Save the World Brewing Co: A New Chapter for a Marble Falls Original

There’s a certain feeling you get when you pull into the gravel lot at :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}—something warm, familiar, and distinctly Hill Country. Maybe it’s the hum of conversation drifting off the patio, or the Belgian-yeast notes sneaking through the taproom door, or the way the late afternoon sun settles over the blue hills just beyond the brewery. Whatever it is, Save the World has long been one of Marble Falls’ most beloved local haunts. And now, under the stewardship of a new couple, this community favorite is stepping confidently into its next chapter.

A Legacy Handed Down

Though Save the World began under the guidance of its physician-founders, its story has grown beyond its origins. The new owners—whose love for craft beer and community drew them to the brewery—are building on that legacy in their own way. They didn’t just purchase a business; they inherited a place that had already become woven into the daily rhythm of Marble Falls.

For years, locals associated Save the World with purpose-driven brewing and the belief that good beer could make a real difference. The new owners have embraced that philosophy with open arms, carrying forward the brewery’s philanthropic heartbeat while putting their own mark on the experience. Their leadership is characterized by an easy hospitality, a dedication to craftsmanship, and a love for the people who walk through their doors.

Raising a Glass to Excellence

The brewery didn’t just remain a local gem—it also earned national acclaim in 2024, when Forbes published an article naming its IPA as the “world’s best hazy IPA” in the U.S. Open Beer Championship. The piece, authored by Forbes contributor Erik Ofgang, highlighted how Save the World’s award-winning brew stood out in one of craft beer’s most competitive categories.

Specifically, the beer in question—Chasing Broncos IPA—won a gold medal in the New England/“hazy” IPA category of the U.S. Open competition, with one of the strongest fields of entries in craft brewing. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3} The recognition not only elevated the brewery’s status among enthusiasts and industry insiders, but also put Marble Falls on the map in a big way.

Craftsmanship in Every Pour

At Save the World, the brewing philosophy remains rooted in tradition—Belgian-inspired beers made with patience, precision, and a respect for time-honored techniques. The new owners have continued that commitment while bringing in subtle enhancements, from seasonal specialties to small-batch experimental brews that showcase their creativity.

Visitors can still find the beloved staples: bright and effervescent saisons, malty dubbels with notes of caramel and spice, and bold quadrupels that invite slow sipping. But depending on when you visit, you might also discover a limited-release brew inspired by Hill Country fruits, or a twist on a Belgian classic infused with local ingredients. The brewery’s tap list feels both familiar and freshly inspired—a nod to the past with a playful glance toward the future.

And just as important as the beer itself is the experience of enjoying it. The taproom team pours each glass with genuine pride, offering insight into brewing methods or recommending pairings from whatever food truck is parked outside. Whether you’re a craft beer novice or a seasoned aficionado, you’ll find someone behind the bar ready to guide you through the story behind each brew.

A Home for Community

If Save the World has a secret ingredient, it’s the way it brings people together. The brewery has always served as a gathering place—a backdrop for birthday celebrations, quiet afternoons with a book, post-lake hangouts, and long, laughter-filled evenings under string lights. That spirit remains as strong as ever under the new ownership.

The expansive patio is often the setting for the best moments: families spreading out across picnic tables, friends huddled around flights of beer, and dogs lounging lazily at their owners’ feet. There’s a slower rhythm here, the kind that invites you to linger a little longer than you planned. Food trucks rotate through with everything from tacos to wood-fired pizza, and live musicians frequently fill the atmosphere with a soundtrack as warm as the summer breeze.

The new owners have leaned into these traditions while expanding the brewery’s community footprint. Charity events, themed nights, and seasonal festivals keep the calendar lively. Whether it’s a holiday celebration with local vendors or a fundraising event that channels the brewery’s charitable roots, Save the World has a way of making everyone feel like they’re part of something meaningful.

A Future Rooted in Purpose

Even as Save the World Brewing Co enters this new era, the founding ideals still echo through the taproom. The new ownership continues to support charitable causes, ensuring that the spirit of giving remains a cornerstone of the brewery’s identity. Their vision is one of growth and connection—expanding offerings, deepening community ties, and keeping Save the World a place where good beer and good intentions meet.

It’s a future built on gratitude: gratitude for the founders who poured the first batches, for the locals who shaped its character, and for the countless visitors who make the brewery part of their Hill Country adventures. With this new couple guiding its next steps, Save the World feels both renewed and rooted, familiar yet quietly evolving.
