It’s not yet October but Oktoberfest is on many people’s minds–it can soon be in many people’s mouths as well, thanks to Nubo’s Oktoberfest celebration Thursday, Sept. 22.
The second annual Oktoberfest party at New Bohemia Brewing Co., from 5 to 10 p.m., features a fabulous German beer garden menu by Tanglewood Catering (more food details below) plus live German/polka music.
But first, the beer: Nubo specializes in traditional European-style lagers. On Thursday, Nubo will be tapping its “Festbier” which will be served in special liter-size Oktoberfest steins. Customers can also purchase souvenir steins to take home starting Sept. 22.
Tanglewood chef Rachel Hughes, special guest for the night, is serving food from 6 to 9 p.m. I’ve had a couple dishes of hers and highly recommend her cooking.
