Whiskey, Tango, Fox (trot)

At 12 Fox Beer Co., every pint has a story—and every visit builds community.
“12 Foxtrot” is the U.S. Army designation for a Combat Engineer—the role that trained Joe, our founder, to clear minefields and work with explosives. That path took him from Fort Hood, Texas to Bosnia, and eventually to the legendary beer town of Bamberg, Germany—where everything changed.
It was there that Joe discovered a deep appreciation for traditional European brewing: clean, intentional, and rooted in craft. What started as curiosity turned into years of hands-on “research and development,” shaping a philosophy we still follow today:
Keep it simple. Make it exceptional.
At 12 Fox, we brew with rainwater and thoughtfully crafted recipes to create beers that are approachable, balanced, and quietly complex—true to old-world tradition, with a Texas spirit.
But 12 Fox is more than a brewery.
It’s the home of Fireside Chat Support Network—a growing community where veterans, first responders, and civilians come together to share stories, build friendships, and support one another around the table.
Whether you’re here for a cold beer, a live music night, a community event, or a meaningful conversation—you’ll find something real waiting for you.
Tucked away off Fitzhugh Road in the heart of Dripping Springs, 12 Fox is a destination brewery just outside Austin where you can:
Relax under the shade of our biergarten trees
Gather with friends in our cozy taproom
Enjoy live music, food trucks, and weekend events
Connect with a community that feels like home
There’s a place here for everyone—whether you want to unwind quietly or be part of something bigger.
Family. Country. Freedom. Connection.
We can’t wait to meet you.
