9/22/2018 -- BareWolf Brings Oktoberfest to Amesbury

Oktoberfest featuring "Marzen Retrograde" bier, themed food, two bands, indoor/outdoor pouring.

(Amesbury, MA - September 6, 2018) Don your dirndls and lederhosen because BareWolf Brewing is back at it again! On Saturday September 22 from 12-10 PM join locals, beer nerds, dogs and families to welcome the start of Oktoberfest. Celebrating in traditional fashion this 7-barrel brewery is releasing new beers in their outdoor beer garden (rain or shine) while award-winning chef Nick Peters Bond of Kitchen-to-Aisle catering serves German-style food. Two bands, Bonus Cat and Blondes & Brunettes, will pack a punch with live music sets outside the brewery’s location at 12 Oakland St in Amesbury, MA.

Adding their own signature quirky twist to this 100 year old festival BareWolf is releasing their very first Oktoberfest bier ‘Marzen Retrograde’. The Marzen style beer dates back to pre-refrigeration and was historically made in the month of March (the last seasonably cool month for fermentation) and consumed through summer and early fall. BareWolf has timed their festival to coincide with this year’s true start of Oktoberfest (September 22nd) a 16-18 day folk festival held in Munich, Bavaria, Germany. The event always ends on the first Sunday in October. Women typically wear dirndls (a traditional dress) while men sport leather lederhosen shorts, however these outfits are not required!

Creativity is at the core of BareWolf’s mission - the brewery has intentionally chosen to not stick to a flagship beer but instead reinvent the tap list on a monthly basis. The microbrewery supports local artists with weekly live music, rotating art exhibits, and a monthly Thursday trivia night hosted by Amesbury poet laureate Stephen R. Wagner. The Oktoberfest party will extend from the tents in the parking lot to the indoor taproom, which is also available for hosting events. Nine beers will be on draft and cans are available for take-home enjoyment. Visit www.barewolfbrewing.com or find them on Facebook for more information.
