Over the weekend, my wife and i celebrated 11 years of marriage by ditching the kids with their grandparents and venturing out into the Central Texas hill country to take in some breweries we'd not been to before. Out of the bunch, my favorite was the relatively new (2 years old)
Acopon Brewing in Dripping Springs. Country meets goth in the best way possible. I enjoyed everything i tried, but the brew that hit me in all the right spots was the Old Pounder, a 5.4% ABV old style ale and variation of an ESB. Pouring a copperish brown with a white head, the beer smells of malts and notes of toffee and chocolate. The flavor combines said malt with some biscuit notes and some subtle chocolate vibes. Delicious. I'm going to have make the drive back out there again and soon.
Visit the
brewer.
