Enjoy A Farm-To-Glass Brewing Experience At This Unique Brewery In Texas
One of the best breweries in Texas not only has great beer, but also emphasizes sustainability by sourcing its hops and other ingredients from local farms. Vista Brewing is a 21-acre brewery in Driftwood with an outdoor beer garden, live music, and incredible food menu, and it will quickly become one of your new favorite watering holes in the Hill Country.
Similar to the concept of farm-to-table dining, "farm-to-glass" brewing involves the sourcing and utilization of local ingredients to promote sustainability and conservation. Vista Brewing, located in the Hill Country town of Driftwood, embodies everything the concept stands for.
The 21-acre destination brewery only uses its own well water, and its grains and malt are Texas-grown. Additionally, Vista brewing gives its spent grain to nearby Double J Ranch...
The aforementioned well water is the key ingredient, imparting dry and elegant taste that perfectly highlights the essence of the region. You never know exactly what will be on draft when you show up, as the selection is ever-changing, but it's always vast and varied to accommodate a wide range of palates.
Pair your brew with a farm-to-table meal crafted with only the freshest seasonal ingredients (including produce from Vista's on-site vegetable farm). From local cheese boards to refreshing salads to delicious cheeseburgers, there's something for everyone. Don't miss their weekly Sunday brunch!
Enjoy your food and beverages on the sprawling outdoor patio while being serenaded by live music. In our humble opinion, this is the definition of perfection.
Vista also has a satellite tasting room in San Antonio. For more information about Vista Brewing, including current hours of operation, a list of on-tap beers, and a food menu, please visit the official Vista Brewing website or Facebook page.
