Brews & Blooms: Oktoberfest!

Event Series (See All)

September 18 @ 3:00 pm 10:00 pm

Prost! Brews & Blooms is back for one more round — Oktoberfest style!

Raise a stein and celebrate the season with an evening of live music, German food, Hammerschlagen, and plenty of beer, including local favorites and German brews on tap.

Settle into the Victorian Gardens with friends and neighbors, enjoy the music, test your skills at Hammerschlagen, and soak up the atmosphere of a traditional Wisconsin Oktoberfest with a distinctly Wauwatosa twist.

What to expect:

  • Live music
  • German food
  • Local and German beer on tap
  • Hammerschlagen
  • Beer garden games
  • The beautiful historic grounds and Victorian Gardens of the Kneeland-Walker House

Come in your lederhosen or dirndl if the spirit moves you, bring your friends, and help us send off the Brews & Blooms season with a proper Prost!

Brews & Blooms is more than a beer garden. It’s a way to bring people together at one of Wauwatosa’s most treasured historic places. Every purchase supports the Wauwatosa Historical Society and our work to preserve, share, and celebrate Wauwatosa’s history.

Brews & BloomsvOktoberfest will feature live music both nights, Hammerschlagen games and authentic German fare!
