If you’re all about trying new beers and breweries, this one is for you – particularly if you’re a fan of beer gardens. And certainly, you want to try the best of the best that Texas has to offer, so read on. 

I came across Tasting Table’s list of 15 Must-Visit Beer Gardens in the US, hoping to discover a new beer garden to try here in the Lone Star State, and was rewarded with not one, but two breweries, both of which are located in Austin.

While I’m admittedly not the biggest craft beer drinker, I do like to try new beers. I especially love supporting local breweries. And for my money, you can’t beat the atmosphere of a nice outdoor beer garden. 

The great thing about living in Texas is that, outside of the dog days of summer and some of the cold stretches we have to endure from time to time, you can usually chill outside in comfort. And lately, the weather has been perfect for it. 

So, if you’re in the mood for good beer and specialty sausages, all made in-house, you’ll want to hit up Banger’s Sausage House & Beer Garden.

Or if you’re craving a good old-fashioned wood-fired pizza, Jester King Brewery is the way to go. Hell, you can even mingle with their pet goats if you’re so inclined.
