For those of you who can’t make it to Deutschland, don’t panic. Albert’s Schloss have got the Steins at the ready for the return of their infamous Oktoberfest.
With three weeks of Bavarian brews, delicious new dishes, and non-stop live entertainment that will have guest dancing on the tables – in true Bavarian style – the Soho bier palace are offering it all!
Running from 20th September to 12th October, Albert’s Schloss Oktoberfest is open to all, no ticket required. Playing host to traditional keg tapping, live oompah and brass bands, and ‘the best lederhosen’ competition, they are sure to prove their Bayern credentials.
There is a different showtime entertainment theme planned each day – with favourites including the Baby Grand Slam, two dueling pianos, and a full band playing requests. This is also a Disko Wunderbar night which is expected to be largely popular, where 70s classics will be given an Oktoberfest brass band twist.
There will also be classic Oktoberfest games and wurst-eating contests… because what’s a beer festival without a bit of friendly competition? Not only this, but guests will be welcomed to stein holding, pretzel tossing, guess the sausage and Bavarian hat throwing.
Albert’s Schloss is one of the only venues in the world that offers six festival beers under one roof – the only beers served at the official Munich Oktoberfest – and are therefore serving the most authentic taste of Oktoberfest that you can get.
Paprika-roasted half chicken, 12-hr brined crispy Schweinshaxe pork knuckle, a Sausage Festival dish of authentic wursts, and the award-winning Baron burger will all be served up in the Cook Haus restaurant and there will also be a selection of authentic Alpine cocktails available – if beer isn’t your thing. Choices include: Oktoberfest Spritz, A Blood Orange and Ginger Spritz or a Munchen Long Island, all mixed with Monkey 47.
100 free beers will be given to the first festival guests on Saturday 20th September, as soon as doors open at noon, and after selling over 3,000 litres of beer across the festival in London last year, Albert’s Schloss are sure to stack the kegs even higher this year.
