Beer Engines or Cask Ales in Austin?

[Endust]

since being in PA (which has a surprisingly prolific craft brewery scene, despite their bizarre booze laws) i've discovered cask ales and beer engines.

a quick google suggest that there are beer engines at ginger man and opal divine in Austin, but are there any other places in austin?

I haven't seen a beer engine anywhere in the States. (I'm talking about the hand pumping to draw the beer.) I think that the only place that I saw one was in The Crown Pub in Belfast.

And Austin isn't that close to Belfast.

I could swear that the Gingerman in Houston (and maybe even Austin) used to poor St. Arnold's Cask Conditioned from a beer engine.

Beer engines are quite common in Austin (definitely Gingerman), but it's all in the timing.
Most places will run cask ale in the FallWinter.

GingerMan has one with St. Arnold's in it. Opal Divine's on 6th has one at the upstairs bar but I've never seen them actually have anything in it. Bitter End (RIP) had one but was kinda irregular about having anything in it. Lovejoys used to but I haven't been there in a long time. Draught House has two and almost always has some homebrews in it. I could have sworn NXNW has one, but I may be wrong.

Cask ales are allsome.
