GFisher Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 Meanwhile Brewing Shadow Gate Schwartzbier. Pretty tasty. Had never heard of this place but it was the only brewery open on Monday on the way back into town from riding the eastern trails (Lake Bryan and Beuscher State Park). This is a solid place. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got mine in the (dirty south) park meadows location but specs might have more at their other stores, or going directly to Vista. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't wait to get this covid shit behind us and spend some more time there. Also, did you see the new pinthouse theyre building just east of 35 on 71?

ATXZJ Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Staying on the local tip. We made some killer porkchops and broke out a bottle of this rum barrel aged dark cider we'd been holding on to for a year. Pretty tasty combo. Also, anyone try this temp? I'm a sucker for a good tempranillo and this barrel aged one was surprisingly good. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did my research and had 9 bourbons on my list before heading to Total Wine. Remarkably, I worked my way down to the final bottle on my list before getting a hit. Can't say that I'm disappointed at all, but a little bit bummed that my research is yielding such a low batting average on availability. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 WT Kentucky Spirit is generally very good. And that's to be expected considering that it's effectively a single barrel version of WT101. But for about the same money, I always reach for Rare Breed instead. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, did you see the new pinthouse theyre building just east of 35 on 71? I didn't notice the Pinthouse until I looked at Google maps. That place is doing well, it doesn't surprise me. It makes sense Meanwhile is from out of town, starting off with a top of the line facility like that. I am getting around a fair amount now but am very conscious of covid. They had some of the best protocols I have seen. No indoor seating, can order from an outside window, glass partitions, a foot operated hand sanitizer by the inside bar, foot opener for restroom door, plenty of distanced outside seating, 100% mask compliance from what I saw, and a new one, a giant coaster of sorts on each outside table that indicated if it had been sanitized. When you sat at a table you flipped it over so it could be cleaned after you left. Another extra step I saw was at Humble Pint Brewing in Leander (also nice with good pizza, but with fairly limited outdoor seating) was that they would put saran wrap over the credit card machine each time so you wouldn't have to actually touch it. I think some places are really making it about as safe as possible although we are creating a ton of extra waste in the process. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 It was bottle kill day on New Year's Eve with @Jessica! NYE was the day to clear out the cabinet a bit. Every bottle here had 2 to 3 drinks left. So we started at 10am and took it slow. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
