Oktoberfest Long Weekend @ Murray's Brewery 2018

Oktoberfest has become a very popular event and beer style to produce in other parts of the world, including at Murray’s Brewery at Bobs Farm, Port Stephens.

Murray’s Oktoberfest festival starts on Saturday 29 September on the long weekend and runs for a month. They’ll be releasing at two festival beers including a traditional Oktoberfest beer (or should they say Oktoberfest-style beer!) which is smooth, clean, and rather rich, with a depth of malt character.

For the first time, there’ll also be a chocolate/hazelnut Dessert Beer released for the festival, created in collaboration with DoughHeads of Newcastle!

There will be loads of festival food specials to accompany their German-style beers – think schnitzels, sausages (maybe not 400,000 of them though), and pretzels with house made mustard.

Free family concerts will run on the October long weekend – with the amazing band, The Lamplighters, headlining on Sunday 30 September.

Festivities run across weekends all month. So break out the lederhosen, start practising your oompah-pahs and celebrate the world’s biggest festival, down under, at Bobs Farm this October.
