Laura NovakIt’s that wunderbar time of year again when the Marzen beers roll out and we celebrate Oktoberfest with delicious drinks. Oktoberfest in Cleveland marks the changing of the seasons and gives us permission to get cozy with our hearty beers and settle in for the cold months ahead. While there’s still plenty of time to enjoy Oktoberfest any wise beer drinker knows to make a list, check it twice, threes times even and make a plan to sample every bit of Oktober-y goodness. Here’s a few places to get you started -
Buckeye Beer Engine
First stop is the Buckeye Beer Engine. Known for its large beer selection the Beer Engine delivers the same for Oktoberfest. Beginning Friday, September 25, the Beer Engine will offer a variety of Craft and Import Oktoberfest Beer such as Warsteiner, Dundee, Left Hand, Brooklyn, Spaten, Bells, Ayinger, Hofbrau, Thirsty Dog, and more.
Located on Madison in Lakewood Beer Engine has a refinished patio (enjoy it while you can – has heaters!) and the most yummy-delicious Kobe beef hot dog on a pretzel bun ever!
- Great Lakes Oktoberfest
Great Lakes Brewing Company
Don’t miss Oktoberfest starting this Friday, September 25 at 4pm through Saturday, September 26 at the Great Lakes Brewing Company! The event includes live music, a German inspired menu, ”Keep the Ceramic Stein” Special and Great Lakes Oktoberfest on tap.
If you’re a fan of German cuisine the list includes Wienerschnitzel, Sauerbraten, German Sausage and Franks, Fried Pickles, Dumplings, Cabbage and Pretzels. No prices are listed, but GLBC food generally runs high so maybe save up for the event or just enjoy the beer. You know the beer is always good, especially Oktoberfest.
The Pub in Rocky River – Das Boot Debuts
From our previous post you can tell that Laurel and I are already Pub fans and now there’s another reason to Luv The Pub. Starting this week The Pub is offering 28oz. boots filled with Warsteiner for $10. Das Boot is yours to keep and bring back for $8 refills of the beer of your choice.
- Celebrating Beatles Week
The plastic boots even come with a lanyard so you can carry it with you around the bar – though I wouldn’t suggest hanging a full beer around your neck!
Genießen Sie Oktoberfest!
Now, I know there are many more bars in Cleveland celebrating Oktoberfest but I certainly don’t want to ruin the fun of discovering them. These suggestions will get you started, oh, and buzzed. So as they say in Germany (according to the babelfish translation) Genießen Sie Oktoberfest! Enjoy Oktoberfest!
