Whitestone Brewery
Whitestone Brewery is located in Cedar Park, a suburb just north of Austin. We went there for a friend’s wedding. A wedding at a brewery? Yes, indeed. This is also my 800th beer blog (!!!) so I figured a special occasion would be good for this one.
Brueggerhoff Bohemian Pilsner is one of the German variety. It’s crisp and clean with a nice hoppy finish. There’s a slight soapy thing but not enough to ruin the beer. Characteristic bready German malt lurks in the background too, This is a quality “light” beer.
Azakaunot IPA is one of those Northeast style IPAs that are super popular right now. It’s a glass full of hazy juice basically. Citrus and tropical flavors dominate though there’s a hint of pine and dank. This beer also has a super dry and sticky finish.
Boondoggle (which is a great word) is a brown ale that almost verges on porter/stout territory. This beer is very malty with a doughy and caramely character.
Aside from it being a fun wedding celebrating the union of two great people I liked the brewery itself a lot. Nothing I tried was bad. They know what they’re doing. The only problem is getting there from Austin is a bit too toll-roady.
