Fall return of Astronomy on Tap, Josh Moore at Mountains Walking
Calling local stargazers – and especially the thirsty ones! Mountains Walking Brewery will host Astronomy on Tap x Chandra 20 on Monday, November 4th. Sponsored by the Montana Science Center, the event will celebrate the 20th anniversary of NASA’s Chandra x-ray telescope. Dr. Angela Des Jardins and Dr. Anne Lohfink will speak about how x-ray astronomy is used in space to see black holes, supernovas and dark energy. Doors at 6:30pm.
Enjoy a beer and a few bites while learning about astronomy, testing your astro-trivia knowledge, and maybe even leaving with a prize! This all-ages evening is open to the public. These events are known to fill up, so there’s no harm in arriving early!
Also at Mountains Walking, Josh Moore returns with a solo set on Monday, November 11th, from 6–8pm. The North Carolina native is the lead guitarist for Laney Lou & the Bird Dogs – and croons, too! Moore’s solo acoustic show features a healthy blend of originals and covers. Sometimes described as a musically gifted goofball, he’ll bring a mix of good-feelin’ folk and bluegrass to the brewery.
And don’t forget to drink for a cause! Mountains Walking hosts regular Pint Nights with a portion of brew sales directed toward the missions of regional nonprofits. Featured organizations in the coming weeks include Can the Griz on Nov. 18th and the Gallatin Valley Food Bank on Nov. 28th. Both will be held from 4–8pm.
Located at 422 Plum Ave., Mountains Walking is open seven days a week from 11:30am–8pm. Drop in for Taco Tuesday or Wing Wednesday and get two shells or a half-dozen wings for only $10 – don’t worry, both come with a brew of choice!
