St Elmo Brewing

One of the best breweries in Texas. All their brews are consistently good. Reminds me of Humble Sea or North Park in terms of beer styles. Beautiful facilities inside and out. Love the coffee bar inside, they actually serve fantastic pulls of espresso and other coffee beverages which I've found tough to find in Texas. Outdoor area if kid friendly with playscapes and toys. If you hate children, this is not the place for you on weekends. They have some of the best taco trucks around. Spicy Boys it's amazing Korean style spicy fried chicken. They have a couple locations, but this one has the best service. Pueblo Vieja serves some "authentic" street tacos, another solid option. The only gripes I can share are, it's too far from my home and beer prices are a bit high.

I went to several breweries while on a boys trip to Austin. St Elmo was my favorite of all. The brewery is located in a very cool location. I wish I could go back on a Friday or Saturday evening. St Elmo has a lot of good beer options. I got a flight to sample some of them. The cream ale was my top choice. They have a couple Pilsners and lagers as well.

They don't like dogs here & are quite rude about it. Although there's kids yelling & babies crying throughout. So, if you have a fur baby -- best to go elsewhere. Austin Beer Works significantly friendlier staff. Staff could have been way nicer about it. I work in the service industry & it's not tough to ask in a nice way. Also their beers to take home are overpriced. You could get a cheaper, better beer at HEB.

THE BIG: New St. Elmo location in the Springdale area (north east) of Austin. Big parking lot, that gets filled up quickly with tons of outdoor space and a brew hall indoor space that is packed.THE BLACK AND WHITE: So glad this is close to my house ~2mins that have probably one of my favorite beers (Carl). Ordering beer is the standard line to order and they have some pretty gnarly specials here for Oktoberfest that includes the steins of the Carl and the Oktoberfest beer.You got your regular food trucks here as well (thank goodness for spicy bois). The combo of beer + fried chicken sandwich is overpowered. Wifi is fast, so if you need to do work, this could be a place to do it.THE FINAL BAMBOO: Regular pricing with the South Austin location here at St. Elmo. ~$6-$8 for beers here and you won't be disappointed. Welcome to the North East side!

Great beer in a beautiful location.With the in laws in town over Thanksgiving, I did the only sensible thing and went brewery hopping. First stop was St. Elmo, and it set the tone for the rest of the day.They open at 8AM, which is less crazy than it sounds, as they offer coffee and pastries. I was absolutely shocked at how many families were at a brewery at 10AM on a random Wednesday, but after spending some time there, I see why.The interior has huge ceilings, is light and airy, with super welcoming staff. They didn't even give my brother-in-law and I any side eye when we ordered beer at 10AM. They make good use of the outdoor space as well, with plenty of covered seating and a small space for kids to play. There were a LOT of children here on this particular day, which felt a little strange.The beer was top notch, I especially loved their mixed-berry sour (just the right amount of sour!) while my BIL raved about the Saucy Nuggs. I'm not a huge IPA guy, but he said it was the best of the day.

I love St Elmo Brewing. Look I'm biased, their namesake beer is Carl and I grew up hating my name because I never could find souvenirs with my name on it. Carlos, Carly and Carol but rarely a Carl. I love the original location so much that when I moved to Austin, I chose South Austin to be close to it.Over the years, my love for St Elmo has never waned. I've been part of the beer club for two years now and will keep it going for however long they keep doing it. There's always plenty of beer on tap so you're bound to find something you'll like. My favorites tend to be the lighter beers and the sours, and nothing hits like a cold Carl on a hot day. This location also has a coffee menu and non alcoholic beverages, making it more like the day to night spots where you can work from.The new location is on Springdale road northeast of the original location. I was able to come today a bit before the soft opening on Friday because I'm part of the beer club. There's not a lot around there but the new location is beautiful with indoor and outdoor seating, a small kids area, two food trucks (Spicy Boys, and Pueblo Viejo), and a decent size parking lot. The space is really nice, it almost feels like a boutique hotel or restaurant with the terracotta tiled bar. The same muralist who did the colorful artwork at the original location and some previous merchandise and beer did a large one inside the new location. I thought the inside would be bigger but most of the interior space is taken up for the actual brewing, which you can see into.Being so close to the original location though, I probably won't find as many opportunities to come here but very happy for the team and a new location and community that can enjoy it.

Such good beer here! I had the West Coast IPA that I unfortunately can't remember the name of and couldn't find on the website as well as the Olly which is an English Brown Ale. That was my favorite beer there by far. It was absolutely delicious and very light. Staff was very cool too. Educational about the beers and friendly. Only negative that some people might have (not me) is that it is very kid friendly. So if you don't want to drink and have kids running around, this may not be the place for you. For me, that is not a deterrent. While I have no idea if I will ever be back in Austin, if I am, then I would definitely come here for a couple drinks one day.

St Elmo - congrats on the expansion! North Austin has lost too many breweries, and this is a very welcome addition. Great beers, great patio, and great food trucks (currently Spicy Boys and Pueblo Viejo). I miss 'Side Carls', but I see those $2 Monday Carls...

This is St. Elmo's second location located just a short walk from 290 on Springdale and occupies a building which was formerly a strip joint. The building has been very nicely renovated with all the amenities. You can see the entire brewing operation through the windows inside. Plenty of parking and lots of space both inside and outside to sit at. Best of all they are unveiling three new beers (see photo below) which should get you through the door. But wait, there's more, they have additional taps for beers that they make just for the taproom only. No guest taps yet. Other drink choices include some wine, NA beer and a nice coffee bar.Feeling hungry? They hope to have three food trucks on site, but currently they have the Spicy Boys chicken truck and are adding the Pueblo Viejo truck. Spicy boys truck is credit/debit only no cash (tip screen also), can't speak for the other truck. Great place to kick back and enjoy their fresh made beers.

We came here with some family and friends on a Thursday evening. The parking lot was completely full! I asked and you could park in their neighbors lot, Reeces plumbing if needed. The feel of the place is so chill and spacious! I love the indoor and outdoor spaces. We spent most of our time outside by the kids little play area. I tried their classic Carl beer and it was refreshing! I would definitely come again.
