A real music club

by Samanthasam

This is the best place to see non-douchey bands in Austin. No B.S., no posers, just a good little bar with cold beer a kickass bands.

excellent live venue, employees are actually werewolves

by dingalingdong

Put on your drinking shoes and throw some silver bullets in your pistol, because a night at beerland is sure to include two things: one hell of a good time, and inevitable werewolf attack. The bloody marys are outstanding, and the werewolves are fierce and bloodthirsty.

• Pros: easy going atmosphere
• Cons: werewolves

Cheap cover plus cheap beer plus interesting acts equals garage-band heaven.

In Short
Beerland somehow manages a warehouse-yet-cozy atmosphere. Bands play in front of concrete walls, so you feel--and it sounds--like you're in someone's garage. Co-owner (former manager of the Bates Motel) Randall Stockton's passion for music is reflected in cheap covers, and regular performances by Austin's best punk, metalcore and garage rock. Beerland offers a full bar and drafts including Real Ale, Live Oak. Some brews, including Lone Star and Pearl, go for cheap.

Fun fun fun

I love this place. The bartenders are really friendly and you can tell that everyone who works there really cares about the bar and their customers.

• Pros: staff, crowd, shows

Somebody said, "Bring back Liberty Lunch!" Somebody else said, "Bring back Bates Motel!" Still a third person shouted, "I'm gay! And it's okay!" Well, somebody listened, to the first two, and that somebody, well, that somebody was actually two people: Randall and Donya. And they have total punk-rock credibility for transforming and empty cinder-block space into the best small club to see hard rock in Austin. They've embued the place with their own legacies, and it shows.

• Pros: almost everything
• Cons: tricky acoustics

Beerland is ROCK heaven!

by OttoBackroom

I finally got to Beerland last week and saw The Punkaroo's. Randall is bad ass, the beer cheap, the Jager cold! I can't wait to catch the DIRTY SWEETS there some day.
