Blue Owl Brewing

I recently attended a plant class at Blue Owl and it was a fun learning experience! The class was very informative and engaging, making it a perfect way to spend a Saturday afternoon. We arrived around noon and were pleasantly surprised to find ourselves among the few people inside, which made for a cozy and relaxed atmosphere.The brewery offers a couple of non-alcoholic selections, and I tried both. They were pretty good, providing some cool options for those who prefer not to drink alcohol.

Blue Owl is such a rad brewery. Primarily a sours place which I normally don't like. BUT they do them right! I've had four different sours here and they've been downright great. The hops POP!Nice spot to unwind and relax whether on the patio, at the indoor bar, or comfy sofa inside.Gotta love a brewery where employees treat you like a friend.

A good quality sour shouldn't necessarily leave you puckering like you just licked a grapefruit. Blue Owl comes through with sour beer that is both creative and not sour for the sake of being sour, which is a good thing.They offer a good variety on tap and while most are predictably fruit based, they do switch it up with a couple odd balls like tea offerings and my personal favorite: the Lunch Box (PB&J sour). Go for a flight, try a bunch. You can't go wrong.Although I didn't partake this time, they also offer standard beer styles under their pseudonym, Bob's.Nice place, super clean and friendly service. I'd go back.

I lived walking distance from Blue Owl for a year but never made it here. Four years later, I finally got to stop by to give them a try. I was very surprised at how big their draft list was as I thought they only did sours. Not sure how new the "BOB" beers are. Cool vibe brewery with board games and a mini library. Will definitely come back to try some other beers.

If you love sours, don't miss The Blue Owl. We couldn't decide on one beer, so we had a flight of four and loved all of them. The chocolate dapper Dan was the best! This place had a fun, relaxed vibe and great bartenders. We loved it so much that we made a return visit on day 2 of our trip.

The most well done sour beer in Austin. Tigers Blood remains our favorite throughout the years here, but they always have great other seasonal releases as well. Staff is usually quite helpful and great at explaining the brews to. Ale sure you like your pick. More recently they have started to offer more variety of beers rather than just sours, but they really do sours best. Clean, cute bathrooms and lots of merch for sale. Not a ton of seating inside, but a nice sized patio for the area outside and most of it sis covered and has fans. Relaxed atmosphere, with games for you to use and they have some cozy seating and high tops inside, with a large window viewing the brewing facilities. Parking is a bit confusing for this pale, but there is a shared lot that will validate with code from the local business with the Holly Commons. There is some shaded parking from large trees in joining lots. Lots of painted murals and a very short walk to the front of Blue Owl.

The beer, staff , and atmosphere at blue owl will keep us coming back when in the area. We love the seasonal rotations, some that come back year after year and some that don't. This weekend we got to try the scary slushee series and it did not disappoint! The flavor was sour gummy worms and it was sour and delicious. The texture of this slush was like you were eating a cloud. Its base is their new little boss- yuzu flavor. Can't wait to come back to try the other flavors they brew up!

We were almost too full and tired to come here, but I am so grateful that we did. The service was great - they even charged my phone for me!They have a tasting menu where you get four full pours and then you get to keep the glass for almost the same price as a 4 beer flight so you better believe we did it. We started with the Imperial stout with orange and chocolate and that was our favorite, so much so that we got a 4 pack of it to fly back home with us. The cranberry one was fine, but nothing special. Our final two pours included the Earl Gray tea one which tasted so much of Earl Gray, that I had to also get that one and cans to go. The final one was the pomegranate sour, which my boyfriend enjoyed thoroughly. Unfortunately, there was a bike bar crawl, so the place was packed when we got there, but we were eventually able to find a place to sit outside, and their adorable decorated patio. Even the bathrooms were cute. I would spend a lot of time here if I was a local.

Love the branding of this brewery- I could have bought all the swag! Enjoyed a couple beers here while on a Sunday Funday. They have a lot of beers, but they are mostly sours (not my fav type of beer, but the Hop Damn #10 mix tape IPA was super delicious and crisp and went down real smooth.) I get that it's a casual vibe, but the outdoor seating was super uncomfortable and the 1 bartender was very slow. Next time I'll order 2 at a time lol

Last week was my first time visiting Blue Owl Brewing and I had an absolute blast. Although I was a tad confused trying to find parking here, there is actually a community parking lot they provide validation for after you support select local businesses within Holly Commons. They provide complimentary parking through the parking platform after you make a monetary purchase and the business provides a parking validation code. The parking lot to search for is Holly Commons (they have quite a few murals for ease of reference).Now on to the star itself -- Blue Owl Brewing!If you love sour beers or sour candies in general, then you'll feel like you died and gone to heaven. Blue Owl Brewing was the first of it's kind when they opened their doors as they were an all sours concept. A lot has changed actually since they first opened their doors from what I learned.Their early conception was all sours and you had to buy a glass that came with four pours. Now it's 2023 and you can purchase by the glass, they offer non-sour beers (still alcoholic), and pretty soon food!Plenty of seating inside and they have a covered outdoor patio deck. You can even grab a box of games to use while drinking and hanging out. My favorite beer was the double hazy IPA sour. So good. Don't be afraid to check out their full menu and ask for a tasting. All in all, I'll definitely be back!
