It’s time once again for the greatest beer-centric event in all of Itasca County: Klocktoberfest!

There will be games, there will be food, there will be music, there will be children’s bouncy castles for pete’s sake! We’re talking giant whack-a-mole here. Additional games will be run by local non-profits including the Itasca Curling Club, Great Tails Animal Rescue, and United Way 1000 Lakes. Think you have what it takes to win at Nagelspiel? Only one way to find out! Just be sure to bring cash to participate in the various non-profit run games!

But I hear you asking, will there be beer?? Yes, yes, a thousand times yes, including the return of our annual fest bier: MÜNCHKIN! It’s a perennial favorite, and will only be back for a limited time. So get it while the getting is good, particularly while at Klocktoberfest!

Music during the day will begin with the polka stylings of Nathan Neuman from noon until 4, setting the mood early for the day. Sandwiched in the middle are the talented Lindula Brothers from 4:30 to 6:30. And starting at 7, the return of that glorious folk trio, MorningBird! For food, we’ll have Singing Chihuahua Tacos and Borealis Creamery Ice Cream.

Come early, stay late, have a designated driver, and we’ll see you on the 28th!!
