ARE YOU SURE BROWNTOWN ISN'T WEIRD ENOUGH FOR YOU YET?

(Ed.'s Note: It's doubtful that anyone knows the city's downtown core better than the Kraken's Danny Alvarado, whose joint at 1123 E Adams St. has been open – even through COVID – since 2015. He was even been named the Honorable Catrin Of The Year in 2025. A purveyor of "hot beer and cold pizza," he also provides live music throughout the week. But you must be ready for a raucous, loud time and a lively crowd. Alvarado, one of the first supporters of each month's downtown First Friday fiesta, is an enthusiastic live music advocate, but your taste must be eclectic, or don't even walk in the door. For him and Kraken regulars every Friday is a first Friday. You go, boy!)
Danny get a new paint job from downtown artist Alejandra Zertuche.
And a few familiar faces outside The Kraken Bar.

Austin is weird.
Brownsville is normal and ordinary.

FACT
