These 3 startups are probably drinking better beer than you

It’s no secret that Austinites love their beer. It's Friday and there's no better time to reach for a much-deserved cold one, so we caught up with three different startup offices to see what they had on tap. Here’s what they had to say:

Answers from Patrick Killoren, Marketing Manager at Resignation Brewery
 
What type of beer do you currently have on tap? We have our own brewery (Resignation Brewery), so we only have our beer on tap. We'll sometimes throw in a local Austin beer like Live Oak Hefe, but right now we have: KCCO Black Lager, KCCO Gold Lager, KCCO White Wheat (Texas Only!). The White Wheat is a huge favorite at our office right now. It's an amazingly sessionable wheat beer that has a clean citrus finish. Think a Blue Moon with more meyer lemon than orange.  
 
When do you drink all these awesome beers? We have two office bars (a full bar upstairs) that people congregate at more than I will admit.  Most Fridays we head to the main bar around 4 p.m. to get the weekend started.

Answers from Ryan Abelman, Project Manager & resident beer guru
 
What type of beer do you currently have on tap? The current favorite beer of the team is "Yellow Rose", a single hopped IPA made by Lone Pint brewery, which is somewhat local (Right around Houston, TX). We always have a few bottles in our fridge. Today we have 2 beers on tap: Hops and Grain Brewery, a pale mosaic and Live Oak Brewery, a hefeweizen. Both these beers are made here in Austin, TX. 
 
Do you always pour Texas beers? I am a huge believer in drinking local and supporting small, local craft breweries. 
 
Are you hiring? Yes! Currently our top priorities are Optimization Directors (which is a really unique role), Project Managers and Analysts.

Answers from Kristen Chandler Largent, Program Manager 

What type of beer do you currently have on tap? We only provide local-to-Texas beers: Live Oak, Austin Beer Works, and Shiner are favorites of the office -- but as long it comes from the Lone Star state then it's fair game!
