Thirsty Planet Brewing Company: Saturday Tours

Written by Mandy Spivey | October 27, 2014

I like to visit local eateries and bars as much as the next Austinite, but what I have really been enjoying lately are all of the open taprooms and breweries that offer tours during the weekends. This past weekend was a perfect time to grab a spot at the bar and see what Thirsty Planet Brewing Company had to offer.

Already an ardent fan of their Thirsty Goat Amber Ale, when I got word of their trio of tours on Saturday, I reserved a few spots on their website and made a hearty breakfast the day of my visit. In my time in the beer world, I’ve learned a thing or two, and having a big breakfast before tour time is one of them.

Lake Travis Area Neighborhood Guide: Lake Pointe on Lake Austin

Written by Todd Hower | October 22, 2014

Tucked away neatly between Bee Caves Rd. and Lake Austin is the Lake Pointe subdivision. Home to scenic streets, varying home styles and impressive views of the Hill Country and Lake Austin, this small Lake Travis area community has been a mainstay in the greater Austin area since the mid-90s. Located just 12 short miles from Austin, Lake Pointe is enjoyed by many that call this Lake Travis community home including families, working professionals, and retirees.

History

Development began on Lake Pointe subdivision in 1994, and in the following years most of the lots were built out as well. There are a handful of lots still available for custom home building, which can be found closer to the Lake Austin side of the neighborhood and directly across from Steiner Ranch.
