Easy Tiger announced Sept. 18 it will permanently close its original downtown location at 709 E. Sixth St., Austin. “This is a bittersweet moment. 6th Street is our birthplace, where we baked our first loaves of bread and poured our first craft beers,” the owners wrote in a social media post. Easy Tiger remains open at the Linc, 6406 N. I-35, Ste. 1100, Austin, and still plans to open its South Austin location at 3508 S. Lamar Blvd., Austin, in the space previously occupied by Red’s Porch. www.easytigerusa.com
