Oktoberfest is back with a vengeance, at Der Biergarten on Marietta Street! Complete with a Beer Tasting, Brat-Eating Contest, Oktoberfest Tweet Up, and Oktoberfest Olympics, you don’t need to head to Germany to experience all the fun.

It kicks off on Saturday, September 22, with the traditional tapping of the keg, and runs every weekend until October 6th.

For true German beer-lovers, Der Biergarten offers one of the most authentic experiences in the state. Connoisseurs will know the restaurant carries 18 selections on tap, more than any other German draft beer anywhere else in the South East. This Oktoberfest, they’ll be the only restaurant in Georgia pouring Paulaner Weisn on draft.

Register in advance for the $35 beer-tasting on September 26th. For everything else, pay-as-you-drink (or eat).

What: Oktoberfest – “Munich on Marietta Street”
Where: Der Biergarten, Downtown, Marietta Street

Who can resist beer, bratwurst, live music and a taste of Germany, right here in Atlanta? Not me, for sure!
