No arguments here: USA Today published a list today of some of the best bars in America for beer lovers, and Banger�s Sausage House & Beer Garden is sitting pretty on it.

The publication had the following to say about this beloved Rainey Street spot: �There�s no shortage of cool beer joints in Austin, Texas, but Banger�s tops the list with craft beer, great food and a massive outdoor seating space. This beer garden has a seriously impressive beer resume. With the third largest draft system in the state, Banger�s has 104 brews on draft and another 50 in cans and bottles. In addition to great beer, Banger�s offers 30 house-made sausages.�

In the story, writer Anne Roderique-Jones notes that drinking has become �a sophisticated pastime,� with lots of natural curiosity and the desire to share as just two reasons why craft beer, in particular, has caught on so much.

It�s not hard to see why Banger�s made the cut � for having as many beers as it does, the bar does a solid job of making sure the bartenders and waitstaff are well-educated about craft beers and can bring you out a perfect pint. Banger�s also hosts regular events like Mega Mutt Monday, Smoke Out Saturdays and special firkin tappings.

The article also featured watering holes like Bob�s Bar in Columbus, Ohio, and Bay Street Biergarten in Charleston, South Carolina.
