A weekly book swap event at Slackers Brewing Co. where attendees can bring a book to trade and enjoy a casual atmosphere with a beer.
Slackers Brewing Co. holds its Slackers Book Swap at its Austin taproom on Tuesday, August 18, from 5 PM to 6 PM. It's a weekly fixture, so if you miss this one, there's another one the following Tuesday. The premise is as simple as it gets: bring a book, take a book, and stay for a beer.
That's the whole thing. You bring in a title you're finished with, leave it on the table, and pick out something new to take home. It's free, chill, and open to all ages, so it works whether you're coming with a group or just stopping in on your way home from work. If you're in the mood to mingle, you can hang around and argue over plot twists; if you'd rather keep to yourself, you can quietly trade titles and sip solo. Either way, you walk out with a new read.
If you're looking for something a bit larger, the brewery also runs a monthly swap meet on the last Saturday of every month. That's a separate thing from the weekly Tuesday session, so you've got two ways to cycle through your bookshelves depending on when you're free. The Tuesday swap is the one to keep on your radar for a quick mid-week trade, while the Saturday meet is the bigger monthly version.
