South Austin’s Meanwhile Brewing hit the ground running when they opened in October 2020. The brewery’s 3.7-acre facility was an instant hit with locals and beer tourists, and accolades for Meanwhile’s beers quickly followed. Three years later, Meanwhile is one of Austin’s most popular and award-winning breweries. To celebrate, the brewery will be hosting a four-day fete featuring specialty food items, live music, activities for all ages, and some new collaboration beers.

The new brews will be accompanied by two hours of live afrobeat music from Austin supergroup Hard Proof beginning at 8:30 PM.
