SUMMARY:Katies Staying Alive 70's Disco
DESCRIPTION:  \n✨🪩 Katie’s Disco Farewell 🪩✨ \nAs some of you know\, Katie will be heading off to LA at the end of October—and we couldn’t let her leave without giving her a proper send-off! 💃 \nSo we’re turning the brewery into a 70s disco paradise—because if Katie’s going\, she’s going out with “More Than a Woman” and plenty of “Good Times.” \nKatie’s been pure “Boogie Wonderland” to work with\, and while we’ll “Stayin’ Alive” here at the brewery\, we’re really going to miss her groove. \nLet’s light up the dance floor one last time together—“Don’t Stop ‘Til You Get Enough!” \nSorry for the dad jokes!
