After a decade on the job, brewing beer and building community spirit, Pint and Plow owner Jeremy Walther decided he needed a party to give back and celebrate the Clay Street eatery and brewery’s status us a community destination.

So, on Saturday, Walther and his team, including his son and wife, hosted the 10th-anniversary party, or, as he dubbed it, the “Hobo Gala.” The event featured a $ 100-per-plate steak lunch or dinner, with proceeds going to the Doyle Community Center, a new anniversary beer and three musical acts — all Kerr County-based.

The day also featured tile-making by the Kerr County Love Project, a group that aims to help Kerr County heal from the July 4 flood through art, and the Schreiner University graphic design department, which hosted its always-popular block-printing lessons.

Another highlight featured storytelling by Clifton Fifer, Nick Villanueva and Mayor Joe Herring Jr., who shared the story of the first time he met Walther, when he was looking for a location for the brewery.

The event featured musical performances by Three Of A Kind, the Travis Pierce Band and Aaron Lacombe. Pierce’s performance marked a sort of homecoming for the Kerrville native, who had spent the last year living in Hawaii before coming home.
