Hi Sign Brewing — Restaurant in Austin

Solid brewery, open interior, and large shaded outdoor picnic area.

Friendly and welcoming staff, with a mellow and low key atmosphere. Several games to entertain your group and plenty of seating for larger parties.

No food is served, but they have food trucks on some weekends.

Most importantly the beer!

Max Stout: -Light mouth feel, quite effervescent for a stout with notes of coffee, finishing with a strong peaty and hops closer.

Marżen Lager: Red hued lager that is incredibly drinkable, light malt and coppery notes reminiscent of an Amber Ale (3/4 of the groups fav).

Woodsen IPA: Light cider-like color, straight forward IPA good amount of hop finish. Best very cold!

Little Navigator IPA: My Favorite! Unfiltered look, creamy hue, but crisp and palate pleasing. Hop taste isn’t over powering and one pint is just not enough.

Astronaut IPA: Strong 9.5% ABV, without the high alcohol content taste. An IPA lovers dream. Crisp, yet complex and buzz worthy! 😜

Barrel Aged Barely Wine: This one just missed the mark for us. Far too sweet even for a barely wine. Tasted like candy and finished with an awkward indescribable feel in the back part of our mouth.

Barrel Aged Anniversary Stout: Very drinkable and light for a stout, but tons of flavor! Stone fruit notes and chocolate add to its complexity. The increased effervescence made it quite enjoyable as well.

Shamus Irish Red: Gorgeous Red Ale in appearance only. It was quite boring in flavor, but I am sure many others enjoy it as it is a brewery staple. Just not our cup of tea, or should I say...

This brewery has wide open spaces, both inside and outside, making it a very pleasant beer drinking experience. Inside you will find custom made carved wood benches with lots of seating, plus a selection of games. Outside is additional bench seating, in a beautiful green space filled with lovely oak trees strung with colorful hammocks.

Considering it is only their second week open, the have a nice variety with their six beers, likely something to satisfy every beer taste. I'm not a huge red beer fan so I was nicely surprised with the Fiddler Irish Red's subtle hops and easy drinkability (yes, I did make up that word). The Blood Orange Coffee stout is a decent stout but the blood orange doesn't really come through (it is a difficult task for a fruit to compete with the stronger coffee flavor of a stout). The stalwart Astronaut Double IPA was a well balanced IPA with grassy and fruit forward notes, and is a steal at $6 for the pint, given...

Delicious beer and great atmosphere. Checked out Hi Sign for the first time on Father's Day with my family. Absolutely loved it. It has inside and outdoor areas. Out back has hammocks, picnic tables and a food truck. Inside is large open space with picnic style tables. There is a chalkboard wall with chalk that the kids can have fun with and even little kid sized picnic tables. And oversized Jenga and Connect 5 games for kids or adults. They just released a new beer called Johnny 5 and it was so yummy. Please make Johnny 5 a mainstay!! I also learned that the owner is a Marine Veteran and so am I, which makes me all the more happy to drink all their beer! Our bartender for the day was Bryce and he was super friendly and poured our beer with a smile. Couldn't ask for a...
