Clark brothers Patrick and Forrest and their best friend from high school Marco Rodriguez started brewing in 2008. After winning numerous awards in brewing competitions, the three decided to dive in and open
“the brewery of their dreams”. They eventually quit their jobs and pooled their savings, and with help from outside inventors, opened in April 2015. Many breweries usually locate themselves in industrial parks on the outskirts of town. Zilker Brewing Company, meanwhile, is on East 6
th, which makes it an ideal urban craft brewery and taproom in
“the heart of East Austin”. They currently have a lineup of four
"mainstays" and about 15 seasonal brews. To sample their delicious beers, proceed to the brewery's
“sleek and industrial” taproom. The designers meant it as a place to bring the community together.
