“FlocktoberFest” at Drake Brewery in Berkeley (Sept. 16-18)

Prost! Drake’s final frolic of summer is September 16-18 at the Barrel House, Dealership and The BARN. Get ready for a Bavarian bacchanal! Flocktoberfest celebrates steins galore, juicy bratwurst, and the return of our Flocktoberfest German-style Helles Lager! This pale, easy-drinking brew presents a pleasant malt sweetness that’s soft and bready, balanced with a noble hop character that’s floral and low in bitterness. Drink your fill on DRAFT before the big pours, steins, and frequent toasting runs the lager dry! Entry is FREE, beer and food cost money.

DAS BOOT returns as the badass vessel every good lager needs! Snag our commemorative Flocktoberfest Boot PLUS a half-liter fill starting FRIDAY (9/16). These boots WILL SELL OUT, so don’t dilly dally!

Each Drake’s location will have a special lineup of food and entertainment. All the details are below. Break out your lederhosen and dust off your dirndls. Festive attire is highly encouraged!
