Are you an unrepentant beer snob coming to town for the Austin City Limits Festival? Sadly, your choices for craft beer on the festival grounds will be pretty limited, so follow this link for my recommendations on where to get the good stuff fairly close to Zilker Park (most notably, Uncle Billy's Brew & Que, a short walk away).(photo is copyright John Anderson; do NOT reprint without his permission.)

It's really a shame their food isn't better. Beer is great, food incredibly mediocre. I'm not sure whether they reheat their BBQ, but it has little smoke flavor to it.
To each his own, but I've always really enjoyed their BBQ. Sure, it's not Cooper's or Opie's, but I still think it's good.
A post on Reddit claims a deal with Budweiser prevents selling local beer. What a sham. :/

Well, not totally — Texas law requires events like this to allow at least one competing beer in, thus the Heineken. But otherwise, yes — Budweiser shells out big bucks as a sponsor, so they get to call the shots on beer sales.
