Kraftoberfest 2017

Overview

If we had a dollar for every Oktoberfest-themed or related event that was happening in Brisbane from the end of September through the whole month of October, we'd have quite a few dollars indeed. Brews, German food, you know the drill — but Saccharomyces Beer Cafe is giving their addition to the fold a little twist.

At Kraftoberfest, you won't just drink beer like you're in Berlin (well, not quite given that you can buy alcohol in supermarkets there, but you get the gist). No, you'll sip Germany's finest and Australia's as well, and then decide which emerges victorious.

Five beverages of each will be on offer, served in Aussie-German pairs. For each drink you buy, you get a token to vote. Entry is free, but for $30 you'll receive your own stein to keep — and your first five beers to go in it — plus an appropriately themed meal, an extra voting token and a free Weihenstaphan hat.
