Real Ale Brewing

The reason I stayed a weekend in Blanco. The good: Great beer and Spirits. Like honestly some of my favorite beer in the world and the gin is also very very good. lots and lots of outside seating. Friendly staff. Signature cocktails were all very very good. The not so good: Food on site is a rotating food truck, so that can be hit or miss. the inside seating is a bit limited, its not tiny but not a giant space. So on a super hot day you may be stuck outside in the shade.If you are in Blanco and like beer this is the place to go.

Fun experience. We tried flights of ale and flights of whisky. All were good. They even offer board games you can play while drinking.

We visited here on Sunday afternoon April 7, the day before the total solar eclipse. It's a huge outdoor space and it was nice enough to sit outside and enjoy the drinks we bought at the bar inside. The bartenders were very friendly and made great drinks! If we get to visit Blanco again we will definitely come back here for a relaxing time with friends.

Other than the location (BFE), it's great! They have great food trucks, great beer, and awesome tap room with an mazing view of the Texas Hill Country. The staff were polite and prompt, assuming I am ever near Blanco again, I'll be back!

It has been about four years since I've been out here. It's sad to see so many trees removed to make more parking, but I get it. I am glad they are doing so well! The tap room has a great amount of draft beers available, as well as some you can only get there. They also offer cocktails for those who are not into beer.There is a ton of seating outdoors, but the tap room itself isn't huge. I wish this place were closer so I could visit more often!

Terrific and unique place especially when the weather is warm. Great beer and hill country scene.

This was a great visit/tour and our guide was the CFO of the company and answered and and all questions we had. Real Ale is a Texas only Brand and never pasteurized and filtered naturally....the place is incredibly clean and organized....the tour lasted about an hour and we of course stated for a few beers as well.

Pretty cool place with a friendly staff . We tried a couple of their seltzers. Nice and refreshing on this hot day. Go check it out. Let's support local

Real Ale Brewing was a fun visit that had plenty to do and plenty of places to relax and hangout. Between the indoor and outdoor seating, there was ample space for groups to enjoy their time and not feel crowded by others. The distillery puts out a great lineup of beer and whisky which makes for something for everyone. This stop on the Texas Whisky Trail was certainly enjoyable!

Real Ale has been on my list of breweries to try while in the San Antonio area. Granted, that's a pretty loose definition of San Antonio area and I'm usually gone or working during their operating hours.I deliberately flew into San Antonio early so I could make it to Real Ale on Sunday before they closed. I even got my friend to make an early morning 3 hour drive to join me. I ended up making the hour drive to Real Ale and parked in their lot and cluelessly wandered the grounds until we found the taproom on the second floor.While I wanted to try their beers on tap I really wanted to try their spirits. They had draft cocktails so I started with their Peanut Old Fashioned. I also tried two of their beers their anniversary Golden Stout and the Black IPA which were also pretty good. There's not much food wise on Sundays-if there was it would have helped me stay a little longer since I definitely needed something solid to continue drinking.
