Moontown is throwing its fourth annual Oktoberfest – a raucous celebration of the birthplace of dank beer, complete with live music, friendly competitions, the tapping of our Oktoberfest lager, and delicious German-inspired fare.

The 21 and up party will last all afternoon on Saturday, September 18th and will take over Moontown Brewing Company’s entire facility (brewpub, event space, and garden lawn). We’ll be tapping our Oktoberfest lager, “Follow the Lederhosen” at 3pm with discounted Moontown beer ($5/pint!), German-inspired menu items, and live music from 3:1 Band! There will be a German Costume Contest, Stein-holding Competition, attendance Raffle Prizes and more! Space is limited to ticketed guests only, so grab those tickets now – this will be a day you don’t want to miss.

Each ticket will include admission, a free Oktoberfest t-shirt, one drink ticket and live music.
