"After closing its original southeast location in February, the brewery is reopening in the Govalle neighborhood at 730 Shady Lane with a Saturday, July 9 launch party (noon–10 p.m., DJ). The new site functions as both a taproom and production facility housed in a 1950s RC Cola bottling building, remodeled by OPA Design Studio to respect and repurpose much of the original infrastructure and design and featuring a mural of the Austin cityscape by artist Mike Johnston. The taproom will serve the regular beer lineup plus three new releases — including the Eastside Pilsner — and will host Burro Cheese Kitchen as an on-site food truck offering grilled cheese sandwiches. The operation was founded in 2017 by Mark Phillipe after years of homebrewing following his service in the U.S. Marine Corps." - Polly Anna Rocha
