Love all the outdoor space! Staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. The wood fire pizzas (I believe they only offer it on Saturday) were delicious, we had the brisket and pepperoni pizzas and it was the perfect amount to split between 4 people. Lovely gift shop, too! The wine is delicious and they have just about something for everyone including a stocked bar. Donkeys/mules and goats on the property are definitely a plus for the aesthetic. Will definitely be visiting often from now on!

Always feels like home! People are amazingly friendly, wine is always good and we love the option of the distillery! You have to have a pizza on Saturday and of course join the membership, so exciting to get my wine in! It'll become your cheers where everyone knows your name and you always have a good time, even on a bad day!

We drive into Austin quite a bit on 183 and finally decided to stop in when it was not over 100 degrees. Typical Texas winery decorations and gift shop, however "Distillery" was added to their location recently.
We gave the distillery a shot, or tasting. Of the 5 we tasted, none were remarkable. If you like that "moonshine" taste, this is for you. They've tried to infuse maple and peach into a couple of their distilled spirits, stir clear of those. The shop was okay, typical winery gag signs, towels, Pinterest type stuff. Quiet a few people were there enjoying

Having visited nearly every winery in central Texas, Thirsty Mule is my new favorite. Don’t judge the experience by the exterior: this is the best of “Texas Y’all” wineries, both friendly and unpretentious. Their on-site distillery offers non wine options, including whiskey tastings and mixed cocktails. Sunday included live music and Saturday, I’m told, offers wood fired pizza. The menu is deep with local wines, and the tasting is 4 options for $10. Absolute value. Perhaps the best review I can give though is how friendly the staff was when we walked in: warm hello and approachable intro

The only reason this winery deserves three stars in my book is because it is located semi-underground as it is built into the side of a cave.
You can get the feel of voyaging underground without having to pay an extortionist fee for this privilege. You will not be seeing the stalagmites and stalactites. Nor will you find a sleeping bat.
However, you can get a little buzzed and feel a lot of hometown love- although you might want to turn a blind eye (and ear) when they try to explain where their grape varietals are from, or when they try to up-sell you into their wine club.
Another neat feature

I came here for the first time over the weekend with some out-of-town guests. I did enjoy the bottle of wine I bought, but the employees were not very helpful. I don't know much about wine, so I asked them to pick out the closest wine to Pinot Noir as that's usually what I drink. Now I at least know the difference between white wine and red wine, and was surprised that their response was for me to order a white wine...
The ambience is decent, but they are limited on their indoor seating which is a shame because I'm sure more people would come and enjoy the live music.

Pretty bad wine. Nearly all of it. I can't bring myself to go back.
I've gone to most of the pre-2007 wineries in Central Texas.
One star for the building. The inside is really nicely laid out.
One star for the impromptu musicians giving the patrons a nice selection of sounds.
Zero stars for the uneducated staff. Seriously.....they rinsed my glass with water when going from white to red. NoOOOOOOO!!!! Don't do that!!! I guess I didn't believe that after several reviews condemning that action, they still did it. I would have protected my glass a little better.

After passing this winery on Highway 183 several times, my husband finally surprised me with a spur of the moment decision to stop. I was very curious about a central Texas winery that offers a Malbec. I was not disappointed. It is a dark inky glass with a nice strong spice. The finish is long and jammy. It is not the best Malbec I've ever had, but for a local Texas winery, I am impressed. The Malbec is what convinced me to purchase the membership. The Cabernet did not disappoint either.
The grounds are lovely and the underground tasting room is nice when it's not shoulder to shoulder

This winery opened up last week in Liberty HIll. A mere 18 minute drive north of Cedar Park, Thirsty Mule is bringing the wine country closer to home. The owners are the same owners as the popular Georgetown winery.
The building once was a home that was built in 1979 and before Thirsty Mule Owners got a hold of it, it sat empty for many years. The tasting room which is backed up to a cave is on a nice plot of land which backs up to a creek. The completely remodeled the building and now has a long bar, several tables for enjoying a glass of wine and a banquet room that can accommodate about 50
