Austin also hosts a variety of micro-breweries and distilleries. You might have heard of Tito's Handmade Vodka and Deep Eddy. We are also the home of hair-guru Paul Mitchell's much loved Patron Tequila! The very best margaritas are on almost every corner, but for a real treat, ask for a Mexican Martini! Or try a local beer, like 512 IPA.
While visiting Austin, be sure to check out the local wineries, famous for their mellow Hill Country vintages. The mild climate and alkaline soil breed exceptional grapes, so it's a no-brainer that Texas wines are making a statement. You can drop in to many of them to sample their wares, pet the alpacas, and buy a case or two. Or three.
Many visitors to Austin enjoy the local shopping scene. From hand-made western boots to custom-tailored blue jeans, Austin has it all. Crawl the numerous vintage shops on the East Side, or swank away the day in the Capital Area designer shops.
If Nature is your scene, you can't go wrong with the beautiful Hill Country background. Stunning vistas, lots of lakes and rivers, world-class hiking, and more await you in Austin, Texas.
