Midland’s Beer Garden has reopened for service on Fridays and Saturdays from 3 p.m. to midnight at 7112 W. Highway 80.
The bar and restaurant, which had a large selection of draft craft beer, ciders and wine with 74 taps, closed in May of 2020. The venue has hosted events, such as drag brunches and pottery painting events, despite being closed. The Beer Garden has greenhouse seating, outdoor seating and a stage for small concerts.
This weekend, the venue will host karaoke with DJ Frank on Friday and Dueling Pianos on Saturday. Tickets for Dueling Pianos are available at https://www.eventbrite.com/e/dueling-pianos-at-the-beer-garden-21-only-tickets-297465867417?fbclid=IwAR3ggfp8DSxN88pqOVfCjvrM3VhhswufBg9suUXE0WDzXwFmhYvu21Kdrf0.
