About Slackers Brewing Co.
From Slackers Brewing Co.'s own website and its Google listing, read September 28, 2026.
Slackers Brewing Co. is a family-owned brewery in the Anderson Mill area of Austin. Its website says the taproom pours craft beer and craft coffee side by side, along with wine. Owners Derek and Haley named it Slackers to give hard-working people some well-earned time off.
The flagship lineup covers a lot of ground, from a Belgian-style blonde ale and a hazy IPA to a traditional West Coast IPA and a Kölsch. The brewery also keeps rotating beers, a guest cider and a few non-alcoholic options in the mix. Coffee stays on the menu right alongside the beer.
The website describes Slackers as a community space built for the whole family, with games, live music and room for making friends. It hosts vinyl nights, craft nights and casual Smash Bros. tournaments through the week, plus live music on Friday and Saturday nights. Private events and gatherings can be booked there too.
Slackers self-distributes its beer to bars and restaurants around Northwest Austin, Cedar Park and Round Rock, so you may spot it on tap elsewhere too. The brewery opened its doors in 2021, after Derek started homebrewing back in 2011.
