ATHLETIC BAR POP-UP: CLOSING SOON Remember when we told that the fastest-growing beer company in the nation (that also happens to be nonalcoholic), was launching their first bar and fitness pop-up in Downtown ATX. Well, they did, just a couple of weeks ago, and the popular place has more than 2,000 square feet of space equipped with a full beer bar, fitness gym, retail shop, and community gathering area, and it’s open until Sun., Sept. 26 – and the fitness classes are available for local to enjoy for free.

FOOD ACCESS RESOURCES FROM SFC We have to admit it’s getter better, but we’ve still got a ways to go in dealing with this pandemic. The Sustainable Food Center has put together a thorough compilation of food access resources for Central Texans, ranging from farmers’ markets to CSAs to delivery options and everything in between, so you can ensure that healthy food stays on your table. And if you’re able to contribute they’re accepting online donations, which support farmers and low-income families facing food insecurity. Get all the details on their website.

EBERLY’S CREME BRÛLÉE FOR GIRLS EMPOWERMENT NETWORK Eberly is honoring the nonprofit Girls Empowerment Network by donating $1 to the organization with every creme brûlée sold. This is a good thing from the get-go, we believe, and who doesn’t occasionally want a dessert like this? But, come to find out that pastry chef Sarah Seghi has created a Peach Leaf Creme Brûlée with Rum Soaked Pound Cake, Lemon Creme Fraiche, and Preserved Cherry Jam, and we’re considering buying maybe a dozen of them every single day. Note: We’re told that this Eberly/GEN partnership is ongoing, so we may be in trouble.
