28 Songs Brewhouse + Kitchen coming to Main and Market
Boerne’s brewing and restaurant scene keeps growing, and the latest addition coming in spring 2023 is keeping the ball rolling on both fronts. The planned 28 Songs Brewhouse + Kitchen will be the first brewery on North Main Street and owners vow to have something for everyone’s tastes.

But when I went for a second opinion, I was diagnosed with microvascular disease. I’ve never even heard of that before. What is it? Dear Reader: You’ve introduced a topic of great importance to women of all ages: the fact that cardiovascular disease often takes a different form -- and comes with different symptoms -- in women than in men. 09/21/2022 12:00 AM
