Hobby Week is on till the fourth of September, that means there’s another whole weekend (not to mention weekdays too) of super fun activities! Here’s a quick low down of what Bangaloreans are in for -

There’s a cocktail workshop by brew master Balakrishnan Subramanyan being held TOMORROW (30th August) from 8:00–10:00 PM at the Cafe g77 in Indiranagar. Be there for some pro tips on how to completely own the bar at your next house party.

Then, take things to a newer high (ahem) with John Eapen and his Beer Workshop on Thursday, 31st Aug — again at Cafe g77 from 7:30–10:30 PM. He’s gonna be spilling the beans on how to brew beer, with lots of interesting info about the history and process. You can join in here.
