About Vista Brewing
Vista Brewing is a 21-acre destination brewery and restaurant in Driftwood, Texas, just outside Austin. Its website places it at the gateway to the Central Texas Wine Trail. The brewpub has a beer garden, a farm and ranch views of the Hill Country.
Co-founders Karen and Kent Killough built Vista around hyper-local food and drink. Its website says a 16-hive apiary on the farm supplies honey for the plates and glasses.
The kitchen serves a full food menu, and outside food is not allowed. Along with its own beer, Vista pours Texas wines, Texas cider, wine-based cocktails and non-alcoholic drinks. You can also take beer to go.
Outdoor rooms under the oak trees give groups room to spread out. The website says there is typically live music on Fridays and Sundays. More people have reviewed Vista Brewing on Google than any other brewery, taproom or beer shop in Driftwood on this site.
