8th Annual Brew-BQ!
Back when DEBC was just a dream, we threw a small party in a parking lot near the brewery to get to know our neighbors and gain some feedback on our first batches of beer. That party was Brew-BQ and we’ve kept the tradition going ever since. The neighborhood has grown tremendously since we set our sights on Deep Ellum, and our brewery has grown in ways we couldn’t have imagined. But we’ll always have our little Brew-BQ – a day of BBQ, beer, music, games, and community. We hope you’ll join us as we celebrate our “other anniversary.”
