MK Biergarten Oktoberfest

On Saturday the 28th October the MK Biergarten and York House Centreare collaborating to celebrate the most famous of all German beer festivals. Between 12pm and 10pm, the York House Community Centre will play host to a traditional German Oktoberfest bar, Bavarian food and oompah style music.

In the main room of York House, staff in traditional Bavarian dress will be serving Paulaner Oktoberfestbier and Paulaner Weissbier. For visitors who would like to toast the event with a local brew, Hornes Brewery from Bow Brickhill will have a small Real Ale bar upstairs. The brass band Der Huffunpuffers will entertain the thirsty crowds from 7pm with Bavarian style oompah music.

MK Biergarten has made all efforts to keep the event as authentic as possible, while making use of the wonderful range of local businesses the area has to offer. Food will be provided by the street food businesses Urban Grilla and Good Times Cafe UK. Urban Grilla will be serving traditional German beer sausages, made by Bourton Farmed Foods from Buckingham, and Good Times Cafe will tempt visitors with hot cheese sandwiches. On the bar giant pretzels from Geoff's Real Artisan Bread, also based in Buckingham, will be on sale all day.

Entry is £10 on the door or £8 in advance on www.mkbiergarten.co.uk and includes a commemorative glass and a first pint. Entry will be limited to 500 guests so advance purchase is advised. Children are welcome until 8pm and their entry is free. Anyone attending in traditional dress will receive a £2 discount on the door. A small selection of wine and soft drinks will be available on the day.

Prost!
