Buford's Beer Garden is a brainchild of local entrepreneur, Brian "Bubba" Buford. With a passion for bringing people together and a love for craft beer, Bubba created a space that reflects Austin's laid-back, community-driven spirit. The beer garden is named after Bubba's grandfather, who was known for his love of good beer and good company.
