Michael, and Adam (whom you may or may not recall, was the guest on Over a Pint Ep1). They gave us the tour, let us sample some unfiltered, uncarbonated beers, and then participated in an Over a Pint taping.

Since our visit, ABW has released all four of their staple beers on tap, Screaming Eagle IPA (cans pictured above), Peacemaker Extra Pale Ale, Pearl-Snap Pils, and Black Thunder Schwarz beer (black lager), with the Extra Pale Ale and IPA releasing in cans over the past 7 days around town.

Between the four of them, they bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to the table and it shows from their brewery build-out ingenuity, fund raising, marketing and branding, and obviously, the quality of their initial beers. Both Adam and Will have prior brewing experience (at Flying Dog and Real Ale, respectively), and it shows.

Although none of the beers are ground breaking or "extreme" (I'd argue that the Black Thunder is something of an anomaly in these parts... no, Shiner Black doesn't count), they are not setting out to make those beers right now. From their own words, they are aiming to make solid, drinkable, delicious, dry, Texas summer appropriate beers (just heard today the whole state is declared a natural disaster due to the draught and wildfires...)

So without further ado, crack open a cold one and join us over a pint.

Enjoy!
