Oktoberfest Party!

Oans, zwoa, drei, g’suffa: the party of the year is here! Oktoberfest returns to the Barrel Room Saturday, August 30th, from 12 to 6PM: this time bigger and better than ever.

We’re taking the party outside into our parking lot! We’ll be pouring beer outside all day from our pour trailer, as well as indoors at the bar, and we’ll have specialty build-your-own radlers and shandies available for imbibing. Enjoy the sunshine, have a pint (or a few), and celebrate Oktoberfest in the Springs.

We’ll be here rain or shine, with a tent ready at the pour trailer in case of any incoming weather. And don’t forget those dirndls, lederhosen, and sausage tossing skills! Everyone's encouraged to dress in their most Oktober-festive attire, and we'll have our traditional slate of games to keep this Oktoberfest party rolling. Our own Elliot Cromer will be master of ceremonies for the day's events, and A Cut Above and Dobo’s Delights will be joining us with eats.

And, of course, don’t forget the beer: Festbier Pale German Lager and Oktoberfest Märzen will be flowing all night long.

Fest Events:
12:00 | The Party Starts!
3:00 | Stein Holding Contest
4:00 | Sausage Toss
5:00 | Costume Contest
5:45 | Last Call

Note: to keep everyone safe during the party, we will not be filling glass/ceramic steins this year. We apologize for the inconvenience, and promise there’s plenty of fun still to be had!

From Emily + Jeremy:
"Emily and Jeremy Combs are a married art duo based in Springfield, Ohio. Together they have crisscrossed the nation doing outdoor art festivals, gathering inspiration for their art along the way. Their current body of work is titled “Wood Mosaics” and is made entirely using hand tools. Wood is cut using a jigsaw, then carved, burned, sanded and stained. The wood pieces are assembled together like a puzzle or mosaic. Emily and Jeremy hope that “Wood Mosaics” inspires others to seek adventure and to never stop exploring."
