Boy howdy, that was a great beer social! It’s fair to say that was our most successful event for many reasons. If you like stats (and who doesn’t?), here’s the run-down on the event:
Attendance: 885 beer lovers
New Members: 62 total (Joining–31; Invested–31)
Kegs Floated: 8 (in 2.45 hours)
Fun: Turned up to 11!
Needless to say, it was great to see everyone there supporting Black Star. Having the train bring new folks to the future-site-of-the-brewpub was a large part of the success. Each time the new MetroRail pulled in to the Crestview Station, floods of co-op enthusiasts poured into our gates. Thanks to the 30+ volunteers that busted their butts to make sure we had a safe, productive, and fun beer social. Also, big ups to The Original Recipe Band for cranking out some jazzy tunes!
We hope to continue doing events like this while construction is going on, so stay tuned to our website for more information. In the meantime, we’re still seeking investments to finish funding this unique Austin venture. Go Black Star Co-op!
