A Brooklyn Beer Dinner in Austin

Olivia, Austin, TX

Brooklyn bands are always appearing in Austin. Now it’s our Brewmaster’s turn. On October 15 at 7pm, Garrett Oliver will be leading a beer dinner at Olivia, the Mediterranean-with-a-Southern-spin-spot that Bon Appétit named one of America’s 10 best new restaurants of 2009.

As guests inevitably enjoy the menu, they will have the opportunity to meet and talk with Garrett as he makes his customary rounds of the room. He will speak at the beginning of the dinner and very briefly between courses to inform diners about the beers and the pairings.

$75 per person. For reservations please call 512.804.2700 or email jerry@olivia-austin.com
