Austin Beer Week is just two weeks away (event listings are posted NOW on the website). Draught House has a pretty full week. They are starting it all of with their Anniversary Party and following that with all this. If you can make it to only one event, obviously come see us on Wednesday (Duh!). Actually I’d skip our event and go to that Jester King one on Thursday:
