Come celebrate an authentically Austin pairing of champions: prize-winning bourbons from Milam & Greene Whiskey and GRAMMY Award-winning artist Ray Benson! This uniquely Austin experience brings together Benson, front man of the Western swing band Asleep at the Wheel, and Marsha Milam, the 2023 Master Brewer of the Year and founder of Milam & Greene Whiskey Distillery, for a one-of-kind experience. This fun evening will highlight some of the best of Central Texas, including catering by the iconic Hoover’s Cooking. Soak up the Austin vibes as you sip on craft cocktails showcasing Milam & Greene and hear directly from the creator and brewmaster herself. You will also enjoy a lively and insightful conversation with Benson about the Austin Music Scene—past and present— and Milam will share about her other fascinating careers as an author and music event promoter. Benson will play a couple acoustic songs before everyone enjoys a special menu created by Hoover Alexander. Don’t miss this opportunity to raise a glass to the award-winning music, food, and drinks that make Austin so uniquely special.
