🍺 October Keg Tapping: Festbier Takes the Stage It’s the best month of the year — ’Fest Season — so we’re throwing a tapping party worthy of Prince Ludwig himself.
Raise a stein for Festbier, our classic Märzen‑style lager: amber, malty‑sweet, and finished with that signature hop spice that’s been fueling celebrations for over 200 years. ABV 5.9% | IBU 21
🍽️ Paired With Schweinebraten Comfort Slow‑roasted, bier‑basted, and built for fall. Enjoy tender slices of Pork Roast covered in rich Bier Gravy, served with Sauerkraut, Mashed Potatoes, and a hearty vegetable garnish.
🎶 Music &amp; Tradition All Night Mike Farrenkopf w/ Squeezin' &amp; Wheezin' fire up the fun at 6 PM, followed by our lively keg tapping parade at 7 PM.
Come celebrate the season the Bavarian way — bier, food, music, and pure Oktoberfest spirit.
