About Texas Ale Trail

Texas Ale Trail is the listing for the Austin Ale Trail, a brewery passport program for the Austin area. The passport covers over 50 local breweries, pubs, bottle shops and cideries. It comes from Flights with Friends, a company that began as a podcast about sharing a flight of beers.
