Monday, 28 May 2012: Memorial Day @ The Petrol Station

Posted by john | Meetings | Posted on May 28th, 2012

Raise a pint tonight in honor of those who have served our country and given the ultimate sacrifice. The Petrol Station is in the middle of construction on the kitchen and due to the holiday there will not be a food truck out tonight either, so hopefully you’ve had your fill of BBQ beforehand. See you at 985 Wakefield, in Garden Oaks, at 8 PM. Check out the latest beers on tap here.

Monday, 21 May 2012: Post ACBW Craft Beer at Liberty Station

Posted by mike | Meetings | Posted on May 21st, 2012

Tonight should be a great night for a craft beer, even a week after Craft Beer Week.  Is there a bad week for craft beer?  We didn’t think so, either. So stop by Liberty Station, 2101 Washington Ave, at 8 PM.  Their tap list has great variety for its size, and if you’re hungry, there’s probably a food truck outside (you are free to brown bag it as well).

Monday, 14 May 2012: El Gran Malo

Posted by john | Meetings | Posted on May 14th, 2012

El Gran Malo, at 2307 Ella Blvd. If you want to sample EGM’s great tacos, or you want to catch happy hour before it’s over, come by at 7 PM; if you’re just interested in the infused tequilas and good (albeit short) beer list, and don’t care about the cost, stop by at 8 PM. Salud!
