Official hotel of our 3rd annual Gettin' Sauced!

We are pleased to announce that, for the first time, we have a hotel sponsor for Gettin' Sauced! For this year's event, the exclusive hotel sponsor is DoubleTree by Hilton Austin University! If you're unfamiliar, it's at the intersection of the I-35 N frontage road and MLK, across the interstate from the Frank Erwin Center and next to Denny's. You can't miss it. They will offer a Gettin' Sauced! group rate of $115/night, good for the night before (Oct 26) and/or the night of (Oct 27) the event. (Click here to book.) They just underwent a multi-million-dollar renovation and are an easy 2.4 miles from the venue, Hops & Grain Brewery. FREE parking. FREE wireless internet. And, of course, the signature warm chocolate chip cookie upon check-in!  Some other hotel facts:
