Oktoberfest at Tallboy & Moose

Overview

Get ready to swap your flat white for a frothy märzen because Preston is about to become a mini Munich. Or, at least Tallboy & Moose will when it hosts its Oktoberfest party from 4pm on Friday, September 22.

It's not just a party, though. The electricity of competition will also be in the air. Six local homebrew heroes from the Merri Mashers Homebrew Club will be competing in a German brew showdown on the night. And the best part? You get to decide who will take home the title of People's Choice Champion. Who says democracy is dead?

Tallboy & Moose isn't just sitting on the sidelines. It will be slinging two special Oktoberfest beers: Prost in Translation märzen and Sleight of Hand schwarzbier. The night will also have its own Oktoberfest menu featuring weisswurst, bratwurst, weisn hendl (roast chicken) and kartoffelsalat (potato salad).

There's also going to be 'bretzels' and 'boobzels', as well as other salty takes on body parts available on the night thanks to German Baking Queen. Oh, and free tastings of each beer entered in the homebrew competition will also be available on the night, to add a nice cherry on top of what's shaping up to be an Oktoberfest celebration to remember.

PS: a word of advice? Book a table. Spots are bound to fill up faster than you can say prost.
