like to hear it, here it goes ... weird vice, not exactly snotty but not very laid back .. . 4 house beers, but no growlers .. . interesting food, got a cheese+ meat platter- the liver pate was amazing, also had a local austin cheese which was nice .. . you have to order at the ordering station, which when this place gets busy, must truly truly suck .. darts on the side and a really nice patio .. pretty cool place, i would go back for sure..

Uber-hipster crowd that seems to revel in the fact that they’re patronising a "co-op" (hippie speak for "diluted capitalism"). Not my scene at all. Fake people with fake concerns drinking average beer.

Stopped by during RBWG 2012. A nice place, a bit hipster-ish, and quite small. When we stopped in the place was SLAMMED.

Our service was as quick as it could be. They have weird system where you have to stand in line to get your beers or food.

The selection seemed good, but I didn’t get anything except their brewed beers, all of which were solid or better.

Average to slightly high beer prices.

Overall, stop in if you can. They had some really tasty beers on tap if you don’t mind waiting in line and then hanging out in a packed place.

Nice place that was completely packed when we stopped for dinner during RBWG. We decided to just have a few beers and leave. Good solid beers.

Open bar area with outside seating. Very good beer selection, all the beers were solid or better. Hard place to find with your gps. Parking could be at a premium later in the day. Staff was friendly and helpful. We got there at about 5pm by the time we left at 6pm there was a line starting to form at the counter and it was filling up. Nice size samples on the sampler. In my opinion a must stop in Austin.

This is a pretty cool concept. Alot of local beers including there own. Not a huge fan of theres I must admit... the food was pretty good. Nice ambiance... the help ranged from great to marginal. I’d go back when in Austin.

Pros: Good food Small selection of guest taps, but quality more than makes up for quantity Growler fills (even from guest taps) Employees paid living wage with benefits, so no tips are accepted Cons: Line to order can get long, even on off nights House brews are still developing Little on the expensive side Overall: A good place to meet up and have a beer and an even better place to fill your growler.

Alright this place rocks. Stopped in while on vacation. It’s located in a nice new complex in a very trendy locale. I had to be educated on the Co-op portion of their business, and no matter what I tried they wouldn’t accept tips. The place was absolutely packed when we got there, and I had to play a little game of tetris with the stools in order to get a seat for my girl and I. I tried all their beers they brew and most were very tasty. I was impressed as to how well they are doing while still being fairly new. They also had a large bottle list and several other local beers on tap. They were nice enough to allow me to purchase samples of whatever beers I wanted so I got plenty! The food was pretty good, I had the bowl of red and added fritos to make frito pie. Cool stop, will definitely return.

This place has the novelty of being a CoOp, so their employees are paid a fair wage and thus you don’t have to tip (cheapskate). They have great food and offer a varied, though not large tap list, and have their own in-house beer. I loved their Waterloo. Nice staff, but unfortunately they do get crowded really quickly and have limited seating. Overall I thought it was a great place for some good Austin local brews and some out of the ordinary in-house beers as well. And they offer growlers!
