As everyone knows, I loves me some beer and Hi Sign Brewing more than delivers. Refreshing takes on classic styles in a fun, laid back environment makes for high spirited tastiness.

Remember the yearbook awards of high school? Best Dressed, Most Popular, cliches like that? I took the concept and applied it ACL Fest 2017 Fest with, hopefully, more original results. Click the pic to give it a whirl!

If I had an actual “beat” at the Austinot, it would be music. For the second year in a row, I pulled together a comprehensive guide of every local band playing Austin City Limits 2017. Complete with a Spotify playlist and videos, this guide is a fine way to discover a new favorite band. Click the pic below to give a read!

When Jamie and I first moved to Austin, the second beer spot we visited was a two-story spot on South Lamar. A few years later, it was the last place we had drinks at before discovering she was pregnant.
Needless to say, I have a connection with Red’s Porch, a chilled out hangout with solid food, great beer, and fun vibes. Read all about it by clicking the image below!

From Austin soul man to contestant on The Voice and everything in between, Nakia has become a staple of the local Austin music scene. Was great of fun interviewing him and checking out his show for the story!
