Get ready for five nights of laughs, rare oktoberfest beers on tap, and unforgettable performances at The Function, San Francisco’s brand new Black-owned comedy club!

Join us from September 29th to October 3rd as we celebrate Oktoberfest with top-tier comedians who usually grace the stages of Punchline, Cobb’s, or SF Sketchfest—but this time, they’re bringing the heat to The Function!

Comedy Lineup:
We’ve curated a stellar lineup of comics who will have you laughing all night long. You won’t want to miss this incredible showcase of talent in an intimate, up-close setting!

Exclusive Oktoberfest Beers on Tap:

To make the experience even better, we’ve scored two rare beers you’ll find on tap this season:

  • Firestone Oaktoberfest Oak Aged Lager – 5.2 ABV – A seasonal Firestone Walker classic, Oktoberfest Oak Aged Lager is matured in oak barrels to deliver smooth, rich, and biscuity flavors. Limited edition. $8 HH / $9
  • Shiner Oktoberfest Lager – 5.7 ABV – This märzen-style ale is made with the highest-quality two-row barley, Munich and caramel malts, and german-grown hallertau tradition and hersbrucker hops for a rich flavor and dry, moderately hoppy finish. $8HH / $9

These beers are rare finds on tap (we’ve scored one of the few kegs in San Francisco and have just 120 pints of each), and we’re pouring them for just $9 each! Come grab a pint (or two) while they last!

Arrive Early for Happy Hour:
Doors open early, and happy hour is in full swing until 7:00 p.m., with $1 off most beers! The perfect way to kick off the night before the comedy starts.
