Groovy Sundays at South Austin Brewing


Press release from South Austin Brewing:
South Austin Brewing hosts an open house called Groovy Sunday, featuring tours of the brewery, live music, food trailers, fun and games. Most Sundays, from 3-7pm. SABC is located near South Congress, at 415 East Saint Elmo Lane, Unit 1D, 78745. There is no cover charge for Groovy Sunday, and beer tasting glasses and merchandise are for sale. Founder and Brewmaster Jordan Weeks worked for Hill Country Brewing in the late ‘90s. Inspired by Austin brewer Pierre Celis’ Belgian ales, Weeks produces two flagship ales: Golden Ale and Saison D’Austin. Austin’s finer beer stores, markets, pubs, and restaurants host their keg taps and sell 750ml wire-corked bottles. SABC will produce seasonal and specialty beers in months to come. Christopher Oglesby produces Groovy Sundays. Oglesby is the author of the award-winning book about Texas musicians “Fire in the Water, Earth in the Air,” and is associated with many of Austin’s more notorious musicians: “I believe in celebrating local artists. Groovy Sunday is a great way for tourists and visitors to enjoy authentic South Austin culture, and for Austin folk to celebrate local handcrafted beer, food, and music.” South Austin Brewing Company celebrated its Grand Opening in February 2012, an event which drew media attention for hundreds of attendees who arrived to sample Austin’s newest craft brewery and enjoy Texas music. "South Austin Brewing Company was a great partner to join forces with for its opening in February,” says Eric Silverstein, founder of local food trailers Peached Tortilla and Yume’ Burger who served food during the opening event. “They drew an incredible crowd with a never-ending line. We plan to be back at SABC to serve at future events." Other food trailers scheduled for Groovy Sundays include: Be More Pacific, Chi’Lantro, Double Trouble BBQ, Best Wurst, and Belgian Waffle Company. Groovy Sunday schedule is available on SABC’s website: www.southaustinbrewing.com
