Austin Beer & Hymns

Well, we drink beer and sing hymns together. It's a pretty simple concept, but there is something meaningful about coming together as a community to celebrate and sing our lungs out. That's why we are meeting at a local brewery. Local beer, local people, famous hymns.

Strange Land Brewery has been kind enough to offer themselves as a location for the first (of hopefully many) Beer and Hymns nights, and like any tap room worth it's salt you can feel comfortable drinking as much or as little as you find appropriate (including not all!). They have 14 beers on tap, each better than the last, but there's no judgement here, either for your drinking habits (water is fine - and designated drivers are even better) or for your singing voice.

Our goal is to sing some of the most well-known, famous hymns from across Christian traditions. The hope is that anyone who has been in churches, had friends who went to church, or just saw a church in a movie once would be able to follow along and participate. Lyrics will be provided. It's not about trying to teach anything or prove any one way of thinking correct - it's about sharing something as a group and having a natural connection between us all. No worries if you aren't a Christian, or aren't someone who feels comfortable in a church. You are welcome here!
