Head Chef George Powell cooks up a special German treat on Oktoberfest: we offer real German bratwurst, home-made saurkraut, fresh red-cabbage, pretzels and German cobblers.
German Beer
To complement your German meal, brewmaster Don Thompson and head brewer Ty Phelps make a special Oktoberfest brew.
German Music
2005 Oktoberfest goers rock out to Brave Combo.
What Oktoberfest would be complete without area music? This year, North by Northwest has welcomes Oma and the Oompahs, The Tubameisters and Steven Doster & Will Sexton.
