There are tons of things to do in Dripping Springs!

Dripping Springs is a suburb 30 minutes Southwest of Austin, Texas. You’ll never run out of things to do in Dripping Springs, read on and find some fun!

 

Twisted X Brewery

This weekend HefeFest starts August 4th at our brewery! A summer celebration of cool and refreshing cloudy wheat beer, perfect to quench your thirst in the August heat. We have a limited amount of authentic German Hefeweizen glassware with our logo we will be selling for $12 + one pour of the four Hefeweizens available. All Hefe's are fermented with a different strain of yeast. Honey Weizen – made with Austin local wildflower honey – light blonde color – aroma of banana and cloves, slightly spicy (clove) taste and fruit with a dry finish but the honey flavor lingers in aftertaste. Cloudy! Bavarian Hefeweizen – Traditional Southern German hefeweizen cloudy wheat beer – 50% wheat/50% barley malt. Fermented with an authentic German Hefeweizen yeast that leaves a slightly spicy taste (slight clove). Very smooth and refreshing. Finishes dry. RoggenBier – Hefe beer made with Rye Malt instead of Wheat. (50%rye, 50% barley). Spicy (slight clove) and slight citrus flavors, refreshing with a dry finish. Guava/HaferBier – Hefe made with Oat Malt (Oat = Hafer in German) instead of wheat (50% Oat/50% barley). Fermented with our Kolsch yeast. A creamy mouthfeel and smooth body, slight nuttiness (no nuts used). Subtle flavors of guava fruit round out the taste which ends with a refreshing dry finish. Only at our tasting room at the brewery in Dripping Springs! . . . #hefefest #TwistedX #TexasGood #craftbeer #craftbrewery #TXcraftbeer #craftbrew #drinklocal #drinkcraftbeer

Your bucket list of things to do in Dripping Springs should include a pint at the Twisted X Brewery! You can choose from a small batch craft beer of their Mexican style lagers only available in the tasting room. Or get a flight and pick your favorite! Frequent visitors rave about the Chupahopra, an IPA, which is also available at stores. The Tasting Room is open Thursday through Sunday.

 

Solstice Gardens

Solstice Gardens specializes in yard art and unique plants native to the Dripping Springs area. It’s worth a trip, though, even if you aren’t in the market for something to take home. Simply taking a stroll through their unique gardens is one of the most relaxing things to do in Dripping Springs. Closed Mondays.

 

Deep Eddy Vodka Distillery

Cheers to a trip to Deep Eddy Vodka Distillery. Stop by their tasting room and try their award winning vodkas. Whether you’re looking for a tasting flight or a specialty cocktail, they’ve got you covered! Unfortunately, this is one of the things to do in Dripping Springs you can only catch 4 days a week. That’s because it’s only open Thursday through Sunday.

 

Hamilton Pool

One of the most magical things do to do in Dripping Springs is to take a dip in Hamilton Pool! This preserve has an amazing natural pool and grotto formed when the dome of an underground river collapsed thousands of years ago. The water is breathtaking, but as it is natural, sometimes bacteria levels get so high swimming isn’t allowed. Check before you go! Advance reservations are required and can be made here.
