I'll admit it. One of my favorite things to do is sit down with a friend and have a quality drink. My favorite drink is beer, preferably Lonestar unless I want to get fancy and order a Dos Equis with lime. Or if I'm feeling extra celebratory, I'll have a vodka and cranberry. It's all about the company and the atmosphere, and, of course, the delicious taste in my mouth while I discuss animal rights activism and the future of vegan eating in America. These topics are my favorite to discuss and I want to meet more people who, like me, enjoy a nice drink while we talk about things that matter.

Meet Austin Vegan Drinks. A project of VegAustin.com and Compassion Over Killing, Austin Vegan Drinks is a social crowd of like-minded people who are either longtime vegans, vegetarians, or people who are just a little veg-curious! Whatever your reason for caring is, Austin Vegan Drinks is about having good times and doing a little networking while you're at it. We want Austin to know how the veg-friendly community is growing like tasty fields of malted barley.

Join us for our first event on Thursday, January 7 at the Ginger Man (301 Lavaca) from 7-9PM! RSVP by clicking here or by emailing me at Daniela@VegAustin.com. Feel free to bring your business cards, favorite recipes, or anything else you'd like to share. We'll have fantastic door prizes, such as vegan chocolates from Sjaak's, and more...

Oh, and drink specials for the evening include $3 specialty bottled beers. I might just order a Real Ale, which happens to be vegan-friendly. Check out Barnivore to find out if your booze is vegan!

See you on Thursday, January 7 at Ginger Man! Cheers to VegAustin and all our supporters for making this possible!

That is rockin' good news that it was such a successful event.  Chris and I were so bummed that she was too sick to go!  Next time...

Thanks to AFA's help for getting the word out about Austin Vegan Drinks! We had a really successful first event, with about 30 attendees, lots of free prizes and vegan pizza! I hope you'll make it to our next one in February, location TBA.

If you have been thinking about getting more active with Action for Animals but want to get to know us over a beer first this is your perfect opportunity.  :)  We would love to see you there!
