Austin micro breweries 9/30/2018 to 10/4/2018

Visited 33 microbreweries in Austin, TX region. Standouts were Jester King, Lazarus, Sean Patrick in San Marcos.  Had a new style IPA, a Brut IPA, very dry, no sugar, developed in CA in April 2018.  A lot of good IPAs in Austin that ate well worth the visit.
